Who used to hide it? The despots? Not well enough (obviously, look at this amateur hour cover-up). The people who call despots despots? That doesn't make any sense at all.
What you'll have to confront, eventually, is that the people at the center of your theory of everything that's wrong with the middle east have long pointed these things out and sought (at least some) of the changes you seek. It is local support which perpetuates this state of affairs. You think that "the people" have been subdued...but history and current events have shown us that "the people" are onboard with this, provided that the despot is their despot.
Would you, for example..like I, wish that the ksa was rearranged as a secular western democracy (like canadia, for example)? Do you think that "the people" want that, or just us?
