Lighter Skin = Better?

But that is judging some Arab countries by a few cities...which is like judging all of America on the shit that comes out of Texas or Arizona.

Well, I've met my fair share of arabs during my short time on earth, and except for a few cases I've met in Germany, they're generally a relaxed bunch of people. If left alone, they are easily herded, you only need to give them coffee and some flavored tobacco to smoke with their hookahs, nothing more.
Most of the trouble that occurs in Arabia and North Africa is mostly based on how any person who has interest in the rich natural resources can divide society, whether by income, tribe, or religious affiliation(as is the case in Iraq, and Syria), and then pit them against eachother. For Saudi Arabia that's not the case, for they have sold themselves out a long a time ago, however countries like Syria, Lebanon, Iraq and Palestine, with a deep history in Arab nationalism simply refuse to cooperate with western powers, and are, in accordance, stricken by war.
That's about it.
