Quote:That is one heavy brick to move. So you picture it as if it was "so simple", but the price to be payed in exchange of changing Arab dictators is so so big.Sure, sure..it's a heavy lift. Obviously that's why we don't do it as often as we might like, too. It's cheaper to keep her. It is the solution to the problem, however. I think we agree there? You surely don't expect that changing out the person in the dictators funny hat will amount to societal improvement. I'm even willing to go out on a limb and say that you understand completely well how sectarian governments fail. What you want for your future and what I would wish for your future are the same things....don't you think?
If you woke up tomorrow, and kSA was Canadia in the desert, that'd be kosher, right?
Europe and the west was in our shoes exactly; and had two world wars -that caused legendary casualties- followed by a series of wars ongoing until now. Arabs and Muslims are 100 million life behind the west.
Canada proved to be a better country than KSA in terms of human rights. It's a place I look forward to go to. And just to repeat and stress: justice is the main reason I carry that respect to countries like Canada.

Yeah, it wouldn't have anything to do with them being supported by the people in their countries, would it?
They are supported by a "portion" of the people, doesn't even equate to all.
Usually it is fear that make millions submit.

By a "soul" here I meant "style/decoration"; I wasn't referring to the human soul. Accept my apology.
In other words; Biology is a "special type of mechanical processes".
