Hey, I’d gladly take the western dollars and innovation away from them and let them fend for themselves.
In that case there will be no dictator and they will all look like Afghanistan. Tribal warfare. Fine by me, I wish we didn’t interfere.
As long as they stay in their own country I don’t care what happens to them. They can behead their wives, stone their people and cut off the hands of thiefs, just don’t expect the western civilized countries to welcome you with open arms. They get no money or technology from us either.
Works for me.
Problem with that theory is the MB will be supported by Iran, which will further harm US interest re: oil.
