This is as brief as I can make it outlining what is unfolding before our eyes throughout the Arab world. This is the way I see it, I could be wrong.
- If we were to understand that the US and Europe have geopolitical, military and economic interests in the Arab world, and
- If we were to understand that Muslim extremists are a good breeding ground for terrorists, and
- If working to keep said Muslim extremists/terrorists grounded in the Arab world and away from the lands of Europe and the US constitutes a sound policy of theirs, and
- If securing for Islamic political organizations a measure of political power and economic controls would realize such policy, and
- If we were to understand that the pursuit of stability in the Arab world is an indispensable strategy to secure the interests of the US and Europe, and
- If we were to understand that rulers of the Arab world invariably are heartless and habitually oppress their people, and
- If we were to understand that in such perennially soulless and hopeless conditions, religion is the best opium to feed the people, and that Islamic political organizations are best vehicle to deliver a heavy dose of religion, and that drugged people do not emit too much energy, thus stability, then
- Policies, strategies and actions emanating from the US and Europe would make utter sense and by definition would not in the foreseeable future, if ever, take into consideration the well-being of the people throughout the Arab world, their development and progress, and
- It will be, always has been, up to said people to continually and doggedly seek the leadership, political system, national policies and societal norms that would allow them to attain their aspired to and desirable high standards of life.

A nation needs morals and ethics to survive and thrive. If those factors are gone, the nation is gone.
