I see what you mean, but I'm not sure that's such an easy question? Imagine if Israel, the US and UK hadn't funded and spread ISIS and Al-Qaeda throughout the region. Look back at how Iran was before the West decided a pliable dictator would be preferable. Look at how Syria was before the west decided they wanted that oil. Look at what Gaddafi was trying to achieve in Libya before the west decided they didn't want that. Lebanon somehow remains quite western. My point is that a lot of the Middle East is the way it is because of the West and our destructive behaviours. | |||||||||||||||||

What if Rome never fell? You can’t look at a country in isolation and ask why it’s so important globally. |
