No, what you're advocating is us taking responsibility for their problems. The white guilt levels required to look at the murder of 129 innocent civilians as our fault are astounding.

Do you not understand that the US government has played an instrumental role in the Syrian civil war by funding and training the rebels? That we have done the same in Libya? This isn't comparable to some Viking raid that happened a thousand years ago. US imperialism is directly responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Arabs in the past five years. All so we could have an oil pipeline through Syria to Europe from Saudi Arabia rather than Iran so the corporations that run our government can make more money.
Would Muslim Arabia be a shining beacon of liberalism without Western interference? Of course not. But to imply that the US and the West are blameless here is pretty hypocritical.
