our direct involvement in the Middle East (propping up some countries while installing/supporting dictators in the others) started to get pretty fucking unbelievable about 60 years ago.

You mean when they joined Hitler and were defeated? Yeah, tough luck.
Interesting enough, Germany lost too, look how that country turned out post-WWII with a little effort to cooperate in a predominantly modern civilized world... well the world outside the communist killing fields.
But then you'd maybe like to blame the US for the crusades, too? You seem to be missing the opportunity here anyway. Seems to be something they still allarh akbar over, even though the world has dramatically changed from those times... well at least the West did heh. Or how about 200 years ago? Interesting enough the founding fathers went to war in the region back then.
Cant seem to escape it. The first part of that book was written first, it was about peace more or less. It failed and his new religion nearly died out. So he tossed in the rest, with blood and war and all of that, and it renders the first obsolete. There are those who follow the first, but mostly in subjection and fear of the second, or to those that follow that among them. No, there will always be war, as it has been, no matter what you do. Surrender will not repair the problem.
