Bases to expand the invasion of the middle east are built and the countries themselves are no better off than they were before the western world "intervened".

So what? Not an excuse for massacring civilians. It wasn't the responsibility of the British to rebuild Washington DC when they burned it down, and it's not our responsibility to care for Middle Eastern countries like little children because they ended up on the wrong side of geopolitical affairs. Cuba was basically excommunicated by the United States and left to rot, and they are one of the more stable and successful countries in Latin America (which isn't saying much).

Plenty of countries throughout history have been ravaged by brutal invaders and turned out just fine. I support a change in our foreign policy as much as anyone, but I draw the line at condoning terrorism because they "have no other option".
