As an ex resident of those parts of the world - my view has been the rest of the world should stay the fuck out until they can at least make the effort to understand that part of the world - ideally by spending several years living amongst the people of both sides and of all classes...
Misunderstandings cause some fuckups - but add ignorance and an ill informed beleif you are right and enough firepower to mean you dont have to think too hard about the consequences - then you have all you need for a monumental fuckup that will echo through the centuries...
Hmm - and 800 years laters the place is *still* fucked up and everyone seems determined to fuck it up all the more...
