This is the reason why we should not get involved in the ME at all. Leave them to their backwardness.
To those that support intervention in Syria: youre gonna get more of this yet you cant seem to learn your lesson.

It's a bit alarming that an armed group can just walk into the US Embassy in Lybia and kill the Ambassador.
Can't help feeling that this is what comes of propping up dictators for decades and then suddenly changing sides though. All the 'Arab Spring' has produced is a load of fragile governments who don't control their countries and even if they did are extreme enough to be a direct concern to the rest of the world. This is precisely why Russia and China are trying to prop up Assad.
