Partial measures aren't the problem, the wrong measures are the problem.
UT I feel a touch like a broken record on that one, what's needed is a Marshall plan for the ME, massive economic stimulus, give them jobs and SUVs and watch the decrepit dictatorships and terrorist sympathies slip away. Really is that simple. Apart from Saudi, US backing and Suadi Royal policies have created a country so FUBARed if they leave I don't know what the answer is.
