I agree, but that's a bit of a leap... say, like colonizing Pluto. I said evolution is the only solution because until they have the ability to master their opposable thumbs to do something other than aim their prayer rugs at Mecca and fire rockets, economic growth is a fantasy.
These people are cavemen. They need to be treated the way the British used to do it. Best way to do that these days is with a strongman.
Don't gimme no "that's heartless" shit. Ask any Arab with sense. The nuts only understand the stick.
