The movie Syriana summed up the state of Arab Muslim nations (and extrapolate to all Muslim nations) and what the rest of the world thinks of them:
“What are they thinking? They’re thinking that it’s running out, it’s running out and 90% of what’s left is in the Middle East. Look at the progression, Versailles, Suez, 1973, Gulf War 1, Gulf War 2. This is a fight to the death. So what are THEY thinking? Great! They’re thinking keep playing, keep buying yourself new toys, keep spending $50,000 a night on your hotel room, but don’t invest in your infrastructure… don’t build a real economy. So that when you finally wake up, they will have sucked you dry, and you will have squandered the greatest natural resource in history.”
