I believe the bedouin mindset is genetically programmed into the Arab DNA, except, perhaps, for a few years in the middle ages when they seemingly were more productive.

That, combined with the religious belief that allah wills everything and, thus, allah wills them to be backward [when allah decides to will them to be successful, they will be successful], renders the Arab world pre-destined for failure.

I know the Kuwaitis and the Saudis have this saying "inshallah" which basically means god willing, if god wants it to happen it will, if not it will not, basically an excuse to not have to do jack shit.

I couldn't care less if the Rabs and Muslimes choose to be unproductive, but, don't then blame your failed culture on evil America and Israel

Democracy is Doomed in Arab World

In Libya and most other countries in the Arab world, what we know as personal liberty is nonexistent. According to Freedom House’s 2011 “Freedom in the World” survey, as well as Amnesty International’s annual report for 2011, most North African and Middle Eastern countries are ranked either “repressive” or “not free.” Moreover, I believe there’s little prospect for Arabs ever being free and that Western encouragement and hopes for democracy are doomed to failure and disappointment.

Most nations in the Middle East do not share the philosophical foundations of the West. It’s not likely liberty-oriented values will ever emerge in cultures that have disdain for the rule of law and private property rights and that sanction barbaric practices such as the stoning of women for adultery, the severing of hands or beheading as a form of punishment, and imprisonment for criticizing or speaking ill of the government
