I don't think middle eastern countries can function without a good dictatorship in place. Find me a good democracy in the middle east (other than israel) - there is none.

I agree. The bleeding hearts may cry out about human rights violations, but it's better than what happens when a foreign country steps in.

Turkey
It's the only country that isn't really middle east and isn't really europe.
It's a country with many similarities to middle eastern countries but wit a secular state democratic government.
Where the military has the constitutionary DUTY to watch over this secular state.
(And yes, there have been some military coups in the past 80 years since, but they always returned power to the people.)

One of them being a genocide...
