"In the end, most Americans simply don't care what happens to the
Middle East aside from Israel. They'd like the region to be free;
they're happy when everyone gets to vote. They don't give a fig about
Libya but it would be nice if Egypt was safe, what with all those
museums and the like. They'd be perfectly fine if every nation in the
Middle East was like France - open, free, stable, great vacation
destinations, full of politicians and intellectuals who didn't like
the US but confined the rhetoric to tart epigrams or unreadable
academic polemics. It's the seething sectarian nutwad component that
makes people weary. The looped scripts, the Jew-slagging, the
misplaced blame, the unslakable aching sense of injustice over things
that happened 500 years ago. Okay, well, sorry about the Crusades. Now
you Persians apologize for Ionia and the war on the Greeks. C'mon.
C'monnn, ya knuckleheads. I knew Darius, and he was a Party. Animal.
But let's send it all to the big Bygone House and hug, for Mr.
Planet's sake! (Bill Murray for UN Secretary General. Seriously.)"

Coulnd't have put it better myself. :)
