definately.. but don't forget about Israel's military influence and economic power.. and as soon as we trash Libya the rest of the faithful will fall in line, in only my opnion. They should have their own NATO system and put Turkey in charge of member security. I think Turkey has the potential for being the alliance's leader based upon my prospective of their historical Ottman Empire culture. Turkey being placed in that position would keep the local turkey power brokers united, busy, and focused together on how to make some big bucks on the transformations. Somehow strong credable economics is always the end result that feeds everything and keep everyone pacified imo.

The Kurds is a later complicated story imo.. but so far those Kurds are "doing the right thing".
I'm not an expert..
