I agree, actually. The Saudi's, for example, are kept reasonably content because the King spreads money around and that money is due to oil revenue. No oil revenue ...?

True and that locals here are barely educated..BUT in terms of resources to population, their population virtually doesn't exist!!

But the King knows that an educated populace is the ultimate resource and a huge number of 'scholarships' (opportunity for advanced studies in Western countries) are awarded each year. It's forward thinking should the oil (or demand for oil) dry up.

i can view your answer in two ways .
Logically even Africa has it owns source . and we have Alharams and a great religion that effected billions of people and we dont charge them for nothing but to be will and polite when they are in that remarkable places . .
Also well What do UK and USA have ? and had before . effectually we all do change . they made there way !! and im sure we will . we had so many educated people even westren people do learn from them . like alrasi in Human body .. .
