2) You misunderstand.
Too late.
Misunderstand then.
Disagree - for the world not too late, for most western countries off course too late for years.
As with all over used things, they get old and people have moved on from it. Everyone is sick of being fed division. It might work here for a while but it's one of those backward countries where half the population are functionally and politically illiterate. Eventually it will not work at all.
I've just come back from Germany. It's a very diverse place and it's still rich and prosperous. Not what I see here.

Yeah, well as usual dictionaries are different.
Nowdays such words like backward can considered as praise (among various other terms).
Many disregard facts like how many countries, with how much population, and how large territories belong to such looked down categories which is always some 70-90%.
There is term for that:
The West versus the Rest
Now just as even truly poor countries like in West Africa one after each other kick out the neocolonial forces, such as France, EU, US and their corporations situation is not stands well for the ones on the high horses. When the ice cream licks back, and the poorest sanction the richest.
Off course such poor countries know all too well what will happen the same what happened for hundreds of years, and only the rhetoric changes. Off course santions are enacted, millions will die from famines, lack of medical supplies, lack of everything, because this is among the most common measures what imperialists always do.
But their other most common measure the invasions is increasingly troublesome.
- Afghanistan have rare earth metals -> Afghanistan needs democracy
- Iraq have oil -> Iraq needs democracy
- ....
- Niger have uranium -> Niger must restore democracy ... or else
Problems are:
- The world less and less believe, encripted what certain terms mean in reality.
- There are less and less pawns who are ready to die for their masters interests
Usual tactics, to bomb back countries to the "stone age" worked in places like Yugoslavia, even in Iraq.
But in other parts of the world less likely:
Afghanistan:
- We the migthy Coalition of Killing will destroy your infrastructure with or unstoppable missiles!
- Taliban: What infrastructure?
So in the Sahel region:
Get ready for military intervention because France (Germany, Belgium, others who had troops there), EU, US furious!
They ready to bomb all electrical plants, and water plants, and...
Barefoot tribal member with AK: What is electricity?
Also because folks there are so overwhelmingly happy because colonial powers kept them poor, and organised various terrorist organizations to generate chaos, rule with divide and conquer:
Many of them just recently said thank you for France even in France:
France ERUPTS In Protest After Police Caught Lying About Killing Of Teenager
Or just like as Algeria joined the alliance against any attempt to depose the recently risen popular Junta in Niger.
Among other reasons to say thank you for hundreds of years of occupation + genocide by the French.
So yea off course possible to kill Moammer Kadhafi who wanted an African currency based on gold, and drop both the US dollar and CFA/ XOF (franc), possible to ruin and divide his country and make hell, but that carries consequances.
Bad news:
Many in the Sahel will fight.
While millions will come to exactly Europe. For sure full with gratitude and the deep desire to integrate into the French (German, Belgian, etc) society.
Ej-ej Europe.
