Honestly after seeing the price tag of our last 2 wars. I have ZERO problems with just sending aid. Hell if we took the dollar amount spent say in Iraq and used say even half of it to pay off the people to help improve their lives, I am pretty damn sure we would have a whole bunch of people really liking us and a very strong economy going on there that would be very pro American. Same could be said of Afghanistan.
Pretty damn sure our enemies "Insert whatever terrorist groups" pretty much use ignorance, lack of educations, poverty, and propaganda to recruit people. Sure they may have the religious angle, then again most can not even read those religious books and well the promise of a better next life or afterlife over their current shit life probably sounds good. Primarily because their current life does suck the huge smegma dick.
