There have been Islamo terrorists across the world for a very long time. That isn't going to change. Each country has to defend against any of their influence that could result in a coupe. That is where the war is today. The best example of failed democracy is Egypt.
Non-Proliferation and the Small Arms Treaty is important and every country should treat them as important.
In the USA, talking head generals are talking head generals because they make a lot of money being talking head generals. And the public enthusiasm for war swings both ways, I think President Obama figured that out with Libya.
The political right wing of the USA will drive sex scandals and racist fear with war attached to it because it works. The enthusiasm for war in the middle east serves the right wing political machine, if it didn't no one would hear a word about it.
Why doesn't the right wing political machine focus on the Phillipines then? Why? Because the middle east comes with an additional political bonus called Israel. Has Israel lost land and disappeared into history? No, I think it is the Palestinians that can lay claim to that issue.

The victory by the business-friendly Macri, who gained a national profile as president of the popular Boca Juniors soccer club, comes after he did better than expected in the first round on Oct. 25. The close first round forced a runoff with Scioli, the governor of the vast Buenos Aires province....
