Not in Iraq, not after past militarizations of the region.
As Professor Rufus Fears, quoting another learned source,
speaking from thousands of years of human history,

We should never have dismembered the Ottoman Empire after WW I, even though they had been gently breathing down Europe's neck for centuries.
But there have been so many geopolitical blunders over there.
