Yes I agree, our leaders in the West have been very naïve in assuming that people from this part of the world would readily embrace the concept of Democracy.

It initially employed people with a Middle Eastern background, on the basis that they would more easily adapt to the culture of the countryn (even magazines with just a slight hint of a woman's bare flesh were banned). They were surprised to discover that, although they were born in the USA, after a period of time in SA, they reverted to their (ingrained) ME culture.So the West is correct to be wary of the 'sleeping enemy within'.
