too often I see people following up your original argument with comments such as Arabs being unsuited to democracy.

Cultures are very difficult to make drastic changes in in short periods of time. If you switch an Arab baby with an American baby, chances are they will follow the same paths otherwise. However, you are trying to change centuries of tradition and culture overnight. It has to be an ooch approach.
100 years ago, blacks were regarded as inferior almost to the point of being a different species. 50 years ago they couldn't ride busses in the South or eat at certain restaruants. Today, one has a very good shot of being elected President. Cultures can change, but it happens with time.
