God knows it should have happened AGES ago for a lot of African countries too
I'm not sure about Syria, but in Africa the problem is pretty clear: the west (that's the US and Europe, and in particular the big corporations from there) are draining those countries of all their natural resources, leaving only polluted ground behind. They don't bring many jobs, they're just taking stuff away like the colonists did a long time ago. They deliver weapons to all sides of any conflict to make sure that nobody can get strong enough to oppose them.
I don't have a solution for those problems, but sending an army might not be as helpful as you might think. Letting them take control over their own country, however, would be a good start. But that would mean our companies can't make crazy profits on it, so that's not going to happen.
