This sounds a lot like Iraq under Saddam Hussein, he also was "abhorrant to our western sensabilities" but Iraq was more stable with him than with out.
Now here is a machiavellian idea for the bleeding hearts chew on. Maybe that type of barbarism is nescessary for keeping primitive countries in check. Is it possible that we as a more advanced society should let other nations not as far along alone so that they can develop to self government over time like european (american) government did?
