^ to be fair, bombing the hell out of their county under false pretences is quite a bit more than "wanting a say in how their government is run". And to answer your question, yes, I for one do believe that as developed nations we have a responsibility to help those who have so much less. I mean, it was pure luck that we were all born in Canada or the US, and honestly, how can you be aware of the conditions under which these people live and not want to help?
