The middle east is the main exporter of terrorism because of its instability and place in the world. Islam happens to be the predominant religion of that region for historical reasons.

Isn't "everything" we observe around us culturally only there because of historical reasons? Nothing materialized out of thin air overnight.
Saudi Arabia has plenty of money and power, but their society is only as rigidly structured as it is because of how they interpret Islam. If they were a modern Christian nation nobody would be getting thrown off buildings. Period. The instability you mention is a byproduct of their particular ideology.
