It is the name of that region and conflicts within it are still conflicts in the Middle East. Still not racist, sorry. You get this worked up over people mentioning Europe or "The West"?

If people grouped up every single geopolitical conflict within Europe under a single category of equally non-black and whiteness, they'd be ignorant to do so. When western people do that with the middle east, it's just an excuse to keep their minds free of it and dismiss it all and the responsibility of their governments.

Funnily enough, you know where in middle east there weren't these "non-black and white" issues until three decades ago? Kazakhstan. Uzbekistan. Turkmenistan. Tajikistan. Azerbaijan. Kyrgyzstan. I wonder if there's something black and white about the whole thing now...
