"KONY 2012"

So, what would you say should be done about instances like this? Just leave them alone and let them continue to grow worse over time, until it becomes a direct threat to first world countries and much more difficult to fix? One thing is for sure, doing nothing will not fix it; doing something and failing is better than doing nothing, even if we lose time and money doing so. Otherwise, I feel that our morals take a bigger hit than the material losses.

Sorry but let me lol a bit.
Doing something and failing can make things far worse that what what they would naturally evolve to, do you know one of the reasons (if not the only) they use childrens as soilders? Some one tried crushing them and failed and they went on a recruitment spree so when they came back with a bigger force they also had a bigger one.
