So what are the benefits for this development that comes to the author...
The benefit is for collaboration, and to have the author's work interoperate with the work of others who participate in the IETF. We do recognize that some contributors have patented ideas, and there are protections for those, but the writing are for the benefit of everyone contributing to the IETF.
...if his work can be stolen by anyone?
Again, not anyone. Only those who contribute their work to the IETF standardization process.
Why there is a standardization organization like the ietf?
Interoperability and collaboration. See above.
Is this means that any other organization can be established and use all the ietf related work and add the protection to its participants other than wasting their efforts?
No, that is not permitted by the license. You are only allowed to make derivative works if you are contributing your work to the standards process (unless the author allows or a different license is given).
