different place, different people, different beliefs, different time. eventually, theyll succumb back to a theocracy or dictatorship. there is not one democratically elected government in the entire middle east. and there never is going to be one.

why? because of all of the other democratically elected governments that do work. its time, thats why.

why? because there have been no greater democracies in the history of the world than were born from the barrel of a gun. too many sacrifices have been made by the people who know what is better for them...not you.



i'm being mean. sorry.

Will it work?

I don't think so, at least not anytime soon. There's too much unrest for stability created by the USA in the Middle East. It's obsurd to think that the country populated by a large number extremists that generally hate the Western world will be stabalised into a effective democracy...by...the poster country of Western civilisation.



Even if there are those there that appriciate what the USA is doing.

two that i count as a stable democracy. two that are all but stable. and more than a dozen others that are rules islamic style. islam is not only a religion, but a way of life, and that also includes the governing bodies.

I'd say so. The only reason that democracy exists right now, is because there is a superior military force present enforcing it. Following the removal of trops (assuming they EVER leave ) I won't be surprised to see everything go back to how it was, proving once and for all this war on terror and bringing freedome to another country across the world was in fact not the smartest idea ever, and an unneccessary waste of money.

Because we all know that already
