"...take there country and restore a democracy. Capitalism, free market works. "
Problem with that is that these so many of these people and countries have never lived in a democracy. They don't understand it.
Their leadership fears a democracy. They fear the basic tenet of a democracy, that leadership can be changed by the people.
Their method is that you inherit leadership, or sieze it by whatever means you may. That is what they are used to.
They may as adverse to democracy, as we would be to having their system imposed apon us.
I commend your good intentions, you would like to spread democracy, which has so many inherent benfits to the common person.
However I question if we are able to impose democracy on a society which is not ready for it, or not in a welcoming mood. I also question if we are in fact then belittling democracy, bypassing their peoples will (their majorities choice of governance) and forcing a democracy apon them. That in itself is oxymoronic and undemocratic.
Reading your views on liberals, I feel like I am reading some sermon from Friday prayers at a mosque anywhere in the middle east as they condemn what is evil in america and single it out. It makes my head hurt. I for one support and encourage the views of both liberals and conservatives as they balance one another out and generate a more even viewpoint. An utterly liberal viewpoint and an utterly conservative (neo-con, new hip word) viewpoint are both utterly damaging. One causes choas, the other causes oppression, both very undemocratic.
