Want to show your ignorance of history again in another example?

No thanks, I'm satisfied with the examples I've already given. Prickly one-liners are not the same as meaningful argument.

The examples proved your ignorance on the subject-examples that perfectly provedmy point that democracy building in Japan and Germany worked becuase democracy once flourished in those nations just a generation before the rise of Hitler or Tojo.

Do you want me to bring up examples of nation building pre WW2 in Central America/Haiti, areas that did not have a democratic foundations where once US Marines departed they reverted to strongman dictatoriships? Phillipines post WW2?

The Phillipines is a perfect example of how democracy to work it must be a grass roots effort. It barley works now but they did it all by themselves so the will to make it works continues (and they did it without any American help).
