I think you are overemphasizing the use of force and underestimating the power of ideas contained in Bush's speech. Look at the Ukraine (and didn't Lech Walesa make some speeches there?) Freedom brought about by popular will with moral support of other nations. A large part of what brought the USSR down was Reagan naming them as the evil empire.
Can Democracy be imposed by force? What about Japan?
Japan had its first constitution and elected Parliament as early as 1889.
Wasn't Japan a democracy before the military started running things?
