"Some people have no capacity for self governance and must be led by authoritarian means or tyrants."

I don't disagree, although "some people" have yet had the chance to self govern. I offer these points.

To do nothing is to let the present regimes continue using the unlimited billions of dollars from oil profits for funding terrorists who will absolutely commit greater and more widespread acts of terror against the United States and its allies.

Further, to do nothing risks the "free flow" of oil which can not only bring down our entire economy, but the economies of all nations. A world in crisis, nations in chaos.

My view of the President's message is pretty stark:

"Democratize the Middle East or perish!"

Correction: kill the orks and put the trolls in wild animal parks.
