The URL link isn't working.. but based on the lunacy written, it probably isn't worth the bandwidth. Who is the author? I'll add them to my avoid list.
Unfortunately, the author may be correct about this. However, what else was there to be done? At least democracy is worth a try!!
Yeah, Lebanon was much better off when it was occupied by Syria. That's soooo logical. I'm sure the author spoke to a lot of Lebanese before writing this garbage! /sarcasm off.
Hitler was a lesbian?
And besides, Ah-mini-jab is Iranian, not Lebanese!
Excerpt from:
Caricatures of Muhammad and Democracy!By Ali Sina
The Bush administration must be lauded for their commitment to bring democracy to the world. But in their enthusiasm, they seem to be putting the cart before the horse.
Muslims, have no tradition of democracy and no understanding of it. They confuse democracy with dictatorship of the majority. They exploit democracy to gain power. Once they come to power, they get rid of the democracy and establish Islamic theocracy. Once they come to power, they keep it. A good example of that is Iran , where its Islamic rulers came to power in a referendum and with that democratic vote, they ended the democracy.
Freedom of speech, freedom of beliefs, respect for the rights of the minority and separation of religion from government are the foundations of democracy. Without these you can’t have democracy and yet none of them exists in any Islamic country. Democracy must be built from bottom up, starting first with the foundation.
