Actually, the comments on Iraq are very germane, and correct. The idea that we could democratize Iraq the same way we democratized Japan and Germany is part and parcel of the stupidity of multiculturalism.

I recall getting called a racist many times by so-called "conservatives" whenever I pointed out that trying to democratize an Islamic Arab country was going to be much more difficult, if not impossible.

I still don't think we're going to leave Iraq a democracy.

What was your proposal, our own hand picked despot? IIRC, that was one of Al Qaeda's complaints.
