Good post. Likewise, if he thinks “we have an obligation to help this young Democracy to survive and thrive”, he’s going to have to point me towards an example of a thriving Democracy in any muslim country. It is fundamentally incompatible with their religion. And so are we.
And the “young democracies” of both Afghanistan and Iraq based their constitutions on sharia law. The notion that all people want American style freedom and democracy is constantly being disproven in Muslim nations, but that doesn’t seem to sink in with W and others of his belief.
And it will be disproven several more times in most or all of the Muslim nations now experiencing anti-government protests. We want see any new “democracies” that very many Americans will be happy to see.
