Alright... leee,
I'm a political science major, and friend... you don't know what the
fuck you're talking about.

See you are just wrong and being young and naieve now. It is just a fact that certain cultures need to be governed a certain way. I know you will cry racism now, but just listen before you spout off what ever liberal ideolgy you are learning in college.
Why would you assume that the way a culture is governed is the way it has to be governed? What's your basis for that logic? Governmental reconstruction needs to be gradual, yes, but it is very achievable.

I am not going to get into it, but places like Iraq, Afghanstain, China, and others are not a democracy for a reason, and it has always failed in places like that for a reason, and it isn't because people are weak minded etc, their culture and upbringing just makes it impossible.
Uhhh... holy shit where the fuck are you pulling this logic from? ALL governmental change is a bit rough... so who is to say that they can't handle democracy? Especially, China? Why the hell would you throw China in there? Fuck, they're already half capitalist as it is, whether or not they admit it. By all means, China could handle democracy--any nation could... it just needs to be introduced more gradually in some.

Yes we are trying to force or Gov down Iraq throat it has nothing to do with bombings or what ever bullshit you gleaned from farenheith 911, it has to do with the simple fact, that those people can not be goverend that way. period. Sadaam and people like Sadamm are the only ones that can rule nations and cultures like that. It is sad but true. Look at history and looks what happens when freedom, etc is granted to places like that, anarchy ensues. To deny it says our war there is cool so think about it before you post. Look at Africa and the mess it is. Look at what a shit hole South Africa is run by Mandela..... It isn't racist, it is fact.
Anarchy (well, not utter anarchy) has ensued because they just wiped out the fucking government and the nation was put under military control, and then a new government was shoved into place. THAT'S what caused the anarchy... not their culture being unable to work with democracy. There will be one problem with democracy in Iraq, however. Without liberalism, people will vote for extreme religious parties and the like... democracy doesn't work too well without liberalism embedded in the culture... otherwise it produces tyranny of the majority... tyranny of the most popular culture. So no, democracy cannot be introduced overnight, but it CAN eventually, and gradually.
Regarding South Africa, it had to be changed. The transition is a bit rough (but could have been a lot rougher), but in the long term the racism will lessen, and the nation will be far better off... not to mention the black majority, who, by all means, deserve to be treated like equals.
You need to look at the big picture. By your logic, we should have just let Hitler go nuts because of the immense short term losses suffered in stopping him. Or, of course, by your logic, by all means, we should have left the blacks as slaves in America. Sometimes a little war or a little anarchy is necissary to prevent centuries of oppression.
I'm a vocalist, and you don't know what the fuck you're talking about buddy.
