There are so many examples where democracy has been given or forced and have become very successful nations that protect individual human rights. The two most noteworthy recent such events have been Japan and Germany. These progressive, successful, prosperous nations were forced to adopt a representative form of government and now are strong adherents to the rights of the individual. Why is it such a persistent MYTH that democracy cannot be given?

I am a Disabled Vietnam Veteran, but my reasoning faculties are intact and it is as crystal clear as water and completely undenialble that...when you have bombings in India, you have war going on in Afghanistan, you have war going on in Iraq, you have a war going on in Gaza and South Lebanon, you have Syria and Libya and North Korea actively plotting to defeat the democracies, you have Ahmadinejad, the leader of Iran, saying publicly he wants to defeat the Americans and utterly wipe Israel from the face of the earth, you have people plotting to blow up New York tunnels, you have Canadians plotting to blow up the Canadian parliament and behead the prime minister...

My point is... we are in a war!

My question is ... WHY can't Left - Wing Democrats
acknowledge this and "act accordingly" for the sake of
the Nation and the US troops at the Fronts!

Well, I am an old political science graduate with an emphasis in international relations. And I wasn't surprised one bit by the Bush tape. Politics are much much dirtier than the genereal public realizes. Most Americans only pay attention to glossy TV ads once every 2 or 4 years. Everything looks nice and clean. Everything comes off as black and white. Men wear suits and pander to audiences. Audiences eat it up, vote (the majority don't), and everyone goes home. But what goes on behind the scenes is probably too much for the general public to stomach. It's like sausage making. We love the result but the actual production is greusome. Things get pretty crude when the door closes. And in some cases, it gets caught on camera. Also, a related story would be the hundreds and hundreds of actual bribes that were caught in Peru. They were made public and it brought down Fujimori. But that is a bit off the subject.

"I like to believe that people in the long run are going to do more to
promote peace than our governments. Indeed, I think that people want peace so much that one of these days governments had better get out of the way and let them have it."

After the bashing of Kerry during the campaign season, do you think they regret their actions of making Bush look stronger on defense, security, and economy?

The same thing happened to Gore with the "Invention of the Internet" and Dean with the screaming frenzy and Tom Daschle with his filibusters. Sometimes I question which side they are really on. What is the U.S. coming to when you can't trust the corporate media anymore?

I hope Yahoo Answers doesn't delete this question.

the statues of gods of rival towns and keep them in their temple as subordinates. Emperors prefer to have one god. Even better, one god that is invisible, so the Emperor can represent the god. What is the religion of democracy?

In Europe they call them Chips and in the US we call them french or freedom fries. Europeans drive on the left side of the road and American on the right. Our car steering are also put on the other side...would it not be cheaper if all cars were made the same. Even our English language is totally differnt from the British English. ex. centre and center...why Why do us americans have to change or do everything differently? We do everything just to stand out.

Olmert, new presidant in Israel
Hamas, new Gov. in Palestine

Hamas says: we will not attack Israel
Olmert: starts an attack on Gaza

Hamas: Decides to defend, they takw 2 presinors
Olmert: Declares war on Gaza

Hezbollah: Decides to help Hamas, killing 8 Israelies taking 2 presinors
Olmert: Declares was (not on Hezbollah BUT on LEBANON)

Israel has 1000's of presinors - Hamas & Hezbollah only 3
and what happens?

Israel's media made it seem as if they are the innocent ones, while Hamas & Hezbollah are the terrorists.

Today, Israeli melitary shoots the camera man for Al Jazeera Channel, WHY ? because he's showing the fact?

My Question:
Why People? why are you so blind towards the fact & towards your Governments? why are you so ignorant & unfair? or is it that you do know the truth but acting like the USA & the Israeli governments?

I believe that 80-90% of the Muslim world are really agreeable & righteous. However why is it that you keep saying Islam is a "religion of peace" yet you are eerily silent whenever "Muslims" wreck trains, blow up cafes & hotels, do gruesome beheadings, launch rockets into suburbs, crash planes into skyscrapers & other evil acts. I know that the USA, Israel & The West have committed their share of injustice & stupidity (some of us also disagree and protest against it), but while you go on condemning them, burning USA/Israel flags & shouting blasphemies like "God willing Israel will be destroyed!" I hear no condemnation from YOU (the people, not your governments) in fact I see rejoicing, whenever the innocent civilians who belong to the West & Israel are killed by "Muslims". And if you say Osama is a terrorist...why arent you denouncing him more loudly & actively working against him (is he not a greater insult to Islam than the poorly drawn Danish cartoons)?

Would conservatives start hating each other instead? Would the extreme conservatives start calling the moderates names like "liberals"? Then would the moderates, or new liberals, be labeled anti-American?
