America isn't even a democracy, By definition America is a republic. If we can't even have a working democracy, what makes us think that people who have only been united in the past 2000 years by an Iron fist dictator can?

Never! The Iraqis for one thing, have to many people running around with AK47s and RPGs. And most of them resent us even being therein that country. They have the way they live, and we have ours. It is kinda like adopting a child that is so used to being abused and can't accept that someone is really trying to help it. So naturally, they're going to rebel. Untill they lay down the Guns, and stop blowing up their own people with bombs. Nothing will ever come as of "good" to Iraq.

We can only show them what a free society is like. It is up to them to choose it. We can bring the idea to them, but cannot force them to drink.
Let us remember our history. In Vietnam, they were about to vote for a communist government so we stopped the vote. We cannot force democracy upon anyone.
Technically, it will not be a democracy, but we all knew what you meant.

Only Iraqis can bring democracy to Iraq. (But it doesn't look like they want it.)
