If we give the middle East a Chance of democracy, don't they democratically elect a dictator?

Answer 1

And thats not what we do????? Tony Blair : go to war nobody wants,
raise taxes nobdy wants,
f up health system, nobody wants
education system costs up the prices....who wanted that.....did you elect for that?

Answer 2

What we in the west call a dictator, is a good leader in the third world. That is why the west should not get involved in their affairs. Iraq and Vietnam are good examples.Syria elected a dictators son. Congo elected a dictators son. Nigeria elected an ex dictator, Nicaragua elected an ex dictator.

"Dictator" is a Orwellian term which the western government uses to frighten its citizens into submission. The facts are that the last real dangerous dictator was probably Stalin.

What we have like Qaddafi and Castro are good men who want to do good for their people. And most of the people recognise that. But the so-called "Democracy" is best brigade will always cause trouble because a "dictator" is not handicapped by corruption and legislation and is able to veto "crap" western deals.

My bet is that if there were free and fair elections in Iraq right now and Saddam was a candidate, he will win it .

Answer 3

You might say that most governments around the world (and throughout history) ARE (and have been) democratic, in that they are what the people support, tolerate, and even choose when they can.

If a government weren't democratic, then by a deconstructed, etymological definition of the word democracy, it would have to be ineffective or overthrown.
...or maybe in the future government will find a way to remove any choice of resistance.
But that would take something like an ID chip in every person with some kind of tiny supertoxic chemical dose that could be released via a unique-to-individual, encrypted government radio signal...

Real DEMOCRATIC government (I mean either direct democracy, or a representative democracy where there are people besides plutocratic oligarchs nominated and elected) is rare in the history of the U.S. and even rarer in most of the world, though it's inherently more common on state and local levels.

Answer 4

A dictator that is really a puppet of the West. Some people say 'come the revolution', well looks like it's going to be happening real soon only this revolution will stop revolving and will stop at a point!

Answer 5

specific so grew to become into each president of the Soviet Union, could we've in simple terms enable them to run amock and stood via and watched by way of fact they have been elected?. The Palistinians elected a Revolutionary Organization 17 November as their government, could we bathe them with billions of greenbacks in help by way of fact they have been elected?. in simple terms on account which you have some electorate with a vast chip on their shoulder and officers extra suitable than keen to tell them that their problems are some wealthy international places fault to maintain them from asking questions approximately what's rather being executed for them via their!!! elected officers, could we in simple terms stand there and be men like this's inner maximum punching bag and scapegoat?. i do no longer think of so. i do no longer understand if democracy can paintings in those places.

Answer 6

We have elected Tony Blair and as far as dictators are concerned even his own party can't remove him so why not let Saddam back to sought out peace in Iraq. Lets face it he can't do any worse than Bush or Blair can he.
