If a nation crying for liberty and democracy as trademark launch a war against another country for oil? Boasting of their freedom of speech but actually dont want that freedom in other countires for their interest? See what happened to Kerry for just telling a truth? Why Castro or Chavez are devils if they are only enemy to only some small group of people willing to manipulate the world?

You have answered the question partly in your question itself. The word democracy has different meaning to different Countries. In the name of democracy many atrocities are committed by the Governments which claim to be guardian angels of Democracy. Thus value of Democracy again differs as per the commercial needs of the major powers. UN itself has erred in allowing outsiders to enter Iraq in the name of non-existent WMD. Tell me where is the value of words for the World body?

"It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried. "
Sir Winston Churchill
British politician (1874 - 1965)
The value is that even with Castro on his death bed, the Cubans can't get rid of him as their leader. Whilst we, if we are smart, will vote the bastards out in 2008.

Everybody wants freedom, liberty from bondage since
time immemorial... that's what William Wallace and Jose
Rizal died for: freedom. For oil... that's for the mighties.
