Iran and Syria are willing to kill Iraquis just to prevent democracy from starting in Iraq and spreading to Iran and Syria.
A true waste of human life

If you lived in one of these countries, and you were aware of what America has done to you over the past century, you might just fear democracy too. To them it means setting up a puppet dictator and having him do whatever he pleases to the people as long as the money keeps flowing to the west. And when they stop doing that, they get hung.

a democracy can only work if the people want it. Anyway, if everyone in a democracy is evil, they will vote in an evil government. everything depends on the people. A democracy leads sometimes to tyranny of the majority (Tocqueville) and can lead to Anarchy (Plato, Aristotle). Check out Ben Franklin's quotes on Democracy. Also, the French Revolution was democratic of sorts and that turned out bad. So, a democracy is not always a good thing.

First you need to understand that Iran HAD A DEMOCRACY until the CIA started terrorist attacks inside Iran, blaming them on the government as the US wanted them out!
Why you ask? Because the Democratic government wasn't giving a US OIL company oil!
With our help, the Democracy in Iran was replaced with a tyrant, our good ole pro US oil Shaw of Iran! You do remember him don't you?
Guess the US is only pro demcracy when it suits them as in a bunch of regime changes we were involved in, including Castro and Hussein!
What short memories!

Gee, do you think of it might desire to be through fact they're all our enemies? of direction, if what you mean by using "understand" is quaking in concern, how a lot of that did you spot under the different president? understand does not mean concern. Ask any abused toddler in case you do not have faith me. so far, they have respected him adequate to not attack us, a minimum of the governments have.
