Is Iraq a "bad democracy?" Do you know what a bad democracy is, as opposed to a good democracy? Oh, sorry, you thought that all democracies were good. Right? Well, let me suggest to you that Lebanon is an example of democracy, ruled by its elected leaders, Hamas. Is that country a good democracy, or a bad one?
As a democracy they hate the United States and sponsor terrorism
against their neighbors (Israel, for example). So there is such a thing as a bad democracy, i.e., one in which the radical elements have seized control by popular vote and are running amok with few
if any of the attributes of a "good democracy" which promotes freedom, equality, and living in peace with its neighbors. So is IRAQ a "bad democracy?" Are we in the process of seeing Iraq turn into another problem just like the palestinians in Lebanon?

Hamas is in palestian and Hizbollah is in Lebanon. which are u reffering to? btw, Lebanon is not ruled by Hizbollah, though they have a very strong presence there. the current administration in Lebanon is friendly towards the US and is pushing for wat you called a good democracy. though the administration runs Lebanon, they lack of resources and military might. and becoz of these, many of its officials have been assassinated by Hizbollah. and they have to offer power sharing to Hizbollah(seats in the cabinet) to make it possible for a coalition. and its not a secret that Hizbollah has close ties with Palestinians, supported by Iran and Syria and they are oppose to US.
if you are reffering to palestian, they are ruled by fatah and not hamas. though hamas have a strong say in the administration formulating of policies. fatah's cheif is the president (in charge) of palestian and Hamas chief is the prime minister (second in charge). and the two parties have been in constant conflict all the while fighting for power in the country.
Iraq is very similiar to palestian in a sense that the sunnis and shias are too busy killing each other to grab power that i think they are too divided to cause any serious damage to Israel and US for now.

Iraq is, always has been, and always will be until the end of the world, a land of heathens,anarchists, war-mongering rabble that disdains peace and disrespects life, man and God. If we ever get out of that God-forsaken hellhole, I pray the leaders of this country will stay the hell out and let them handle their own miserable affairs. A thousand Iraqis is not worth the life of ONE American.
