is the usa really interested in democracy?
Democracy. It's such a precious word. With so much meaning. The US, probably more than any other nation on Earth, seems to rant endlessly about it.
But I ask you this: With all of its superpower interventions and massive "programs of liberation" in the last 50 years, where has the US been successful in installing a viable democracy? Having trouble answering that?
Ok, let's try an easier question: Where, in the last 50 years, has the US been interfering with and even preventing democracy. Answer: In lots of places.
Another question: Where, in the last 50 years, has the US installed its own preferred dictatorships to further its own geopolitical megalomania? Answer: In lots of places.
Want some details? Good. Read Noam Chomsky, Gore Vidal, John Pilger, Robert Fisk and lots of others...
