Alternative to Democracy?
What if the Iraqis decide they don't want to have a democracy (a decision which would be ironically democratic)? Should the United States pursue putting in a puppet regime like in Iran, or do we hold true to the ideal of self-determination and let them decide what they want?
And if they do decide they don't want democracy, does that put their value system in contradiction with ours? Will we regard them as "uncivilized" for doing so?
I think this is a valid question to ask, and one that we better have some answers for.
