Democracy

I get carried away too often and miscommunicate my thoughts many times. So, after getting a full day holiday today on occasion of President's day (some combination of Lincoln and Washington's bday, we never got it in school....but, ahh..will miss the 9 day holiday next month for spring break. And our next holiday is on 29th may :( );....I decided to write about democracy.

I strongly believe in democracy, freedom of expression, and the rest...Only, I am not convinced the these ideals can be introduced externally on a society which is not yet ready to accept these. Every human society has had different levels of development, and it is insane to think that all of these societies would converge on a single form of governance at the same time. When the time will come, it will come. Things should not be forced upon anybody; that goes against the very ideals of democracy that is being forced upon.

And when the West speaks of democracy and freedom, they are not really wanting that. All they want is to remove a government which is not in their best interests. Such hypocricy. And all we can feel is a profound sense of helplessness, when countries are bullied like this. want examples? sure...there are plenty...Right now what comes on the top of my head are:
Venezuela, Bolivia, Iran, Palestine - The people elected their governments with an overwhemling majority, and look what happens. On the other hand:
Pakistan, Saudi arabia, Kuwait, Egypt - ruled by kings of dictarors, are the most favoured nations.

So, the conclusion is: Yes, the West wants democracy everywhere, but wants those democratic votes to be cast by the people of their own countries, and not the citizens of their native countries. The poor natives are just not fit to elect a goverment of their choice, it looks like. Dont worry. You have resources? The west is ready to help. !!! BOOM !!!
