"To justify military intervention with the purpose of imposing democracy is either a cynical cover for imperialism or an act of irresponsible naïveté.

Hmmm...Then there's both. Just wondering why anyone would preclude the possibility of an act of irresponsibly naïve imperialism? Would being so unaware of the nature and history of the Middle East as to not expect a Tar Baby guerilla war to ensue in an occupied Iraq, qualify? Anybody that thinks that the current situation is going according to some neo-con master plan to get us further involved in the Middle East needs to do some reading.
