but ed says our style democracy is not applicable to iraq given three groups. I agree with Ed. Democracy needs to be stretched to mean less about majority rule and more about minority rights and federal solutions in iraq. Now you wouldnt have to stretch as much if you were talking iran or egypt who have more homogenous populations.
Both you and Ed drive me crazy because sometimes you have that democracy fixation and ed because of his vietnam experiences influence on his view of iraq. Yes virginia there can be a good outcome that is neither civil war or western democracy. Both you guys should look for some middle ground on this. Ed isnt Syl and Hawk isnt Paret.
