Well, perhaps the word "democracy" is objective. But, in any case, what the U.S. government installed by interferring with their internal governing processes was much more dictorial and less democractic than what existed previously. Democracy has to start somewhere. Iran and Guatemala were trying to get a democracy going. Brazil had an established Constitutional democracy until the U.S. came in and mucked things up. Chile had nearly a 100 year tradition of democracy that came to a violent end on 9/11/1973. Chile was the oldest democracy in Latin America at that point. In any case, there is a pattern that emerges in which the U.S. is hardly on the side of democratic institutions and is rather interested in controlling a country's resources by any means necessary, including coups, assissinations, installing and supporting dictators. The facts are there for anyone interested in uncovering them.
