"world will eventually become more peaceful once democracy spreads throughout the Mid-east."

'Eventually' can be a very long time... but what are the odds?

I'm sure if pigs could fly there would be bacon in the sky as well... but I wouldn't count on it too soon.

Not with civil war warming up in that artificial nation (assembled rather arbitrarily by the British out of three separate Ottoman provinces after WW I) called "Iraq", just like Bush I and Scowcroft predicted.

Kurds Threaten to Walk Away From Iraqi State

Message 20207398

Is President Bush double-crossing the Kurds?

Message 20207743

And, not with the Saudis and Egyptians backing away from Bush's G8 call for 'Democracy in the Middle East'.
