John, that's fine we don't have to debate anymore. Your opinions are opposite mine. However, I couldn't resist replying to one comment you made:

We are imposing Democracy, it is not occuring naturally. They have a right to self determination.

I looked up democracy for you:
n 1: the political orientation of those who favor government by the people or by their elected representatives 2: a political system in which the supreme power lies in a body of citizens who can elect people to represent them

How can Democracy be imposed? Afghanis have already elected their own government and the Iraqis are about to do the same. They are participating in free elections. We aren't imposing anything on them.

How about I say something equally as ludicrous. The earth's atmosphere is imposing the right to breathe air on you.
