" US policy has always been one of stability over democratization in these countries so there is little governmental accountability to the people's needs." It almost seems to being applied here also. Seems like it is the way of the world. About the only place you see some accountability is China, where the have to save face! But saying that is saving face only a cop-out for the higher ups? Nuking was only said in jest,I'm sure you realized that. Maybe it isn't America's job to police the world in the first place. "Democracy, messy as it might be, is the only way to force these governments to be accountable to their people. Of course, it could back-fire and lead to the people following some Arab "Hitler" into a world war.." Nothing is perfect, as corruption is everywhere. Just look at the U.S. no accountabilty anywhere. Unless you consider Madoff, what a joke.<NG>
