It really doesn't matter where it is sold.

>> And don't confuse civil unrest with a call for freedom. Or democracy.

I don't confuse it, and fully recognize the risk. However, whatever it ends up being will likely be better than the dictatorship that now exists in terms of long-term stability as well as human rights.

While there likely will be the period of anarchy you suggest, it does not automatically end in dictatorship, given the proper leadership from the U.S. The current leadership here is a problem, however, IMO it is very much a temporary one at this point.
