Reply #9: He's also bullshitting about the "wave" of democracy it will spread. Look [View All]

at Uzbeckistan now today. A popular uprising which has only warranted a brief "we hope its resolved peacefully" standard we don't give a shit response.

Uzbeckistan's regime jumped on the "we're fighting terrorism give us money and guns and we'll let you put your troops here" side of the fence post 9/11 as have countless other tyrannies.

I would suggest that the US campaign has increased tyranny around the world.

Bush was quick to start cheering on the Lebanese, the Ukrainians, and the Gorgians publicly. But one US friendly dictator kills hundreds of his own people in a popular uprising and Bush couldn't give a fuck.

Same old story for decades, why do people believe this rhetorical bullshit?
