Democracy does not work in Muslim countries. Democracy works only in Christian countries. Democracy does not work in a backward civilization. What works in a backward civilization is dictatorship, where a strong man like the late Sadam and Khadafy rule. There was no ISIS during their rule. America is making a mistake striving to democratize the middle east! Am I right or wrong?

@Lucky15 Okay! O, by the way, which one of our presidential candidates in the Philippines may qualify as lesser evil? Duterte?

Too tough to call. I understand where you're coming from. But what if you put a good person leading any of those countries---those two were murderers.

If you put good person leading those countries, the bad eggs like ISIS shall grow like mushrooms. Only strong dictators could stop evil groups like ISIS.

Well, ISIS was there during their time, it was even used by the American govt to topple down Saddam, Supplied weapons to them and even trained them to infiltrate the govt. They were a small organization back then.

@slayer08 You seem to know a lot about the middle east. I don't know much. I know their religious belief is making them living in backward civilization.

America isn't really 'democratizing', America is 'oiling'. Btw, religion has nothing to do with democracy.

That's because isalm is completely incompatible with Democracy! Another reason why muslims are the first victims of islam.

I can understand that democracy would not always work but you do need to have the right dictator if you are going to have one.
