GREECE owning democracy to Americans!!!
I don't thing there is any page mentioning it in my country's history.
In fact i know that democracy is a Greek word
(Demos = People, Cratia = Hold - > Democratia = People hold the power)
and it was the first country that came up with the idea and first implememded Democracy more than 2500 years ago.
Do i own that to the American governments too??? :shrug:
Belenar is right on this one...Bad comments DO piss people of and make em dislike you.
Pay attention and have in mind that you don't rule the world.
It existed long before the US decided to implement "their" Democracy all around the place and it will exist even after they stop doing that...It's just how things work...
And one other thing.Doing a war to implement Democracy doesn't make you better than a Dictator.
I mean what is the whole idea???
Kill the people so they can vote after...???

Nicaragua is a democracy today because of US pressure and intervention in Honduras and El Salvador... Oh and they are democracies as well.
Cuba...well I'm half Cuban American. Cuba is poor because of Castro not because we put an embargo on the Island. Hell our embargo doesn't bar Canada or any other nation from trading with that dictator...in fact you do. Castro was a vassal dictator of the Soviet Union and now that meal ticket is gone. I guess this proves that Communism is a horseshit economic theory.
Iraq...I'm not going to dignify that with an answer, but IMO thanks for sending the ballots and ink to Iraq.
