Well thought out, Linda - but there is a huge 'gorilla in goat tank' ... Democracy is incompatible with people who do not have basic respect for inalienable rights given by our Creator to all human beings. ( A portion of the Declaration, that you will note, was changed DRAMATICALLY from the rough draft posted a few days ago - the Declaration was written by a man who did NOT believe in God. )
The muslims do not, will not, and can not have that 'basic respect for the inalienable rights' of ALL men .... and WOMEN.
Won't work - never will, never has. What are euphemistically called 'secular' governments in muslim countries - they are NOT 'secular' at all. It was a pile of poppycock that people spouted and still adamantly maintain about 'sodamn insanes' government. It was NOT secular in the least little bit.
Democracy, nation building ... in an area with the 'muslim' religion - fuhgetabboutit. Leave them to their own devices, they will destroy themselves - isolate them, don't deal with them, don't do a damn thing for them. They will NOT allow 'Christianity', nor any other religion, within their borders. Look at the incredibly nasty plight of ANY Christians in Afghanistan - it is apalling - and as bad now as it was under the Taliban.
They don't tolerate others - we should NOT tolerate them.
Yeah, I know they are over 1.0 BILLION of the world's population. Life sucks.
