Re: Please shutup about the US bringing democracy to other countries

I agree that those are secondary motivations or objectives for the Bush administration. I just didn't want it to be left out since I think it is important to keep in mind what Shari'a governments are really like.

They are not secondary objectives for bush, or anyone else in DC. Politicians absolutely do not care about this stuff. Prove me wrong. Show me a case where the US did anything substantial solely for the purpose of improving human rights elsewhere. There is NO precedent. The government doesn't work like this. It never has and never will. The state simply does not embody humanitarian or altruistic values.
We could send a friendly letter to turkey to tell them to stop jailing publishers all the time and they would probably listen. However, we won't even do that.
