Re: thought expirement
Japan loves us, and we dropped the bomb on them. There is a stark difference in attempting to replace a dictatorship with a democracy and colonialization.

Re: thought experiment
Ghandi covered this a long time ago:
I beg you to accept that there is no people on Earth who would not prefer their own bad government to the good government of an alien power. He was also a pedophile, though.

Re: thought experiment
You had me, and everyone except New Hampshire, at just 3D porn.
EDIT: Actually, I would enjoy watching the current administration on trial. What hasn't that happened yet?

The poll finds that 78 percent of Iraqis reject violence against coalition forces, although 17 percent a sixth of the population call such attacks "acceptable." One percent, for comparison, call it acceptable to attack members of the new Iraqi police. -ABCnews poll Overall, two out of three Iraqis (66%) believe that the recent parliamentary elections were free and fair. Approximately the same number (68%) say that the government to be established by the newly elected Parliament will be the legitimate representative of the Iraqi people. -worldpublicopinion Naturally one of the most interesting questions is how Iraqis feel about the presence of US-led forces. Iraqis are sharply divided, with 49 percent favoring an early withdrawal and 49 percent favoring US-led forces remaining until Iraq is stable. If the new Iraqi government asks the forces to stay, support for doing so rises only slightly, to 53 percent. -worldpublic opinion Are you just making [censored] up off the top of your head or what?
