Wired‘s Danger Room blog looks at Fred Kaplan’s new book, Daydream Believers, which explains “how a few grand ideas wrecked American power”:
DR: You also take the Bush administration to task for its belief that free societies — democracies — would naturally be friendlier to us, and hostile to terrorists. How come? I think a lot of us find the idea of squaring America’s interests with its ideals pretty appealing. And we don’t much like the notion of supporting dictatorships, like Saudi Arabia.Kaplan: It is an appealing notion. And there is some evidence that highly developed democracies tend not to go to war with one another. But there’s also a lot of evidence that emerging democracies are more war-prone than any other kind of regime. Bush and Condi Rice put their faith in the proposition that toppling dictators and holding free elections yield friendly, pro-Western democracies. But look at the results of the Palestinian elections, which put Hamas in power. The elections in Iraq were little more than an ethnic census; they politicized, and thus hardened, sectarian divisions. Without democratic institutions, democratic processes are in many societies likely to produce governments hostile to us and to freedom as we understand the concept.
There’s a lot left unsaid here. There’s quite a bit of coercion going on in these countries that doesn’t fit their interest so no one should be surprised that when they get a chance they reject it. That it’s somehow seen as “wrong” or “against the US” is nothing but propaganda to delegitimize people looking after their own interest instead of the Jewish globalhomo.
You have wonder if we have real elections in the US. It’s apparent that the Jews are right burning the damn cities down with their antifa and BurnLootMurder. Certain cites and voting district frequently have more votes in elections that they have actual people in the districts.
It’s also not so much a stretch that if other countries are not allowed to follow their own interest then how long before we are in the same boat?

You know I like Kaplan’s books. He’s very entertaining but he’s Jewish and Jews tend to almost invariably only see, or at least emphasize, the point of view that most favors whatever scheme the Jews are cooking up this month.
Think about the other Kaplan, Robert D. Kaplan and his book book Imperial Grunts. Look how now that we are fighting the Jews wars for them all of sudden the military is some wonder thing that everyone should honor and respect but not a few decades ago the Jews were blowing up Army recruitment centers.
