The government may change faces from time to time, but it's not like we fight wars for democracy - we fight wars for capitalism and for oil.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
It is often noted that it can be hard for democracies to fight wars because of changing public opinion.
We think that democracy can change a lot of things, but we're being fooled, because democracy is not the election. We've been taught that democracy is having elections. And it isn't. Elections are the most horrendous aspect of democracy. It's the most mundane, trivial, disappointing, dirty aspect.
Democracy is still a radical idea in a world where we often confuse images with realities, words with actions.
But on the other hand government takes away a certain amount of liberty and in some countries it takes away all of liberty. And it will, everywhere, if people who fight government do not fight government any longer.
Not all political actors share our vision of fighting terrorism, lessening tensions in the region and focusing on building the economy. It is natural that they would challenge the government, but we have fought every challenge effectively. The daily ups and down of democracy should not be interpreted as lack of stability.
Things move very slowly in politics. We seem to fight the same wars over and over again.
Democracy involves that old-fashioned thing called working it out.
Government is waging war against the people.
Here's to democracy. May we get the government we deserve.
Most of wars or military coups or invasions are done in the name of democracy against democracy.
