On Despising Western Democracies

Friends,

People who tend to describe USA's democracy as the same thing as Arab dictatorships or even
Hitler's Germany should live two or three years in Lybia or Syria and come back to have a better view of thing. One month in those countries may improve their insights.

Having living two decades under a military dictatorship, I have the experience.

In the USA, you can call G. W. Bush a killer. Go to Syria and say the equivalent about the local "president"! To apreciate that difference, you must have a taste of what is to live in such countries, under such governments.

(In Latin America, we know the difference and the knowledge is often counted in friends and relatives killed and tortured for crimes of opinion.)

Best regards, Carlos.

In 1941 & 2, a Japanese family lived across the street from me. They were
given notice, and given time to put their Greenhouse Business with another
couple to manage it while they were gone, and then they had to leave. They
weren't rounded up at gunpoint. They went peacefully, and after the war,
returned to resume their business.

In the family, there were some teen agers whom I admired a great deal. I was
sorry to see them go. The old people didn't speak English. Now some of my
friends have parents who speak Spanish, but not English.
