Bruce, once you understand that post # 63 is the Platonic ideal of "utter hogwash," then and only then will you understand my world.

The victory in the European Theater of Operations stands in refutation of your every word there.

Were we "fascists" to defeat the Fascist nations of Italy and Germany and make democracies there? We were not. And taking that as an exemplar, I propose no other outcome.

Bruce, you just don't believe in democracy at all -- not enough, at any rate to want to see it spread further across the globe, in despite of any obstacle. Why should that be, of all the Godawful things to have taking over your mind? Note too that the grounds for this, philosophical or other, are yet unexpressed and unexplained. That's no good for your argument, Bruce -- for look just how free I am to speculate, and what suspicions the speculations engender.
