Democracy is a communicable disease and a double-edged sword. How it will impact, nobody can forecast. It spreads and may impact China, Saudi Arabia, Osamas etc. etc. If somebody thinks it will help them, it may temporarily. But in long term, if it establishes real democracy, it is people who win and see through the design of evil.

ReplyDeleteGood one! But, to be entirely fair, they didn't intervene in Egypt. Nor was it by their prompting closer home that made Bhutan go the democratic way.
ReplyDeleteThe 'intervention' in Iraq and Afghanistan was probably for more realpolitik reasons ...
As for Kashmir, wasn't it was our own Prime Minister of the day who asked for the UN resolution regarding plebiscite ... ?
