They said the Arabs don't want democracy, they cant function in a democracy, they need a dictator to contain them and control their savage impulses. All this we're seeing right now...can be traced back to the fall of Hussein if you ask me.

Um, it traces much further back than that. Do you honestly think Arab democracy was invented by the U.S. in Iraq?
And if this were really the case, why is the U.S. so afraid of Arab democracy now?
Oh, wait, maybe because the U.S. brand of export democracy is thinly veiled imperialism. And now that Arabs are fighting for and getting their own reforms, the U.S. doesn't know what the fuck to do. Imagine that...the U.S. not being able to exert their influence to ensure the game is played their way.
