A true democracy
will eventually be doomed to failure. In its simplest form a democracy could be two wolves and a sheep voting on
what's for dinner. Won't last long. A democracy established in a place like Iraq, would eventually be taken over
by a sect that was fairly elected into power by a majority and then that sect changes law to whatever their whim
will be. In essence making it likely that they will never be voted out.
I don't think there has ever been a
nation in the history of the earth that has been governed by a true democracy, for more than a blip in
history.
