In other words, democracy is one example of an attempt to have and preserve a society based on human rights. It is perhaps the best attempt, though that is not entirely clear.

Don't force it, but saying governments in which terrorists have been running around for decades are stable is ignorant. It'd be like saying England was stable during the Reformation.

First off, Iraqs troubles started from Imperialism, forcing democracy down their throaghts, was just picking at the wound. Secondly, my understanding was that pre Saddam Iraq was a monarchy and then a mess of military coups
