Not taking a blind bit of notice of a million people in the streets..just supporting a third rate dictator because of Israel and actually saying it out loud !

You STILL haven't got it, have you ?
Democracy is OK .... IF the people elect the right government ! (ie ignore Hamas if they win !)
Democracy is OK .... IF the winners kow-tow to us ... otherwise a compliant dictator who has people boiled alive (as in Uzbechistan) or has people's finger nails pulled out (as in Egypt) is OK too !
Apart from that ... if the new rulers will do our torture and abuse for us (as in Egypt, Morrocco and Jordan) - so we can deny any involvement - then thats a bonus !
