I gotta totally disagree on that. Of course everyone wants democracy. Everyone on earth wants it. Almost nobody who lives in a totalitarian shithole wants it to be that way. So that's a given. And of course the Hawks didn't give a shit about bringing democracy to the Middle-East. They were just doing what benefitted themselves and their parties short term future. The Hawks don't want democracy in the middle east. They just want leaders over there who will play ball with the US. "Democracy" is a euphemism for that.
