The POTUS can arbitrarily take military action as long as it can somehow be tied to 9/11 so in effect the type of government doesn't matter much when it comes to the military threat each country imposes. Also, the US has a history of military intervention, suppression, assassinations and overthrowing democratically elected governments. That the US is more "liberal" is about as reassuring as being told the potion that is being used to poison you is 100% organic and GMO-free.
