> So, it is OK to invade a country, and cause losses among its civilians, if the president of that country does not qualify for the western definition of democracy?
Yes, and any "definition of democracy" is questionable, either you have it or you don't.
Do you think that Saddam was in any "definition" a democratic president?
How about Hitler, Mussolini, Mao, Stalin, Putin?
> Also, both Chile or Guatemala were democracies when the US financed and organized the coups that deposed their elected presidents, just to put some friend dictator.
That was wrong, what can I say? I don't pretend US is a good guy, it is more gray. But in that color definition Russia is black, or at least very dark gray.
And no, I'm not US citizen.
