There Is a History of Democracy in the Middle East

Yes, democracy is possible in the Middle
East .   In fact, democracy
has had few but important manifestations in the Middle
East .   Mohammed Mossadegh
was a democratically elected leader in 1952 in Iran .   Our CIA ousted him and installed a tyrant in Iran , i.e. the
Shah.   In the early 90s, Algeria elected a democratic government that was
replaced by a military junta supported by France and given political
blessings by our government.
