"For 60 years, my country, the US, pursued stability at the expense of democracy in this region, here in the Middle East, and we achieved neither," Ms Rice said. "Now, we are taking a different course. We are supporting the democratic aspirations of all people."


Ms Rice is exactly right. What we have been doing since Bush came into office is to instill democracy into these unsettled regions. It is an exact reversal of what used to be done. It is what SHOULD be done.
