Well it was when you said "the cold war is the only real triumph of democracy over totalitarianism" that I pointed out that your version of "democracy" seemed to include overthrowing democratic governments. Now I'm quite aware that you are willing to overlook inconvenient facts like that as you think it was for the greater good, but you can't really call it democracy that was fighting totalitarianism when it was specifically against democracy if what people decided didn't suit them.
