• Hay un punto oculto que no se está sacando a relucir, y es que es inconcebible que Estados Unidos permita la democracia en Oriente Medio, y por una razón muy sencilla. Basta con echar un vistazo a las encuestas de opinión pública árabe. Existen. No se pueden encontrar en la prensa, pero existen de prestigiosas agencias de sondeos. Publicadas por instituciones importantes. Y lo que muestran es que si hubiera democracia en Oriente Medio, todo el programa estadounidense de dominación de Oriente Medio se iría al garete.

• Ever since our country came into existence, we have always assumed that we are better than the Arabs. But we are noticing that these are no longer backward people. Suddenly we are confronted with a new situation - the fact that the Arab world maybe thinks just as democratically as we do, perhaps even more democratically. Where does this leave us? After all, we're supposed to be the only democracy in the Middle East!

• Some who call themselves realists question whether the spread of democracy in the Middle East should be any concern of ours. But the realists in this case have lost contact with a fundamental reality: America has always been less secure when freedom is in retreat; America is always more secure when freedom is on the march.
