  1. It is asking an awful lot... probably too much, in fact,... for a nation of people who have no knowledge of nor history with, a free and democratic society and all the mechanisms of one, to be able to make something of it when it's suddenly dumped in their lap one day and they have nothing like a user guide to go by. It would be like taking 25 random North Koreans and dumping them on a sidewalk in downtown Seoul and saying "Right; off you go then. You're free.". It just doesn't work that way. I remember watching a video about South Africa and some black youth were very resentful of Nelson Mandela because they didn't feel their lives were any better after all these years. A western skeptic might reply "Well it's not his job to do everything for you. He freed you now you have to go and do something with it." Yes, of course they do. But they can't; they don't know how. They have zero experience with running a successful democracy on their own. They've never known anything but oppression and have no idea what they're supposed to do with this newfangled "freedom."
