If I were to take a snapshot of moderate, sophisticated opinion in
this part of the world, it's moved from being mildly interested in
the show but not really thinking the outcome will change anything
to being scornful of the democracy and values of the society that
is doing so much to make life unbearable for so many people in this
part of the world.
That's the problem when you evangelise democracy but then show it
to be a flawed and corrupt system that's as immoral and debased as
the systems you attack.
From Huckerbee in Israel suggesting the Palestinians find somewhere
else to live, through the selection of an inexperienced nobody with
too much baggage as potentially the Vice President to the constant
roar of 'God Bless America' while riot police mash free people,
this is not really turning out so well, is it?
