Reader comment on item: [Election Monitors:] The Next Assault on American Sovereignty

Submitted by S.C.Panda (India), Aug 17, 2004 at 03:18

Dear Prof Pipes,

I consider this is a very important letter.This touches upon "Liberal Democracy vs. Translational Progressivism" and consequent diminution of State Sovereignty. The USA is a liberal democracy within its territory but has consistently supported military dictatorships around the world and Pakistan is a case in point.

When the USA evinces keen interest in monitoring election in other nations, why the same principle is not applicable to itself?

Regards, Sincerely, S.C.Panda
Prof Daniel Pipes, Director, MEF
