Operation:..Prometheus!

According to the Ancient Greek Legends,the god Prometheus created man from clay and water, and then bestowed upon him many gifts, such as fire, metal working, map making, star charting, medicine,and the skill of chariot and boat construction.But, for all his gifts to man, the one gift that he, or any other god, could not give him, was Democracy. Indeed, that gift would elude man for many centuries, until it would finally be achieved by man himself, in the Shining City called America, the Nation that would lift mankind out of the Dark Ages and become the last, best hope for mankind, and the personification of Democracy itself.
America's goal, from its birth, was to be a defender of freedom and liberty around the world, and to promote Democracy as well. But despite this goal, liberty and freedom remain an elusive thing to most nations around the globe.Why? This question has remained unanswered, for thousands of years.How can Democracy be created, Prometheus- like, from the ashes of tyranny?
Yet, America has tried, with its attempts at  nation building around the globe.The United States goal has always been to dethrone tyrants and to promote Democracy in the process.But how do you promote Democracy to nations that will simply seek out a new tyrant or despot, to replace the one we dethrone for them?In truth the very idea of so called"nation building" among cultures that have never known freedom, and are in the grip of Islamic based tyranny, and extremism, is laughable to say the least. The simple reality is that America may be able to end dictatorships by military victory, but, to create a  free Republic to replace it, well,.History has proven that only  complete annihilation of an entire nation, by all out war,..can accomplish this.Germany and Japan are prime examples of this. These formerly tyrannical governments, who were determined to conquer and enslave the earth, only became free democracies because they were completely crushed in a war, by the overwhelming military forces of America and its Allies. They were crushed , and forced to surrender , unconditionally, or face complete annihilation. Al Queda and ISIS now control Iraq, Syria, Libya, and Yemen, and are gaining new territory every day,for only one reason;..America has withdrawn its troops from Iraq and refuses to forcefully engage ISIS.And, if America won't fight, neither will any of its tenuous, untrustworthy, Arab Allies of the UAE, and that is why the middle east will remain in the grip of terrorism, for many years to come.Complete obliteration , and a scorched earth strategem, is the only way to ever turn the terror infected middle east, into a haven for American style Democracy.
America has the airpower alone,..to completely obliterate Al Queda and ISIS in less than a week,if it had the will to do so.But, under the Neville Chamberlain -like appeasement rule of President Obama ,the American military has instead withdrawn completely from Iraq, with Obama refusing to sign the Status of Forces agreement that would allow an American Military force to remain permanently in Iraq .This of course , virtually assured the destruction of the tenuous Iraqi Democracy that our surge victory had created,  and allowed the growing forces of ISIS to seize control of Iraq, and create the first terror state in the process. The bottom line is this;..there will never any kind of Democracy in the Middle East, unless America creates it from scratch, like Prometheus, by completely vaporizing the forces of ISIS with overwhelming, unrelenting airstrikes, and thereby forcing the unconditional surrender of any ISIS and Al Queda  survivors. That is the only way to create lasting peace in the Middle East, since thousands of years of endless tyranny oppression and genocidal violence have demonstrated one thing quite clearly;..the people of the Middle East, in general,are simply lacking that one, vital ingredient necessary to achieve the goal of Democracy , and a free Republic, on their own.Unlike the citizens of America,..they are unwilling to fight,and die for it. And, as history has shown ,quite clearly,that is the only way it can ever be achieved, by the people of any sovreign nation,.. unless the hand of America forces it into existence, of course.
The Gifts that the god Prometheus gave man were many,but the gift of Freedom and Liberty , is a gift that man must always mold himself, not from the clay and water of Prometheus, but from the courage, sweat , blood, and sacrifice that has enabled man to transcend, even the gods themselves, in greatness.
