Removing Tyrants from Power

Paper Summary:

This paper explains that gross abuses of human rights and the threat of terrorism to America itself give the President of the U.S. the right to eradicate the evil of oppression in a world and an era where this can no longer be tolerated in the name of any god or any man. The author points out that the United States has historically earned the right to bring liberty and self-government to oppressed countries. The paper relates that, having removed such tyrants, the political system in the target country needs to be replaced with one of democracy; not having experience in such a regime, the country's leaders will have to be assisted in establishing this new regime.

From the Paper:

"Shuja furthermore emphasizes the need for this country within the world, not only as peacekeeper, but also as provider of opportunity, liberation and human rights legislation. On the other hand, however there is a large amount of anti-Americanism in response to the country's attempt to deal with terrorism. Here the United States can use its cross-cultural knowledge to gain an understanding of the basis of anti-Americanism, and to deal with it accordingly."
