Elected government that acts without consulting it's electorate on major issues is nearly as bad as dictatorships. My point was that no country should wage war on another without the support of it's people. That support should be a democratic process not a media event. I don't believe that that statement is possible to acheive because most of us a re too busy with our own little lives to do jack sh*t about it.
