I'm fairly unconvinced as to the ability of any force to impose a political system that has no indigenous roots. We've had 500 years to perfect Wester European democracy, and yet we think we can institute it in places where basically monarchy and dictatorships are the norms.
When power has come from the barrel of a gun for so long, its got to be really difficult to just 'tell' the people that it doesn't work that way, and in fact power comes from the legislature, judiciary, and executive.
I can see how that might not make sense to people who have little (no) experience with it.
