No two democracies have ever gone to war with each other!
Bah! What about NATO versus Serbia?
Hmm. But NATO's not really democratic. I mean, it's made up of democracies, but it isn't one itself.
Well, all right, how about the US versus Chile?
But they weren't officially at war. US intelligence was just helping Chilean rebels. So it was really the CIA versus Chile, and the CIA isn't a democracy.
Yeah. Looks like you might be right after all.
