Bofin's objection is perfect and in no way hypothetical... you know very well that what defines a citizen of a country is not the fact that he lives in that land, or is human, or whatever... citizens of other nations are not covered by my nation's political system... and so far there is no global imposition of human rights... I wish there was... the US is the closest thing to that... so whenever a genocide is decided democratically the fact that the citizens being slauthered are not citizens of said democratic country is precisely what makes the decision democratic...

But there's still my objection that democracy is being defined to include a set of moral precepts... when in fact it need not be so... and actually isn't in the truer acception of the word... which is the dictionary one I'd say... maybe someday it will be Dahl's... I hope not... it seems unnecessary complication to me...
