44. It is, yes. Isolation only justifies the claims of radical elements in a country.
It's akin to the United States setting out to prove that everything the anti-American element in a country states is true. I'd quibble a bit with your timeline, but I agree with the fundamental point: that when we choose only to recognize the dictatorial possibility instead of the democratic possibility, then we decide which of those possibilities will arise.
