    to what degree can genuine democracy exist in society with great extremes of wealth and poverty?

    It can but it's an uphill battle for those with little money.

    What I find strange is your question. Since the US intervention in Iraq was based on spreading democracy according to our US president. So what was the true motive? Since those left in Iraq have little no real wealth except the oil that is part of their natural resources.
