  Hey, you found the information better than I did. 

  Well, democratic in the sense of the internal regime or the vast dictatorship 
over hundreds of millions of colonial slaves was none of the states sitting in 
the UN General Assembly. 

  But at least 13 of those stood for democracy in West Asia, against the 
continuation of the colonial rule by a racist colonial settler state and the 
partitioning of a country against the will of its people. 

  That is, they stood for democracy.
