To democracy!




I don't know if these uprisings of Middle East will follow the destiny of the Animal Farm, but I found a social evolution in that part of the world. A contagious evolution that by domino effect spreads out to all the countries of Middle East. An effect that might start from the after election coup d’état in Iran. The fact that Egyptians come to the point that not only believed but also acted against the ridicules monopoly of Mubarak power, will be a turning point in the history of Egypt even though the pleasant results will be felt many years from today.  The resignation of the Mubarak and Ben ali revealed that the public of the middle eastern countries are much more advanced and civilized than their leaders. This time the Tunisians and Egyptians came to the point that ask for a non-imported democracy with origins inside of the country.
Although at the same time I am sure this path will have several ups and downs but in long term it will result in a modern, peaceful middle east. 










Yesterday, thousands of Iranian people had a manifestation to not only show their support to Egyptians and Tunisians but also to show that the green anti-governmental movement of Iran is still alive.  The Story of Iran is a bit different. The totalitarian regime of Iran, decide to resist against the public with any means. On the other hand, the number of the pro-governmentals is still high enough to support the government. Although this will prolong the inevitable procedure of the democratization in the world, but can never block it.

Education is the only mean that can increase the speed of the progress in the world. Maybe the best support from the free world is to educate people.  By people I mean, not only the protester but also the totalitarians. In the world of knowledge it will be too difficult to abuse the ignorance of the people with fictions, ideologies and religions.
