Fatigue slaughter the defenders of human rights, the true democrats, idealists, those who always believed in man in general, every time we hear impassioned speeches of those dictators who are reluctant to relinquish power. There
in the world today, many dictatorships, among which we highlight:
Cuba, the Castro brothers in power since 1959, for 51 years;
Libya, Gaddafi has been in power since 1969;
Yemen;
Egypt President Hosni Mubarak has been in power for 30 years;
Sudan Omar al-Bashir, in power since 1989;
Zimbabwe, Robert Mugabe, since 1980;
Angola, José Eduardo dos Santos since 1979;
China, Hu Jintao since 2003;
Iran, Ali Khamenei since 1989.
Many of these are considered "democratic dictatorship", supported by democratic countries, is the president, dictator, Hosni Mubarak of Egypt, which since the death of Anwar Sadat in power and receives the support, both moral and financial it is said that about $ 1.5 billion, said the largest democracy of the USA today.
Today, Egypt is going through turbulent times with the people to the streets demanding an end to the Mubarak era, being violently attacked by suspected pro-government, which are actually undercover police officers to pro-government demonstrators, with the sole intention to stifle the protests in the streets.
Now many countries are demanding the immediate departure of the Egyptian president, and so washed the USA. My question is: Just now demand his departure? Only now he has come to be regarded as dictator? For 30 years he was considered a Democrat, became the dictator now?
prudence displayed by Washington at the situation in Egypt is easily explained: President Hosni Mubarak has been a valuable ally to the United States against Islam and in peace efforts between Israel and the Palestinians using all its power and influence with other Arab leaders.
Egypt served, and always, the American and Israeli interests such as Reza Pahlavi, Shah of Iran who ruled that country from 1941 to 1971, maintaining close relationships with Westerners who could not resist the revolt of the Ayatollahs in Iran who imposed the religious regime becoming great enemy of the USA.
This is the real fear of Americans, and why not say to Israel, from Egypt to lose another revolt as of now and come back a religious government like Iran, a foe within Arabic. Thus we understand why the Americans do not ask, so far, the immediate departure of Mubarak. It's the time they need the Americans to be able to tailor a government as they please and have time for a "democratic transition organized" (???) thing that Mubarak has never made.
I say this after reading a note given by the Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported that: "What a secret message, Israel asked the United States and several European countries that support the stability of the Egyptian regime of Hosni Mubarak." "The interest of the West and the entire Middle East is to maintain stability of the regime in Egypt," says the memo, sent last week, according to Haaretz.
"Therefore, we must stop public criticism to President Hosni Mubarak, "the text of the message that the Israeli Army Radio interpreted as criticism of the United States and Europe, supporting more than Mubarak. Note that this a spokesman of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu refused to confirm or deny the information.
Until now, Israeli leaders have adopted a low profile regarding the situation in Egypt. Netanyahu, who ordered his ministers to refrain from commenting on the popular uprising in neighboring , said Sunday that Israel would "preserve stability and regional security." Panic is
widespread, both Egypt and Jordan today supported Israel, but this support base embedded in fragilissima through bloody dictators collude with the maintenance of poverty and the status quo, Israel, militarized country from head to toe, financed by grants U.S. daily crushing the Palestinian people.
And the worst is the West's insistence on proclaiming Israel a democratic state. Democratic? Israel does not recognize civil marriage, its constitution allows for "democratic torture", built a wall separating Palestinian territory a true apartheid.
But wall??, Apartheid ?? This has not been banned? Ah! Yeah! Israel and the West can sign in below. But hey, this was not even the West, democratic Iraq that supported the apartheid regime in South Africa? (Can not hurt to ask right?). Even
grudgingly, Americans and Israelis will have to live with a new scenario in the Arab world. First it was Tunisia, Egypt and now the popular ferment can bring further embarrassment to the government of the American president and not only: Yemen, Algeria, Saudi Arabia and even Jordan, another country that, along with Egypt signed a peace agreement with Israel.
And let us not forget that the 22 Arab League countries, only two, I said, both countries recognize officially Israel, Egypt and Jordan have exactly the same as those bordering Israel.
The U.S. is caught between a rock and sword: a conjoined its basic principles, democracy, pragmatism, ie, maintain and support their allies in power.
And why these riots? Quite simply perpetuated because these dictatorships do not respect individual rights, much less collective, transforming society in a large concentration of poor and ignorant, lacking information because the press is censored and even sermons are previously censored.
Thus an Islamic Middle East will win as a "religious democracy" will emerge based on the Koran, that the fault of those same leaders as despots in power who see only their aspirations to indulge themselves in office, enriching themselves at the expense of the sweat people sending money to Western foreign banks, buying real estate in Europe, as is the case with the Egyptian president who sent his family to his home in London.
no good, then become Islamic Republics of complaining.
