In all thread debating Middle East (or even near or Far East), westerners always talk about democracy and freedom (and human rights) ..
But all of you do not consider one point :
Democracy (and freedom and human right) is not an institution or laws .. it is a mindset for population, what they perceive as democracy and freedom and human right
There are very few nations (people) in the world that have democratic mindset or freedom and understand human right ..
Was Europe democratic when Hitler and Franco or Churchill ruled ? ? am not talking about government but the mindset of the people .. do European people have now democratic mindset and know really what human right means ? do Brits have democratic mindset and human right in Cyrus sense (they same imperialist as Queen Victoria)
Hardly ..
In essence, Europeans have same mindset they had 1850, adapted to 2011 circumstances ..
Democracy, freedom, human rights are very deep issues .. it must be embedded deep in civilization and in blood, for 1000s of yrs .. can not be legislated and done is it, yes done but in 500 yrs .. Europe is neither democratic, nor free nor human right ..
Arab, north Africans do not have a tradition of democracy and human rights in Cyrus the Persian sense .. those are tribal societies last million yr ..
So, anybody talking about democracy and freedom and human rights in those space, in western sense, either he a fool or a charlatan with an agenda ..
When Germans (still) don't come with a democratic mind how can Arabia ..
