It looks as though the Al-Assad regime has gone one step further, by killing at least 90 people (at least 30 of which were children ) in Houla.

Turkey greattsttst countrey, Syria only greattst countrey, not having mehmet in it and all.

Syria is looking really bad even in the eyes of Muslims right now. The Middle east is being fractured by technology, and all their theocracies and fascism are being exposed.

I think the Middle East will have to eventually become more like Turkey or Morocco, which isn't saying much, but still better than most places, if it wants to catch up with modern times. Neda in Iran, and the video of the Saudi woman telling the goon squad "fuck you". The east will not change over night but I think the cat is out of the bag now and they will have to change or be isolated like North Korea.

I think the middle east needs more dictators.
Democracy does not work here, although it's debatable whether it works over there in the west....

As Winston Churchill said

Quote:Many forms of Government have been tried and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all-wise. Indeed, it has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all those other forms that have been tried from time to time.
