Almost 25 years ago, Palestinians taught the commons all over the world to use rubbles in fighting injustice and abuse.. 20 Years ago, bear hands had brought down Berlin walls.. 15 years ago, Mandela’s people changed a concrete regime of Apartheid.. 10 years ago, Tailor had to leave his palace in Freetown to end as Janitor in London, 5 years ago, people caught Milosevic and surrender him to ICC in the Hague.. Iraqis a year ago changed the use of shoes to be a political weapons.. In the same year; Malaysian Indian revived the peaceful resistance as created by Gandhi.. Months ago, protesters had smashed retail windows in London refusing the G-20 planned resolutions.. Today Iranian are using all protesting tactics to get their voices heard.. Is there any listeners?
The world sounds listening, but actually the war on resources is going on.. Therefore, no clear condemnation, no heard voices or support, and no political interest in the common’s goals..
I think Iranian will have to do it themselves.. and it is a hard way to go, with lots of sacrifices and hardship..
I can anticipate change to take place in 2012.. Is that the predictions for End of the World..!!

Leadership Crisis in Iran:
ReplyDeleteWhen people flood the streets, they are actually searching for a leader more than releasing their anger.. Mankind by default is patriarchic; regardless of rates of literacy or wealth. People always look for someone who has the guts and enthusiasm to lead the others, armed with patriotic and public senses. The political unrest resulted from long lasting injustice of economic frustration, would drive the people in a moment of time to walk out expressing their rejection and demand for change. This is not necessarily means their realization of what needed to be done, to reform conditions to an acceptable levels. It is almost alike the powers someone would extract from no-where to defend his existence when circumstances are odd and fetal. People would express their anger in any form they at reach of their hands; including chaotic actions that would paralyze the ruling government. However, through the bloodshed, tear-gas and rubber bullets; commons would search for a leader to guide the way ahead. This is how peoples revolutions succeed and leaders are born.
In current situation of Iran, both active rulers, and wishful ones are proven short than the peoples’ demand. Active rulers had lost many cards by creating new revolutionary guards, who blindly supports them, not the revolution itself. This has added lots to the peoples frustration in addition to the cold blood killings and humiliations of the people. Iranian are proud of their historical legacies, including the Islamic revolution itself. Such patriotic passion should be honored by the rulers not otherwise. Wishful rulers could not draw different titles from the ruling regime, as they are faithful part of it. However; it sound clear that they raised their voices as limited number from the active ruler gained more armed powers that changed the balance of powers among the corners of the regime. People supported the wishful as driven by search for change, while they are very skeptical on remodeling the country on western examples. Bottom-line, Iranian are ready to accept the regime with adequate changes that get their country back on global norms. Certainly, Iranian are proud with membership to nuclear club, being superpower in the Middle East, and achieve considerable development rate, despite the obvious poor distribution.
It is likely a truce will take place, reconsolidation and re-structuring of political powers, and enabling some social reforms to defuse the public anger. Within the process, many new street-leaders will be arrested and later released to take their activities underground. With growing patriotic and skeptics, armed elements will crack-down by confusion, which will enable the new revolution to take more serious yet unknown shape.
