Street Temptation..

By default worldwide, all security agencies would appreciate if people stay at their homes, work places or schools with limited outdoor activities; only to commute or to shop.. The less people are in the streets, the more security is intact, managed and controlled.. This is the simple equation to start with.. While it recommends to get the people off the streets, it never allows for the “Street-Temptation” to turn into a custom for the commons.. Because if they do, they will not go back home.. This was significantly repeated since the French Revolution, in Europe, Asia and lately across the Arab world..

Inevitably, people would like to walk around to socialize or entertain.. Socialization will slowly unify the consensus on all issues of interest.. Persons will exchange ideas, information and news in an easy one-to-one manner.. This would evolve to be a gathering, when a topic would attract more audiences.. While many people lack the capacity to assess the credibility of speakers or weighting what is said, then measuring how right or wrong becomes controversial.. Notably, the public consensus is only build up by continuation and resilience of the advocates.. If the outdoor gathering interprets such mood, then security agencies will start worry..

Once people step down to the streets, with their protest as loud as their fierce demand for change, lots of security appraisals would be reviewed to contain the situation.. This had called the use of violent anti-riot squads in Gdansk, Bangkok or lately in Athens.. Also when protest escalated, it had called the use of ugly armed forces in Budapest, Diyarbakir or lately in Bishkek.. Notably in these cases, there was a commander tries to contain a mutiny, rather than a governor tries to eliminate the opposition.. Between Mutiny and Opposition are the calls to: Replace the governing system not only the government, Denounce the executive powers which spoil the governors, or Question the privileges of sovereignty not the honor of nationalism.. Democracy, Freedom or Diligence are fine-tune clashes’ rather than true public demands.. The commons are always concerned on the basic needs of survival, or the security of such survival, rather than the luxuries of social or political ranking..

Typically and anonymously, the public system would continuously breed renewed leaders and leaderships.. This process is fetal for the humane existence and civilization.. Leaders are usually charismatic, eloquent, or just resilient.. Sometimes their social or professional attributes would present them to the focus.. Leadership is not necessarily associated with logic, nor partner with knowledge, but often reflects simple patriarchic or big-brotherhood syndromes; which subconsciously the street protesters would get lost without.. This is the true description of the current public unrest and unease across the Arab world; where no leaders are available or potentially identified..!!

There is an unfamiliar pragmatic role states that the only way to sustain any endeavor; is to enable the healthy breeding of new rivals.. A person’s life cycle is too short compared with any well-planned philosophy, activity or business.. Suppressing the opposition, masterminding loyalists or any dictatorship form would curse the endeavors with short life.. Without visionary and enlightened leaders, societies would quickly age and turn barren.. Without freshly sustainable leaders; street activities would inevitably lead to chaos..!

Change is never meant as an anti-boredom medication, but a healthy necessity to align processing of livelihood to our interests and wishful-thinking..
