We have heard about the " Arab Spring " ,
under which , over the past 3 years,
> Libyans
overthrew Muammar Gaddafi
> People of
Iraq ousted Saddam Hussein
> Tunisians
threw out Ben Ali
> Yemenese
exiled Ali Abdullah Saleh
No doubt , with overt - and covert - help from the
Western Powers
But the most important factor was that , in all of
these cases , entire population was united in fighting a single , common enemy
- their Dictator
Now turn to ,
> Syria
where a number
of rebel factions are fighting each other for last 2 years , even as they
struggle to get rid of dictator Assad ( - who is having fun , since the Western
World cannot make up its mind , which rebel faction it ought to support ! )
> Egypt
where
pro-Mubarak and anti-Mubarak ( or Muslim Brotherhood and its opponents ) are
fighting each other , while their military Chief Sisi announces his candidature
for President's position !
A Dictator disguised as a Democrat ? You
bet !
Obviously , Egyptian military rulers are having the
last laugh !
Neither in Syria , nor in Egypt , Arab Spring is
succeeding , due to the infighting of those opposed to Assad and Mubarak
That reminded me of the ( in ) fighting that broke out
last evening between BJP supporters and Aam Aadmi Party workers in Delhi , Lucknow
, Allahabad and Bhopal
Have they forgotten , WHO is the real ENEMY of the
People of India ?
Fortunately , India being a democracy ruled by corrupt
politicians of our own choosing ( in 2009 ) , no foreign power is expected to
intervene
But the Congress leaders must be laughing with unabashed joy !
