The Beginning

Sometimes I want just to give up, to give up thinking against the regime. It is very easy. Once I tried. The doors are open when you are pro-regime. I do not mean about the benefits which can be taken of being such a lunatic. I want to emphasize the psychological comfort that offers pro-regime position.

"State controlled private" TV channels enables me to transform myself into this position. As said above, once I tried. A politician who is presented as an opposition party member (in fact, he is a pseudo-opposition party member) was talking about the economical achievements that the government accomplished, in the past years and so on... I felt like as if I live in Switzerland. "My goodness, why the opposition don't want to see how we are getting ahead of ourselves (since no country as powerful as ours, we have to compete with ourselves)?!", I thought.

Arabic Impact on Azerbaijan

The revolt spirit of the Arab world had and continues to have its impacts on the Middle East countries. Within the Arab countries itself the influence had similar results; People flown to the streets demanding their rights, and the dictators who promises changes, meantime restraining the media. However, in non-Arab countries of the region such as Turkey and Iran the situations were different.
Demonstrations took place in Turkey were quite normal and people normally expressed their will and support to the Muslim brothers. There was not even a sign of violence in the demonstrations what we cannot say about Iran. Actually, if Turkey can be considered as a country that benefited mostly from the recent events, the Islamic Republic of Iran is definitely the country who found herself in the stupidest position. It was very ridiculous when ayatollah backed the Arab revolutions calling them "Islamic" and after the demonstrations took place in Tehran, blamed Washington (and of course Tel Aviv ) in pulling the strains of the ongoing events.
