There are some in the Indian subcontinent, even if they aren't progressive (communists etc.), and hardcore lefts in other places. Yet the Middle East has no true left wing governments at all, whether progressive leftists or some other type.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8003335.post-41913831003956802162015-02-02T17:46:16.185+02:002015-02-02T17:46:16.185+02:00Armies are supposed to protect the country from ex...Armies are supposed to protect the country from external enemies not rule over the country. <br />Egypts over reliance on the military has always limited its development.<br />Egypt now has a growing terrorism problem and as every country has learned terrorism cannot be defeated militarily.<br />Muslims are coming under attack from other muslims.<br />This is a bad situation.<br />Leftists and socialists are minor forces in the muslim world.<br />Religious conservatives ISIS, Ikhwan, Taliban, Hamas, Hezbollah, Boko Haram, Iran, Al Shabab , the GIA in Algeria are major forces and growing.<br />The other side the governments, kingdoms and armies are also conservatives.<br />So it is a battle for power between conservatives who dont want change and claim to have legitimacy. Arab socialism of the 60, s and Nasser is irrelevent because the arguments are between conservatives about power not between conservatives and leftists over development, progress, education, health, economic justice and rights.<br />There are some socialists but they will only get crushed in the middle. China, India and Russia are conservative led systems at present. Thats most of the world. US alternates. Europe and Latin America in general the only places where the progressive left is viable. For conservatives "security" or dominance of power comes first. For socialists "development" is the first priority or rights because without them no security is possible.pirooznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8003335.post-57822327219676669352015-01-31T11:29:42.821+02:002015-01-31T11:29:42.821+02:00wouldn't morsis term have been coming to an en...wouldn't morsis term have been coming to an end soon...had we left his term to run its course. wouldn't we have been kicking him out peacfully through the ballot box....Those who were duped by the military and the old regime to join the show and the fake 'revolution' should be forgiven as emotions were at a frenzy but no-one can really believe this situation noow is better than what we had. For thier failings (which were many) the ikhwan were too weak to abuse their power to this extent and to mass murder their opponents. They needed support from other groups, sadly they chose to become buddies with the old regime thinking it would be a slow transition that they would ultimately control. More fool them. Lets hope they learnt their lesson.Latifanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8003335.post-70254465203334636282015-01-30T21:59:38.535+02:002015-01-30T21:59:38.535+02:00I want to ask one thing from every patriot whateve...I want to ask one thing from every patriot whatever his or her opinion:<br /><br />Don't ever speak down the egyptian army and it's heroes.<br /><br />Don't ever speak up the terrorists coackroches and kill them where you can.<br /><br />That's all.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
