IT COULD HAVE BEEN DIFFERENT .......



Among world governments , as well as media officials and private citizens , there have been very few instances of anger at what took , and is taking place on the ground in the Middle-East in general and all its countries , populations and different ethnic and religious groups .


I'm not only referring here to Arab or Musslem regions , albeit their numerical dominance , but surely to all entities including Israel and its Jewish populations , and Christian more or less politically dominated Lebanon .


The whole of the Middle-East today is merely a fading echo of earlier ages . All the area's rulers practically from independence till nowadays were nothing but  chauvinist  groups who only thought in bald terms of grab and downright sheer brutality .


All Middle-Eastern leaders , whether political , religious ,  dictators or democratically elected , proved to be  totally incompetent to assume true responsibility for an area of such complex interests as the Middle-East . All countries with no exception had become throughout the years totally or partially dependent  and addicted upon foreign powers , politically and financially , a pattern so engrossed nowadays in every aspect of the daily life of these populations and their leaders . Putting the different donors in a position to dictate to all countries and entities .


Another of the fundamental causes of the Middle-Eastern  geopolitical ills , was that most of its countries and populations were being kept historically from achieving real  independence or unity , a situation that continues  under Israeli colonialism and declared hegemony towards all its neighbors , a policy that keeps  real peace prospects  and prosperity dead .


The intolerance of  groups different from the majority , kept most of these countries on the brink of chaos and non governance , the final implosion of most Middle-Eastern entities including the Palestinian/Israeli scene , are only real confirmations of the century long failures of leadership .


An area that lived most of its independent days , in most aspects , in a Quixotic make belief world . Hopefully coming generations might find it possible to see the situation as it really existed .


My usual thanks for listening .
