What's going on in the middle east?

Syria, Libya, Egypt -- You've heard it all over the news. Governments falling to the people's calls for democracy, and some still in tact. We've seen Musharef stepping down, and Ghadafi dying, and it makes it seem like the middle east is a really bad place. Even in Syria, a simillar situation. Media over here however is broadcasting these leaders as evil, and in my opinion they are not, and I'll tell you why.....

If you look at the Middle East, you see that there are so many different types of people with som many different religions and forms of those religions. You'll also see that all of these different people have different ideas and that democracy over there doesn't work.

Here, we have our own opinions, but no one cares what you say and who you believe. In the Middle East, all the different ideas and beliefs don't work together. I'm not speaking just religious wise, because muslims and christians get along very well, at least the ones I've seen. This is exactly why the Middles Eastern countries need someone in power to keep things organized. Without a guiding body, and someone to guide them, the Middle Eastern countries would crumble.

And also, In the case of Egypt's democracy, the Egyptian people must learn that democracy doesn't come right away. As they say, Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither was democracy. The people in Egypt are complaining because they have yet to have rights, but they're only basing this on the European and North American democracy. They must realize that Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither will their democracy.

As for democracy in the Middle East, I believe it doesn't work all to well, and that Middle Eastern Countries are bette off with the leaders they have.
