Hi, Roy Witt!
I read your message from  23.03.2014 14:35
about War.

  ak>> But Syria (before the Civil war), the Ukraine, Venezuela -- have
  ak>> one thing in common. They all have democratic elections.
  RW>
  RW> LOL! With 100% voter turn out. I'd call that, ballot box stuffing.


    I'll explain my thought.
    The Ukraine at the beginning of 21st century became an example of
revolutionary technology.

    First of all: when a state has non-democratic elections (like
Uzbekistan, for instance) the result is predictable -- the totalitarian
ruler gets almost 100% of votes. Nobody dares to dispute it. The country
is stable and totalitarian.

    But when we have the Ukraine, Venezuela, Syria we have democratic
elections and the opposition gets the result _close_ to the dominant
party. That is the place where problems arise. The opposition should
either wait for the next elections or it can simply declare that
elections were unfair. No recounting will help. The opposition calls all
its people on the streets to show the world how popular it is, and it
declares that the only way out is: to put the president in resignation.
Or it will held endless rally until the end.

    After that, the democracy does not longer mean fair elections -- it
means the right to fight the state and overthrow the current power
forcefully. If the opposition is against of pro-Russia government it
will be supported by the West automatically.

    In Ukraine it has caused 10 year long chaos; in Syria the opposition
preferred a military way; Venezuela for a while goes along the Ukrainian
path -- the path of a great chaos. Venezuela has democratic elections,
but the opposition doesn't want to wait so long. It wants power
immediately -- can you see thousands of our people on the streets?!
Democracy is coming!

    The Ukraine has served a very bad example for all the world,
especially for those who build democracy. Last years the situation
repeated itself in almost every Arabic state. Chaos wrapped them all.
Tell me at least one country in the world where the Ukrainian scenario
(a violent overthrowing of the power which came to power through
democratic elections) has brought prosperity.

    Democratic prosperity cannon be born by violence of the minority. It
is born when the majority of the people comes to power and things go on
according to the majority _will_. If the opposition exist it should wait
for the moment it becomes majority. Then in their victory will be sense.

Bye, Roy!
