seemed a spark at first, but has become a fire still unimaginable dimensions. When set fire to his body, Bouazizi was not aware of the historical event was starting. The sacrifice of their lives has caused a chain reaction, driving millions of people tired of covert dictatorships that repress freedom, taking to the streets to demand a change in the course of their destiny, fighting for a prosperous future and a job a decent wage they can live with some credit. No frills look, but a welfare state to which all human beings should have access.
Egypt these days focuses attention half the world, starring the covers of every newspaper-both paper and on the Net, TV news, radio stations and a number of blogs and social networks that are emerging as the fastest and most direct way to transmit to the four winds what happens in important moments like this. Tunisia seems to have taken a back seat but important events continue to occur as the arrest of the Minister of Interior that killed 210 civilians due to disproportionate action law enforcement.
Yemen is preparing for a mass demonstration as their "president" announced that will remain in office until the next election, which will not occur. These dictators do disservice to their country they love, they will not get only increase the tension between the overwhelming majority of critics of his regime, a peaceful and unarmed majority and a minority of believers who act with total violence and impunity, protected by a leaders who have already lost the reins of government, for when the village is no enemy is powerful enough to destroy him. The Egyptian army so far refused to intervene, but it's about time to initiate action against Mubarak supporters today have begun to sow unwarranted violence in streets of Cairo. Tahrir is the name of the plaza that will be remembered as the strength of the liberators, the place was shed the blood of a people who longed for freedom to achieve it.
winds also blow in Jordan to protest new touring the country. King Abdullah II has been forced to renew the executive but the protesters' demands are more democratic in another direction. They want to elect their parliamentary representatives and the prime minister, something that until now the king can do as they please. In addition, we must not forget that the fundamental demands in all countries affected by the riots are basic: reductions in commodity prices, labor, freedom of thought, access to adequate housing ... Anyway, things seem to us to step imaginable but we will not take too long to sue.
look expectantly the evolution of the situation in these countries. Respect the choice to take as long as they are agreed to by the people. Celebrate the awakening needs of these millions of human beings who deserve to live with dignity because, as one who sang is gone:
"There will be a day when all
looking up
see a land that put Liberty
* needed to put a little in order my ideas with all the information that my mind gets these days. I still have a lot to think about but as a first step and time is, I think that is enough. The next, more.
