Democracy attempt in Egypt

From the beginning the change of the regime was clearly too easy for me to believe. I saw the Egyptians celebrate their military during that uprising treating it as if it is for the people not the government. Watching that I remembered how I wondered when Saddam's military was bombing and attacking my city in Iraq in the uprising of 1991 why some people were claiming that the attacking solders were brought from far. So, apparently it was also part of a similar wishful thinking that the military in a dictatorship is with the people not the government or is easily ready for a spontaneous change from that to be on the side of justice and democracy.  I don't expect to see one dictatorship on earth that is not supported by its military or even anyone who would be crazy enough to try to impose a dictatorship without arranging things with the military of the country first. But I thought, who knows may be the situation is different there. Seeing people go to the elections and voting there, that probability appeared to be strengthened despite the fact that inside I was far from being convinced a real change happened . However, it did not take long to see the military take back direct control. I was correct and so were probably so many other people there who , being like me from that part of the world, couldn't believe a real change happened. So many of those people probably did not go to vote whether because of fear or seeing what was going on as a joke and as a result a potentially very different voting results did not materialize while many in the west kept complaining that "islamists" won the election.

Election System In Iran - 2

I casted a doubt on the correctness of election results in Iran in that post because of the complaints that happened with Ahmedinajad's second term election. Otherwise, unlike the situation of Putin in Russia for example, regarding the question of whether the election results in Iran are correct or manipulated by the ruling system I think they are correct. So, after writing that there I thought I probably should try more not to add to the confusion in distinguishing between correct and fake results world wide if I truly think otherwise. 

Furthermore, after that I also noticed the question of why would the system there need to fabricate results with its level of restriction on candidacy?  

Again, I am referring to  the question of fabrication of results by the ruling system not what candidates or those on their side may do if they can. 

 

Election System In Iran

Aside from how much of the elections in Iran is real and the question of what gives you the right to impose Islam as a starting point (although I wouldn't be much surprised if that can be spun back based on  Islam itself), we see this:

Guardian Council of the Constitution ------> (by restricting candidates) Assembly of Experts 

Assembly of Experts -----> (by appointment) Supreme Leader

Guardian Council of the Constitution------> (by restricting candidates) Parliament

Supreme Leader ----> (by appointments) half of Guardian Council of the Constitution

Parliament ----> (by appointments) half of Guardian Council of the Constitution

I wonder if this was the inspiration of Putin-Medvedev's combination?

    

There is a circular dependency here and present situation may have no way to escape being  predetermined by past results. Is this more of a way to give power to people or to hijack power and make it continuously dependent on people's trust and faith or hope placed at the starting point (Like that which could have been there at the beginning after the revolution) ?  Shouldn't any reasonable constitution give the power for fresh start to the people at some recurring point?

For example although the President and Senate here appoint federal judges, still if everybody misbehave without exception, people would still have the power of fresh start to change and remove them all directly or indirectly (through the replacements they elect) without exception.  

 

Continuing from the post below:

I don't know how that crime was committed but shooting the women here makes it as if the guy, in addition to committing the act of taking lives unjustly, was in competition with the like of ISIS for the lowest scale in lack of morality and shameless act. If it were me investigating whether this was a hate crime, I probably would be looking if there is what could negate what appears to be strongly suggesting that from the onset.
