아라비아 사람 세계에 있는 변화?
2008년 5월 30일저희에게 미소하는 이유를 주는 아라비아 사람 세계에서 오늘 2개의 긍정적인 뉴스가 있다. 1개는 Houda Nonoo, 미국에 국가의 대사로 임금 알루미늄 Khalifa에 의해 Hamad Isa 임명된 유태인 바레인 사람에 관하여 이다. 바레인은 원형에서 확실히 온건한 것 여겨지더라도, 그들이 여성 및 유태인을 주게 기꺼이 한ㄴ다는 것을 (이 경우에는, 동일한 사람) 유명한 포스트 듣는 것이 아직도 좋다. 정보 더를 위해, 보십시오 예루살렘 포스트.
에 있는 다른 이야기 예루살렘 포스트 14 년 이상 현금에서 $150,000를 받기를 위한 이스라엘 국무총리의 Ehud Olmert 타락 예심에 관하여 보고에 아라비아 사람 반응 하고 관계된다. While it is clear that some of the posters don’t like Israel, it seems as though most of them respect the fact that Israel’s justice system works even against elected representatives in the highest positions of power. Some are even critical of Ehud Olmert for taking so little money! Many responders laud Israel as an example that Arab countries should use, as it’s clear that the Arabs realize the corruption that occurs in their countries. Comments include:
- “the reason why Israel has lasted for so long is because of its independent and fair judicial system. I challenge the Arabs to have such an independent judicial system.”
- “Only a few thousand dollars? What a fool! This is what an Egyptian minister gets in a day or what a Saudi CEO gets in 45 minutes, or a Kuwaiti government official in five minutes. This is what the physician of the emir of Qatar gets every 30 seconds.”
- “Unfortunately, this is the real democracy. Our enemies are very good in practicing democracy. In the Arab world, our leaders steal everything and no one ever dares to ask a question.”
- “I swear Israel is a state that will succeed. They are prosecuting their prime minister because of tens of thousands of dollars. What about the millions of dollars that Mahmoud Abbas and the Palestinian Authority stole? How come the Palestinian people are still hungry?”
Is the Arab world finally seeing the virtues of Israel? Do these sentiments reflect the consensus in the Arab world? Unlikely. But given the Arab world distaste for Israel, to put it lightly, the fact that these opinions are shared in public forums (albeit online) could be a step in the right direction. Perhaps it’s no reason to be overly optimistic, but it is a step in the right direction. Let’s hope justified criticisms of leadership in the Arab world, by Arabs, continues - it shows that people are waking up to the reality that Israel is not their enemy - their own leadership is.
