Could Egypt inspire revolution in Azerbaijan?

Re: Could Egypt inspire revolution in Azerbaijan?

Armenia, Russia and the Ukraine haven't transitioned properly towards parliamentary democracy and they are hardly very egalitarian societies. When power and wealth become centralised. It creates all sort of structural, socio-economic problems and what you don't want to end up living in is a corrupt, plutocratic society with a bloated public sector and little rule of law.

Can only parliamentary democracies have egalitarian societies? In the US for example, the gap between rich and poor has been growing for the past 20 + years, and is only getting worse. The top 10% of US controls well over 90% of the wealth.

Armenia is on an evolutionary process toward building a stronger and better state. However, it is far from being authoritarian, otherwise we wouldn't have nearly as much foreign agents of influence aka levon and raffi, running around the country trying to stir up trouble. Nor would Armenians enjoy freedom of speech. Armenia is one of the most stable and free of the post-Soviet states. And we need political evolution, not a western backed revolution!

“Erkir Media” TV, in Armenia, showed March 11, 2011 Azerbaijan opposition rally in Baku, the police there outnumbered the demonstrators. Hundreds of policemen have been busy with beating and kicking demonstrators into the police cars to deliver them police stations.

Ilham demonstrated his typical Sultan’s behavior. It is impossible to compare levels of democracy in Azerbaijan and Armenia, we are in a very preferable situation!

Yep! So next time you hear an Armenian claim there are no freedoms in Armenia or that Serj is a dictator, smack them!
