WERE THE IRAQI ELECTIONS
MORE DEMOCRATIC?

"The Iraqi elections were much more democratic than the Armenian elections were, - the secretary of "Justice" fraction Viktor Dallakian thinks, - as there weren't wet stamps, open envelopes, as the policemen didn't rig the elections in favor of the authority candidate."

LET'S SELECT
A PLEASANT COLOR

The rose revolution in Georgia, then the orange revolution in the Ukraine and now the sky blue revolution is preparing in Kazakhstan. The most serious collision between the authorities and opposition took place in Alma- last week. The Police dispersed the demonstrators of the "Democratic elections of Kazakhstan" /DEK/forbidden party which was formed by EU and OSCE assistance from the beginning of last year. The demonstrators appeared with sky blue flags. Five participants of the opposition were sentenced to 5-7 days of freedom. Earlier the court decreed that the DEK undermined the state security with its claims on rigged elections of the parliament that took place in September. The experts also think that the project "Ukraine-2005" which is dangerous for Russia may take place in Moldova. Though the color of the Moldavian probable revolution hasn't been fixed yet but the parliamentary elections have all chances to become the copy of Kiev events. In opinion of the same experts other point of exertion is Kirghizstan , another is Armenia which political situation is marked unstable. Even Jirinivosky predicted some days ago that the current "orange cock" would be brought to Armenia.
This means it is the vital time to select the color of our revolution while our brother republics have not selected the most pleasant colors. Unless it can be turned out the most proper colors of the revolution - yellow, blue, violet - will select smarter nations. And while we become fully ripe it will turn out that we must realize revolution under either red or brown flags. Or perhaps under red-brown. Besides these colors green also can be free, God forbid! Red and brown aren't less awful, though, as our elite /both authority and opposition/ is just gray-red. But it may turn out that this cunning strategy will turn for unexpected both for that elite and for our nation, which will have to be satisfied with the less esthetic color.
