Bush
Administration’s plea to Congress for supplemental $75 million in an
exigency spending bill to buoy up U.S. efforts to structure democracy in
Iran was the initial walk in the direction of democratizing that
country. Budget apportioning ( $75m ) aimed at propagating democracy in
Iran was sought after to outline democracy, safeguard human rights and
reform the totalitarian regime’s frail status. Among those considered
meritorious are the oppositional groups and members of ethnic
minorities. The two major Kurdish political groups (KDPI and Komela) are
categorically in rating list, as well.
If the US
were to democratize a country vs. its wishes and devoid of generation
and international consensus on the issue, then the US copes with
serious legitimacy and credibility harms relating its policies.
Democracy is brought about not by imposition. To democratize Iran, we
need to realize three critical factors: the precondition to create an
institutional capacity to undertake such a task, the must for broader
international mutual aid for such an Endeavour and most prominently
the prerequisite to partner with legitimate civil society and
community leaders in those countries to facilitate the creation of
democracies.
Promoting
democracy in Iran would appreciably serve public and strategic US
national interests. Democracies are the best regimes for ensuring
regional stability and equitable prosperity for their citizens. If
Iran were democratized, it would ensure regional stability,
international order as well as individual and national prosperity. At
present, the most critical of all is the willing public opinion
supporting democratization efforts in that country hence, leaving the
baseless regime fully ineffectual to resist. The steadfast and valiant
Iranian masses have expressed their sturdy loathing and disgust to the
ruling totalitarian clerical regime.
Nation states
resembling Syria and Turkey are among those overbearing regimes that
continue to throttle the voices of democracy-loving citizens through
vehemently repressive and abusive authority. The US needs to promote,
fund and support the reformers, political dissidents and human rights
activities in Syria and Turkey striving to chuck out dictatorship and
swap it with liberal democracies.
