Derechos Humanos en los Paises Árabes/ HUMAN RIGHTS IN THE ARAB WORLD
Los acontecimientos que se producen en los países árabes son síntoma de varias circunstancias. Por una parte, de la juventud de la población. Seis de cada diez tiene menos de treinta años. Son jóvenes que no se conforman con su situación de desempleo y no quieren emigrar. Están familiarizados con los nuevos modos de comunicación y sus ideas se propagan rápidamente. Protestan y están dispuestos incluso a perder la vida.Las dictaduras de la zona, protegidas por Occidente en razón principal a nuestro consumo de petróleo, están perdiendo legitimación social y existe una aspiración general por los derechos humanos que SSFI celebra.
What is happening in the Arab countries are a symptom of various circumstances, the main one being the age of their population. Six out of ten have less than thirty years. They are young people who are not satisfied with their situation of unemployment and not want to emigrate. They are familiar with the new modes of communication and their ideas spread quickly. Protest and are even willing to lose his life.
Dictatorships in the area, protected by the West main reason our oil consumption, are losing social standing and there is a general desire for human rights SSFI celebrated.
