It is not surprising that a majority of the people in the middle east region are poor. The rates of poverty is increasing year after year without a hope that what the governments claimed results of reforms is going to be gained soonly. Poverty is directly connected to lack of democracy. It is a balanced equation, poverty equals dictatorship . Without a well educated people and full stomach people , we will not see any real democracy. In that case , Democracy will be a kind of profounding the traditional rulers who used to rule without any kind of accounting. The big question now and the most serious is : are we able to create a democracy with this high rate of poverty? You can say easily that any democracy with the poverty is temporary and is very limited.
