Social Status manifestation and pursuit of democracy in the middle east

By the arrival of new administration in U.S., newer policies are seemingly implemented in middle eastern part of the world. One can not deny that stakes for maintaining diplomatic, institutional and economic stability in the region are quite high.  Although people of middle east are not content with the presence of western troops on their land, the west continues efforts to foster democratic transformation for their effective governance. Counter-defensive activities on one hand and current economic crisis on the other, the U.S. government may be confronting with one of the most challenging political war of our modern era. On their ongoing peacemaking initiatives, and controlled democratic reforms in the agenda, the government seeks for alternative ways to establish the revival of democracy making process. One of the attempts made is to find allies in the region that will help built a  more stable middle east in which the architecture of security will be redefined. The role of secular yet predominantly muslim states such as Turkey is very critical for the accomplishment of this objective.  Therefore, the heart of the essay aimed  at addressing the significance of some of the motivations, efforts and initiatives that are important to forge a strategy for the stabilization of middle eastern politics as a way of peacebuilding strategy. 

One of the most important, yet debatable, subjective estimate for the success of middle eastern politics is to ascertain the sympathy in eyes of the poor people of the region. This is usually because needy people constitute the majority of the voting population in the elections. However, it is a difficult task to depict a more optimistic picture in the minds of those residents despite the fact that their rulers politically get along with the west and maintain good economic and politic relationships. Recent policies and strategic movements led to undisputable alienations from the poor.  Unfortunately, this aspect of policy making process is never thoroughly realized by the western newspapers nor seen to be a problem. However, as more dissatisfaction aroused the lack of attention for the poor is  re-pronounced in future strategy reports.
