Curioso's Jouranals

Since becoming a president , Mr Sarkozy proved to be an unconventional president. He not only lacks the physical similarity with his predecessors, Miteran and Shirac and others , who were mostly signified by their heavy weight style to run France , but he believes also to have an assignment by the French people ,,, ( although they are deeply unconscious about this new mandate granted to their president by them !!) to create the changes. However Mr Sarkozy might not be aware of one fact that his becoming a president , the leader of a great nation which has a deep impact on the political trend of Europe and the world to some extent , has not been a single, individual event at all. 

After the cold war's termination of the two super power system , now it is almost one decade past , we are witnessing the same procedure of people being elected ,,with the same character and style of Mr Sarkozy ,,, in short people with no character in almost all the powerful European countries, except Germany ofcourse. You have the types like Berlusconi in Italy ,,, England's previous prime minister Blair, Swedish cabinet of the half educated and skilled people with no style at all and several of these kinds in the Eastern Eueopean countries as well.

Simply a repeating phenomenon for a Europe with no anchored political stand which would be easily interpreted as opportunistic "characters on power" looking for a style, while they fill the high official posts. The European World is becoming more and more "George Bushed" with superficial so called pragmatic types that mostly dont know where they stand! 

My Sarkozy however has a "style " for his own,,, he is the closest type of a European President to his idol type President George Bush. In other words , he desires as well to remain in the history,,,, in fact every one of them desire the same,,, either by their personal and private scandalized lives , or their way to run their countries , not even enough to that ,, by creating the international treaties around the Mediterranean Sea as well , just to mention an example.  

The idea itself is by no means a bad idea, however the perspective of this new treaty is not even close to be a real treaty some day. Some believe that Mr Sarkozy's initiative is only a face lifting for Mr George to activate the peace process between the arch foes of the Eastern corner of Mediterranean sea such as Syria , Israel and Lebanon. After all ,,France believes that it has special role to play in Lebanon due to its colonial long lasting influence in the country or whatever it is. The same goes for Syria ,, or a bit further away from a French influence,,,,, to Israel. The idea was to bring about the subjects of another "conflict map" into a new map and hence to ignore their long lasting intermediate conflicts stemming from another compounds of conflicts. 

  If this would work or not , it is the matter for future to judge,, but missing the fundamental differences even between these three countries,, Israel, Lebanon and Syria, the way they have inherited their share of the cold war's super powers influences,, would leave a tiny choice for Mr Sarkozy to claim any long lasting victory in this arena. Besides it has come to everyone's knowledge these days that President Bush's easing up policies in the Middle East , either talking gestures with arch foes such as Iran , or paving the way for a new cooperation between Israel and Palestinians to solve their problems , is only a part of a diplomatic gesture before his mandate for presidency is out. However no one blames Mr Sarkozy of taking advantage of this relapse in the U.S's "tension making" policies between and among the states in the Western corner of Mediterranean Sea or the Western front of a deeper conflict in the so called "Islamic World" 

 Dissimilarities among these mostly Arab and Jewish states are so intensive and deep that no one even Mr Sarkozy with his relaxed style of seeking opportunities can deny that. They can never be equalized with their European counterparts in this treaty or any other one, simply because European Mediterranean countries more or less  already are gathered in another treaty Organization called European Union,,, this means their similarities had been much deeper than their dissimilarities long before E.U was formed. the same pattern would not be applied on the other corners of this Sea although Mr Sarkozy intends to see it this way.
