Perhaps, time has come to obtain some answers…
To know who we area, each one of us must decide if we belong to those people, for which one leader threatens the other. Today, the chairman of the opposition threatened the Prime Minister today by saying: You either do this, or I will encourage people to take to the streets and then, you will have nowhere to hide.
But he was not the only one. The problem is very simple: Are we the people that they want to use as scapegoats.
If neither of us feels like a scapegoat, to be used by people in Parliament or the Government, then who are these officials who have taken the liberty to “exploit” people? Perhaps, time has come to find enclaves of specific people and each time a politician needs them, he can go to this enclave and take as many people as he wishes. Or take the interesting minorities, like the Amish or the jungle people in Malaysia. Or if there are enclaves with “white Albanians” and “black Albanians”. Or, if there are enclaves with Albanian born citizens and other categories, then let them exploit these pools.
But these sorts of enclaves do not exist in our country. Then, where do they find these “people” that they use against each other?
Time has come to obtain an answer… Given that neither I, nor you, nor anyone that surrounds us accepts that he belongs to the “people” that are used, then where do they find these people?
And if people are divided into particular categories, according to political persuasions, age, education, tendencies, etc, all of these categories have been exploited. So, which “people” can be used now?
The ones, in the name of whom the chairman of the DP spoke today in Parliament and said that “we will encourage people to take to the streets”, can no longer be exploited. The last time when they were used by the chairman of the Democratic Party was the 90 day period, from 18 February to 19 May 2016. During this time, these exploitable “people” entered a tent in the central boulevard of Tirana. These people, with many personal problems, stayed there night and day and heard speeches of all kinds. The chairman exploited them for his own gains and then abandoned them. Will these people join the tent again?
The other people were exploited in 2011. The opponent, whose turn it was at the time to use scapegoats and seize power, exploited five thousand members of “its” people. Four of them died in the boulevard after they were “used”. The leader who exploited the 2011 category, managed to seize power. Those people can no longer be exploited.
Even the people, who were called in 1990 to overthrow the communist regime, can no longer be used. Those people “no longer exist”. Anti-communism was used as a similar philosophy. Anti-communist governments were penetrated by the most fervent spies and communist of the dictatorship regime.
The current parliamentary group of the Democratic Party includes instructors of the former Labor Party; butchers of dictatorship, sons of butchers, agents of Soros’ left which are harming rightism around us. The victims of communism gathered in front of Parliament on the day when Ruçi was elected as speaker of this institution. The “anti-communists” had sworn that they would not allow the “minister of the dictatorship regime”. But the chairman of the Anti-Communist Movement, Mr. Basha voted in Parliament and then went out to offer a show among the “victims”. In this case, we have the “exploiter” and “the exploited”. But even they can no longer be exploited.
Even the most exploitable category of the Albanian people, those who served during Hoxha’s regime in a long civil war against each other, can no longer be exploited.
All the categories of people have now been exploited. So what have the leaders or “exploiters” been left to exploit now?
So, we either find the “Amish”, “indigenous Malays”, “Alawites”, “Yazidis”, etc, or they should stop threatening that they will use people, because people who live in this country can no longer be exploited. If these threats continue, then this is considered genocide and crime against humanity.
