The Legitimacy: Regime or Government?

Published on 11 December 2014, by M. Tomazy.

Have you ever noticed that the governments which are NOT pro-Western are named "regimes" such as:

• Putin's (or Russian) regime.
• Chinese regime.
• North Korean regime.
• Iranian regime.
• Saddam's regime (former and toppled by the Western alliance).
• Gaddafi regime (former and toppled by the Western alliance).
• Syrian regime.
• Cuba's regime.

BUT: the pro-Western governments are named "governments" by the main-stream media, even though they are tyrant and totalitarian.

• Saudi government.
• Ukrainian government (current one, although eastern Ukrainian citizens did not participate in the last elections).
• Bahraini government.
• Qatari government.
• Moroccan government.
• Israeli CABINET.
