We see this repeated so often in tyrannous regimes: whenever the heat gets too hot for them, they just find another enemy outside the sphere of the argument at play, and they deflect all the pressure that the general populace, the average civilian, has with the regime.
In all of this, then—and I know I'm asking for your opinion—after the presidential elections, what is the likelihood that the military is going to step away and allow parliament and the president to operate? It sounds like every aspect of administration and judiciary and policing is basically run by the military. Is there any hope that they're finally going to let parliament work, let the elected president work?
