The young generation certainly has not spent its childhood and adolescence in the 1970s-1980s. Although they have heard about that period from girls of the 80s who are now forty- or fifty year-old-mothers. The generation in which I spent my childhood and adolescence was definitely not a rebellious generation. Both the Bible and a Playboy magazine would never have been together on the desk. This generation does not dream of breaking social taboos because it has been released from taboos and therefore does not re-break taboos in order to achieve the right to choose. Since we have been free, we were able to choose and what we have chosen is to be "ordinariness”.
In order to have all what we want to have of the power, wealth and fame, we do not need to depend on the parameter of being "extraordinariness". Even the present dreams and hobbies of the youths in this generation are not the same of young girls and boys of the 80s.
However, if there is a similarity between our generation and the past generations, it is that we're all fighting against the generations before us.
We do not need the boring standards of the 80s to show our freedom. We live in freedom and what we want now is that the society's media center gives enough respect to this choice; to what we are.

Entertainment Industry: The Secure Order
Joining a considerable number of celebrities to mob groups and abetting criminal activities such as women and children trafficking as well as drug trafficking has led to the advent of a strange and unacceptable element into the entertainment industry. According to the reports received, these activities are not committed by the industry members to earn money. For example: an Oscar nominated actor assisting the women and children trafficking has not certainly been due to the economic gain but the goal of access to the services of a mob group such as the violence lever; a lever that allows its holder to use it against his/her competitors.
Homicide (which is often remains hidden under the titles such as overdose, suicide, etc.), sexual assault, frequent threats (sometimes even lead to the suicide of the victim), the disclosure of personal life information, creating criminal (judicial) traps against the victims such as the availability to have sex with persons who have not attained the legal age are the ways through which not only the established order of the competition arena of the entertainment industry becomes disturbed but sometimes it would deter the industry from launching and commissioning projects as well.
There is no doubt that two or more governments are not acceptable in any territory at a same time. The entertainment industry would not be an exception from this reality so far. Two or more distinct power base which have access to the leverages of violence and information would not be accepted and would not be allowed.
In this regard, in the first phase, following and prosecuting those criminal activities of mob groups that pass through the entertainment industry channel will be to raise the risk of using the members of the industry (in these activities) and in the next phases, this process will be completed as a result of identifying dangerous elements of the industry and limiting them by coding all their activities.

ISIS: A Note
The dust of congress has rule but not after the books are closed. While many supporters of ISIS in the Middle East and Europe have stopped (actual) supporting this terrorist group, it was expected their partners in the U.S. to do the same. But unlike them, these Americans added to their supports of ISIS.
There is no doubt that ISIS is a defunct player but a few old men who are already excluded from the cadre of power, want to take revenge on Washington and London through ISIS.
What could the recent video of murdering a Scottish victim by the terrorist group of ISIS in a very close time to the independence referendum of Scotland mean?
It is clear that the only implication that the video might have had for the Scottish people in the Britain, is that, the foreign policy of the UK in the fight against ISIS may lead to the death of the Scots. Therefore the independence of Scotland from the UK would be a better option.
Those who had been eliminated from the cadre of power were given a rating so far and it was the resist against the disclosure of the documents that could destroy the reputation they had earned over the decades. Therefore, continuing such a revengeful behavior will definitely cause the loss of the points that have not legally and morally been their rights.
But if they insist on backing up ISIS despite all of these, so it's necessary for them to do a brief search about Ali's status; the 55 years old Iraqi man, who is still living in Iraq, very wealthy, dangerous and one of the most important agents of Saudi Arabia.
Today none of wealth, circle of friends or even his background could save him from the deadlock and terror.

The Issue of Islam: What Are Muslims Looking For?
Islam as a religion, thought or ideology, is not regarded in any way as an issue unless it is only the provider of the private life standards of Muslims. But the concerns begin when a minority of the population of the Muslims wants to use Islam as a pattern to regulate the objectives, standards and their public lifestyle. The cause of these concerns is that the groups which have attempted to provide a public lifestyle (social - political) model of Islam are usually considered as extremist groups.
ISIS, Hezbollah and the Taliban, are among the groups that have attempted to provide a social and political model of Islam.
It is clear that the models of the moderate Islam are presented in countries such as Turkey and Indonesia. But all the moderate models that have been presented for Islam are only limited to the private lives of individuals. Whereas a minority of Muslims (which the numbers are not low) are always are looking for a model of Islam to encompass the whole of their private and public lives. Certainly, if no one provides them a moderate version of Islam for the public lifestyle, they will consequently join groups such as Hezbollah, ISIS and etc.
An issue similar to this was during the Cold War, entitled as "the issue of Marxism". European and American Marxists had to search for Marxism in Soviet and China and thus the fate of their political orientation leads to any of these two countries, and thus the threat begins at this stage. Whereas if the West, like Lenin or Mao was attempting to formulate a theory for Marxism, probably a large part of European and American political interest was not growing towards China or the Soviet Union.
It should not be forgotten that most of the Marxist movements in the 1960s in Europe and mostly in France, were politically tending towards China. It certainly was not because they were preferring Maoism to Leninism, but rather was because even they themselves were searching for an ideological base except of Moscow.

ISIS: The report of the changes in the strategists' cadre
Following the identification of communication channels of ISIS and the failure of this group to realize the goals that they were appointed to, led ISIS to be known as a burned player. There is no doubt that the leader of ISIS is also aware of the end of its mission in Iraq. Because the two recent videos of murdering American journalists contain a secret threatening signal that is send to its own strategist. And all these mean that ISIS is ready to fight against its main strategists, who are now ISIS enemies, to survive.
Recent reports indicate that ISIS's separation from its strategist's team and also the interest of this militia group to join the Taliban.
Obviously, ISIS has largely lost its financial, informational and scientific power (including modern strategies and tactics of war) and joining the Taliban is considered as the predictability of the strategies of this terrorist group. So it can be argued that the possibility of restraining ISIS is available.
However, although we may not use the term "certainty", but it seems that the former friends of ISIS who have now become enemies of it have revealed their own cooperation in fight against ISIS. Therefore, as if they could present a game for ISIS and try to prevent them from joining the Taliban through providing false information, supplying poor strategies and even preparing (new) spurious targets for its leader, it can be predicted that ISIS has the potential to be eliminated completely.

Ukraine: The Crisis Diplomacy Performance
Political and military options that Russia chose in the 2008 Russo-Georgian War, provided the ability to predict the Russian choices in the Ukraine's crisis for the other parties.The two options of recognizing the result of the referendum in East Ukraine as well as the option of entering Russian forces to the territories occupied by the pro-Russian militants were available after recognizing the independence of Donetsk and Luhansk by Moscow. Both of these options were implemented on Georgia, and Russia has been able to skillfully separate Abkhazia and South Ossetia from Georgia. But now, as the leader of the militants in East Ukraine is not calling for the secession from the territory of Ukraine, it can be concluded that Moscow has entirely lost its chance to recognize the independence of Donetsk and Luhansk and therefore any entrance of Russian military to this area means the same as military aggression against Ukraine.
But what changed the result of the game in Ukraine has probably been the priority of the issue of Syria for Moscow. Since the Presidential elections in Syria was taking place in a close distance to the referendum in East Ukraine, the possibility of forming a deal with Russia over the Syria was create at that point of time.
The deal was simple: military branch of the opponents of Bashar al-Assad leave the city of Homs and in return Russia stops supporting the pro-Russians militants.
At first, the opponents of Bashar al-Assad left Homs and John Kerry rejected the leader of Bashar al-Assad's opponents request to send weapons to them, and then the Russian military forces withdrew from the Ukraine borders and Vladimir Putin urged the East Ukrainian separatists to delay the referendum.
But about the destiny of gambling on Syria, we must admit that the White House has been the hidden winner of the game. Lack of reaction by Damascus on the recent Israel-Gaza conflict and even the lack of Bashar al-Assad's verbal support for Gaza despite his former anti-Israel stances and despite supports of Iran and Hezbollah in the Syrian Civil War in favor of Bashar al-Assad indicate that new Syria is created.

Ukraine's Issue: Ceasefire and Political Credibility of the West
Certainly, the number of people who were in favor of the truce in Ukraine were almost equal to the number of those who were in favor of continuing the conflicts in the country. European and American supporters of continuing the conflicts were often those who wanted to continue conflicts against the Russia through continuing the disaster in Ukraine. Probably a similar reason to this logic in Russia causes the continuous supports of Moscow for the pro-Russians in East Ukraine.
However, even if we want to look at this case in a pure mechanical way we notice that there are obstacles on using the Civil War as a way to fight against Russia. And the most important barrier is Kiev. Since the West is involved in Ukraine's issue, therefore we must admit that a part of the West's political credibility is now in the possession of the decisions by Kiev. Incorrect decisions by Kiev not only will lead the failure of Ukraine but also the elimination of a part of the West's political credibility.
Kiev has certainly the chance to achieve good advantages as the result of a secret deal with Moscow and finally will bring peace to the country by giving special privileges to Donetsk and Luhansk.
Who will lose in such a deal except the West?!
But the real threat is revealed when Kiev blackmails the West. In other words, by having such an opportunity, Ukraine can decide to persuade the West to gain some especial privileges.
So, as if the West is following to keep tensions with Russia like that of Moscow which is looking for something like this, it is necessary to give no major role to Kiev, in the conflict, in order to guarantee the preservation of the political credibility of the West.
