As of now, this article is basically a conglomerate of relevant political events and occurrences pertaining to each major Middle Eastern country. The nations mentioned by name which have the most information documented about them are the most are the well known Arab countries, the one mentioned in everyday political conversation. With that being said I can see how to someone looking outward at this article from the scope of a view perhaps within the one of these countries or one similar, the authenticity of the information that is offered can be somewhat questionable in validity.

For example, a table which evaluates the freedom Middle Eastern countries have in their political structure and how it extends into daily life is present in this article. If we are to accept this articles conclusions then it is to believed that Qatar, Turkey, Oman and the UAE not only lack civil liberties but enforce a kind of despotism as they are classified as a "not free" regime. There definitely should be more fair comparisons and representation in this regard as three of those four countries leaders aren't contended by citizens.

To be improved, the article must first include more citations from objective sources. It also cannot be biased in how it regards the idea of democracy with being synonymous with "freedom". Based on the disconnect between the actuality of some of these nations and what is written about them, specific sources that encompass life in a specific country of topic should be included in every mention. After improvements are implemented the article ought to look like something that citizens of the Middle East and not just the West could read and concur with.
