Edi Rama did the same thing after January 21. Until he came to power after two and a half years, he did not protest any more, having paved the way for power.
Monday's protest has been warned to be violent and long-lasting. I don't know why Berisha's DP has made this commitment in advance, but I fear that this is one of those things that does the government good in one of its darkest hours, when it is not so easy to pass off the confrontation of the highest state officials with justice with jokes.
In politics, some principles are never changeable. When you have your affairs in order as an opposition member and when you have settled your confrontation with the government, you don't need to show any muscle or aggression.
Whoever raises their voices simply has no power. When you start to feel confident about taking power, there's no need to scream. (I don't mean Lapaj.) It's enough to appear different from the government.
Berisha did this in 2005, where after the March 2004 protests until the day he won, he did not protest again, and even declared this. It was clear that he had a plan for power.
Edi Rama did the same thing after January 21. Until he came to power after two and a half years, he did not protest any more, having paved the way for power.
In this particular case, when the government is on its bad days with justice, but not with its electorate, trying to take on something that I fear you do not have the power to do is the only aspirin for the government.
I don't know how true those fundings for the protests against Veliaj by the opposition are, but this is the case that if these government officials don't have any money, they should take it to Berisha, but without using SMS.
The only relief for the government in these times is to make the situation as political as possible and differentiate people according to whether they are with Rama or Berisha, by forcibly eliminating other actors.
The only way for the government to feel safe is to corner them and tell them: now we will take power from them by force. Not only can it not do it, it mobilizes every energy of the government to become a fence against a phenomenon that the socialists themselves are not so keen on becoming the bodyguards of corrupt stories.
The disappearance of colors within the government and within the opposition is the only way for the battle to become black and white between Berisha, who is braying like an old castrated ox, and Rama, who can't wait to see him as a lone actor in front of his building.
It is one of those cases when Berisha's opposition, rather than overthrowing Rama, tries to exploit this situation to eliminate other opposition actors within and outside the DP.
In a way, he can achieve it, but not by overthrowing Rama. Simply, anyone who is upset with Rama and his government will do it again with Rama, and anyone who is upset with Berisha will move away from Berisha even more, producing more despair than hope.
