Now Who Would Have Guessed that the Arab Spring
#3
RE: Now Who Would Have Guessed that the Arab Spring
I must admit ,the so-called "Arab Spring" has me confused. In my opinion, there is no such thing as a spontaneous revolution of the great unwashed.There is ALWAYS someone pulling the strings

So I ask myself, cui bono? and what has changed for the majority of the population? Not sure yet..


tangent:

I'm also highly suspicious of that woman in Burma. Bourgeois and privileged in one of the poorest nations on earth,she's going to build a better Burma for ordinary people? Yeah right. The woman is a POLITICIAN! I'll believe here claims when I see them. In my my opinion,one needs to be really naive,and/or stupid and/or desperate to believe the promises of any politician .
