You say you want a revolution in the Middle East?

Developments in Tunisia, Lebanon and Egypt have each been of tremendous importance. If Muslim Brotherhood ideology continues to spread throughout the region, it could be a historical turning point that will greatly intensify Islamist terror and attacks on the West.
Except the Tunisian revolution wasn't instigated by the Muslim Brotherhood, the trouble in Lebanon is being created by Iran and their puppets Syria and Hezbollah, and the Brotherhood has been neutered in Egypt. Other than that the theory is grand.

#3  So-called "Revolutions" will be hijacked by the mad mullahs - and will not lead to peaceful Swiss-style nations. Iran smiles in the background.

#2  Personally Karl, I think the moderates and the sane of the Moslem faith have let the looneys and the nutjobs highjack the faith. The entire region could go up in flames.

I wonder if there is some odd parallel to the way that Russia and the Warsaw pact fell when Poland went south on them. Perchance Saudi Arabia and Kuwait are next?

James, you may be on to something, I am not sure yet if its a good thing or a bad thing but hopefully these tinhat nut job dictators and street wackos masquerading as holy men will get their just desserts and be cashiered once and for all.

It might be a nice time to send some of our clock and dagger guys in to make sure some of the troublemakers have an unfortunate accident.
