Obama Honors the Hero of Tunisia, Mohamed Bouazizi

[Marko3801]

bouazizi is a hero to alot of arabs

to think america and russia are trying to say his sacrifice was just a kgb/cia plot

sick

[Z7andersonsilva]

R.I.P Mohamed. It has been a year since your courageous act triggered revolutions in not just Tunisia but in the whole of Arab world. You were the one who finally decided to show the governments that the Arab people had rights. To the highest heavens Insha'Allah.

[tro2a70]

I'll never forget the name Mohamed Bouazizi. Always in our hearts

[rockydepena]

ok i need to make something here clear lol. i have recently returned form living over, and the first thing you will notice is it is not a democracy! it never was and never will be. i dont care what load they tell you on CNN or FOX. i LIVED there. It is even more corrupt than before... why because it is being headed up be the Muslim Brotherhood (WIKIPEDIA IT). they are the political hand and founding fathers of HAMAS. I know despite hamas' friendly appearance they arent that nice.

[Corroncheria]

What a hipocrisy! And nothing being said from the White House about the ongoing revolution in America.

[oaxacaismo]

suck my dick

[onstageagain]

They call it the American Dream, because U have to be asleep to believe it

We traded in a whoremonger for a warmonger & some people think that's progress. One reason the economy is such a mess is this Guy cares far more about keeping his job than about helping U keep Urs.

Politicians, like diapers, should be changed often & for the same reasons!

A billion here, billion there, pretty soon it adds up to real money Obama!

Rosa Park's action led a Nation(US) to change its laws. ouazizi's action started a revolution not only in North Africa,(Sudan-,Tunisia, Libya, Algeria, Egypt,Morocco,Mauritania), but The Middle East(Bahrain, Syria, Yemen,Kuwait,Lebanon,Jordon,Om­an, Saudia Arabia & Iraq). Case in point: Sudan's President Omar Al-Bashir agreeing not to seek another term. and allowing South Sudan to vote for her own independence. King Abdullah of Jordon replacing his entire cabinet & onging stories yet to be told

[lalo6437]

This is sick. This man is a joke, and hypocrital bastard

[777savva]

Obama is clever and decent, I'm starting to respect americans that they made a right vote choice, how gorgeous looking and a wonderful he is

[StillLibya4Libyans]

Don't let them fool ya.......

God blees Malcom X and Bouazizi . R.I.P

[MrNinjaSpartan]

He can't outright call it a dictatorship, it's a slow process but eventually...

[BiHOps]

@BabyIYours what does that mean?

[dan91709]

@BabyIYours There's noting less impressive than a terrorist sympathizer. The avowed mass murderer was in the process of planning and attacking innocent men, women, and children (Muslims, Christians, and Jews) around the world. He was justly stopped by reasonable and legal means - in accordance with both US and International law. That's why why no serious person objects to the means exercised to stop the murderer.

[dan91709]

This isn't one of his best speeches. Sorry, but when one is so filled with despair that there's no recourse but to kill one's self, it's sad. The injustice may make people angry, and that can motivate change, but heroic? Not at all. It's just sad.

[rockydepena]

did he really just group that guy in with rosa parks???

[TheDailyConversation]

@rockydepena He's just trying to relate it to the struggle Americans went through in recent decades. I think it's a fair comparison. Why don't you?

[rockydepena]

@TheDailyConversation rosa parks, an american icon and hero, did not kill herself. what rosa parks did was selfless and in the interest of blacks. Mohamed had mother and a sister to help to provide for. He infact had dropped out of school to provide for them and send his sister to school. his actions were selfless until he decided to abandon them entirely unlike rosa parks who simply made a statement without killing herself.

[Napoleon170479]

@rockydepena Though a hero Rosa did not think she was changing history ,in fact she did that because she was tired .

[73geneva]

@rockydepena About making a statement, Bouazizi made the most remarkable statement of his entire life by what he did. No amount of 'statement' would have gotten Ben Ali, Moubarak and Gaddhafi out of power.

[73geneva]

@rockydepena Mohammed Bouazizi will be grouped in, not only with the likes of Rosa Parks, but Mandela as well. Men will talk about him for centuries to come.

[0engima0]

@rockydepena and what's wrong with that..

[simply2ghetto]

Obama Honors the Hero of Tunisia, Mohamed Bouazizi... but still sucks the dick of Saudi Dictators... fucking hypocrite.

[TheDailyConversation]

@simply2ghetto Change in Saudi Arabia is happening more slowly. You know he can't go around calling for regime change in Saudi Arabia, think about what that would do to oil prices around the world.

[simply2ghetto]

@TheDailyConversation

That's such a shit argument I don't know where to start. Saudi Arabia is possibly the most backward country in the world. There is no change happening in Saudi Arabia. Demonstrations are illegal. Women have literally NO rights.

So let me get this straight... the brutalization of Saudi people is justified because of a short spike in the price of oil?

I know you guys like Obama but he has totally fucked up his campaign promises.

[freedomwolve]

@simply2ghetto obama also supported dictators in tunisia and egypt then when the tunisians and egyptians kicked their dictators out he pretended to have always supported the people. obama is a big deceiver don't listen to anything he says.

[GishabrunLOB]

@TheDailyConversation The US gets most of its oil from itself. It doesn't need Saudi Arabia.

[pendanski]

@simply2ghetto saudi dictators suck his dick.
