@DoodiePunk nasser was a great man who envisaged a united arab nation with socialist ideals, the US countered and destroyed it every step of the way with radical islam. Read your history

just a change of guard. this is the second "arab spring" coined byu the west. I believe it was chomsky himself who revived the phrase "demonstration elections". Same old same old. One day the Islamic world will get its act together. The issue, which is totally bypassed here, is Islamic Governance. ANY democratic fair election would see a landslide for the party that promises shariah in ANY arab country. Lets not forget that 80years ago it was the UN MS that carved the lines, named,flagged them.

Worker's collective bargaining rights just ramp up the cost of production and make everything cost more. This is NOT good for the economy.

In order for the Middle Easterners to be truly free, we must first be freed from Arab-nationalism. Nasser, Saddam, Gaddafi, Assad, are examples of Arab-nationalism endorsers :)

It is also frightenning to see that this is all a macrocosm of modern UK politics, bearing in mind that the US took over from the USSR and the UK as the dominant imperialist state early on in the post WWII era.

most middle easterners are not arabs, true.
but tunisians,libyans,syrians,egyp
tians,bahrainis,yemenis are in fact arab. which makes it an arab revolution. only zionists and neo colonialists try so hard to undermine the arab identity.

Do us a favour and don't ever associate yourself with Arabs in anyway.
The Arab identity is an honour and a privilege, not something you sell out when it becomes inconvenient.
1225 viewings of this critical analysis vs. how many millions being brain sodomized by Mainstream Corporate Media Poodle Pimps? Regardless of political orientation, the quality and level of this programming is far beyond MCMPPs wet and soft mediocrity. Share with your friends. Share with your enemies and some will become your friends. Chomsky's reference to Kim Il Sung and Reagan deification was a nice touch. Word sound power.
