After reading Road Walker's post, I am now inclined to change my thinking on Libya. It looks like the Libya movement is not a "democracy" movement. Instead it is a tribal war and an effort to replace one dictator with another. At least that is how it is looking at this moment. No street crowds like we saw in Tunisia and Egypt.

Look at the Bahrain turmoil. It is the age old Shia-Sunni feud and not a "democracy movement." Not sure what is the nature of the turmoil in Yemen either.
