In the Middle East, that is the only alternative. And the people seem quite happy about it.

I like the documentaries on the History channel with that Egyptian archeologist with the hat. He was going to have to retire due to age limits with the prior government. Seems they let him continue.

those countries are tribal, the major tribe wins control and that leader has to be brutal to keep the other tribes in line. They won't be democratic

The rebel forces in Libya sent more people to fight Americans in Iraq than any country besides Saudi Arabia - basically an arm of Al Qaeda. Egypt's most powerful political group post-revolution is the Muslim Brotherhood, which is sworn to destroy the West in their charter. If the Syrian revolution is successful, it will also be Muslim Brotherhood controlled. Then we have Hezbollah in control of Lebanon. Hamas in control of the Pal territories. Ahamdinejad and the wacky mullahs in charge of Iran. More radical Muslims trying to take over Pakistan. What clusterf$%^!
