A wind of change.

[WShee9]

A wind of change seems to be blowing around North Africa and the Middle East.Whether it is for good or for bad ...who knows....Only time will tell.....

[Count-A-Strong]

Well that's cleared that one up then.

[woofgang]

Its stirring in China too

[WShee9]

Dont see how,count....perhaps you will enlighten me...

[jake-the-peg]

I think count may be wondering what sort of a question that is.

Actually I don't think much is changing.

What happened in Egypt only did so because of the Army's cooperation. Where you don't have that the results of rising up against a dictator are being demonstrated in Lybia as they were before in Iraq and in China.

Dictators only fall when they lose control of their aparatus of power - usually the Army

[Count-A-Strong]

Well you state 'only time will tell' rendering any opinions worthless.

[WShee9]

Oh,well...thats me told then....

I remember the 'wind of change' blowing through Africa. It didn't do much good for Rhodesia. More like an anal eructation.

A wind, Steve? It is a bl--dy hurricane, category 3 at the moment - it will go 5 if there are troubles in Iran, Saudi or Israel gets drawn in and goes for the missile buttons.

Will Syria start to crumble as well? That could be interesting as to the future of Iran.

[bibblebub]

North Korea might be the ultimate test.

I feel it is now my time to emigrate and become a Dictator.

Note to self - open up the Cayman Islands bank account.
