The trend in the Middle East might have been delayed two decades after the collapse of the Soviet Union, but it must not be separated from the same underlying causes: political corruption, population overgrowth, scarcity of natural resources, and the modern means of high speed communication.
Egypt fell when Sadat sensed the pending collapse of the Soviet Union in 1971. Sadat kicked out the Russian military experts from Egypt. But, instead of building strong national economy, Sadat resorted to marijuana smoking, embarked on vulgar and abrasive onslaught on his opponents. Mubarak's miraculous escape from two assassination attempts compounded the misery of 80 million people who have to count on a strike of luck to rid of Mubarak's tyranny.
While the USA and Israel indulged into their nuclear defense strategies, the Arab dictators feasted on their blood and bread of their governed population. The dismal economic milieu created fanatic young people seeking radical change. On the Arabian Gulf, the Shitte Moslims grabbed Iraq, now Barhreen. The Suadi Kindgom is not far from the Tsunami of widespread poverty and anger.
The Pyramids are targets for tourists and terrorists, national pride and religious sore wound. The poor and hungry could not tolerate the monstrous outlook on the gigantic piles of rock that served nothing but the ego of the dead Pharaoh.
Mubarak's ego was only crushed by senility, public outrage, and American inconsistent foreign policy.
The big thugs got away. The little thugs git caught.
Al-Ahram speaks kisses up to who ever could lead, with Mubarak yesterday, with the people, today.
Google's Facebook hero.
The dream of home, sweet home, is the only hope left after Mubarak's fall.
Libya? No one ever thought that the Libyian people have the guts to stand tall. Qaddaif's senility might lend Hope.

The Aqsa Mosque another sore wound of the violation of the Holy land by the Zionist occupation of Palestine. The land that could not support its own people is now occupied by by hostile and well armed predictor. Israel is repeating the same mistake of inflating its population beyond the its resources.
