Hopefully the revolution spreads all throughout the Arab world and we get rid of all our dictators from egypt to saudi arabia i want all those basterds out. Until then those puppets are just targets waiting to be eliminated by the ticking time bomb, which is the arab people!
Well, people have tried already to spark a reveloution in the same way, but haven't been successful yet.Hopefully the revolution spreads all throughout the Arab world and we get rid of all our dictators from egypt to saudi arabia i want all those basterds out.

A lot of dissent in Saudi Arabia is eliminated through insane subsidies and social welfare.[QUOTE="Danm_999"][QUOTE="sosodat"]

Lol Cairo has 7.8 million people in it, Alexandria has like 4.1 million trust me if they wanted a revolution they would have done one, the fear they have is that they dont know where the revolution will take them, if you take a look at iran even though the people wanted a revolution and probably still to this day respect if not honor that revolution they still have alot of problems because of western governments sanctions on what the Iranian people want, its not that the revolution failed its that sanctions can easily change a nations way of thinking so even though iran felt like they got rid of a cruel dictator now they have to deal with the weight of alot of economically powerfull governments

By spark a revolutioni meant a bunch of people tried to set themselves on fireinfront of government buildings, 4 in Algeria, 1 in Egypt.[QUOTE="sosodat"]The chances of regime change in Saudi Arabia at the moment are almost zero. Actually you couldnt be more wrong, the king is basically gonna die soon and there is alot of family infighting on who will be next, and if thats not a problem people in saudi arabia are actually thinking of getting rid of the saud family especially after some of the wikileaks news that shows how hypocritical they are, as long as people are thinking about it they are much closer than you would think, the arab world is very unpredictableHopefully the revolution spreads all throughout the Arab world and we get rid of all our dictators from egypt to saudi arabia i want all those basterds out.

The worse you're going to see is civil war between heirs, not regime change. The resources of the ruling family, and international pressure, would not allow that.
As for your Wikileaks point, most Saudis never heard of the story.
Your not going to see the Saudi royal family go away until the oil money does.
And Sudan is on the brink of a civil war due to recent pushes for democracy. The Arab world is in a major tumult right now and nobody seems to know about it.Theokhoth...or care about it. As long as it's not happening in their country/region, people don't care. (which is sad)
I think it is good that the people threw out Ben Ali. He was just another US supplied dictator.optiow
lol at communism
Funny thing, its also the name of the province in Tunisia it was filmed in.Filming location of the Star Wars Planet "Tatooine".

This caught you of guard today when it's been going on since December...... Does America not have any World news? (Genuine question, is this actually the first many of you have heard of this?)
On topic.... Good on Tunisia.
