Q&A: The future of the Arab Spring?
2011-10-23
Posted by:tipper

#4  I was reading with interest until I got down to the following:

So what happens next? Is there an answer?

IÂ’m very pessimistic about the Arab world. IÂ’m not pessimistic about the Muslim world. I think Indonesia, and Pakistan and Bangladesh, Iran..everyone has a bright future. But not the Arab world.


Indonesia, Pakistan Bangladesh, and Iran; everyone has a bright future. REALLY!

#3  A headline in today's UK Telegraph: Libya's liberation: finally an end to four decades of pain and grief "We as a Muslim nation have taken Islamic sharia as the source of legislation." said the NTC leader, Mustafa Abdul Jalil.
And in a sign of the divisions that may lie ahead, Mr Jalil then pointedly contradicted himself with: "I call on everyone for forgiveness, tolerance and reconciliation. We must get rid of hatred and envy from our souls."
The choice of Sharia guarantees future decades of pain and grief.

#1  FTA: I think there will be far more chaos than Obama can manage. ThereÂ’s nothing there. The Muslim Brotherhood and the Islamists have billions of dollars. ... 20% of the Arab population is black, but you canÂ’t see a single black face. ItÂ’s a completely racist movement. It says non-Arabs in the Arab Spring have no rights. IF youÂ’re [a] Bangladeshi, Filipino, Indonesian [Muslim] Â…you have absolutely no rights.
