Official: G8 Steps Up Plans To Aid Arab Spring Economies
2012-05-24
Industrialized nations step up plans to help countries swept up in Arab Spring rebuild their economies through more access to international credit markets, investment
According to Rooters, as of last October, the Arab Spring had cost the countries involved over $55 billion.
Brilliant. Give a bunch of failed countries 'easier access' to credit markets so that they can run up a lot of new debt. What could possibly go wrong?

This is the kind of thinking that gave us Greece, Zimbabwe and Pakistain. Brilliant.
