The Middle East

The disturbances and protests in the Middle East have been a long time coming.  Most goverments in that region are not democratic.  President Bush knew this and he knew what would happen if a democracy/republic can take hold in the region.  It took other events then Iraq to be the match to the fuze.  Maybe or maybe not the wikileaks influenced events.  But now you had events in the last 6 months in Iran, Jordan, Eygpt, Tusinia and Yemen.  These events need to be allowed to happen.  We need to encourage but not influence these changes.

We as Americans must be vocal in our support.  So future generations in these countries may have it better.
