OPTIMISM IN THE MIDDLE EAST IS
HARD TO COME BY!
To say most of the "opinions" published on Al
Jazeera are one sided is somewhat of an overstatement, but this particular
article was nearly palatable.
It's fairly obvious the US has placed a great deal of hope
on being able to work with the Muslim Brotherhood... something I'm not holding my
breath over.
For months now, I have made the point of reminding everyone
the Arab Spring.. Yes I still refer to it as the " Tunisian Virus".. will
not end with the same visions it started with.
The "trend" is for a more non sectarian post
government and I don't see that trend changing
anytime soon.
Hope is a powerful humanistic trait that is all too often the only gift people survive on.
For the people who started the movements in the Middle East
and North Africa , hope is the cornerstone of
their dreams.
The problem is, throughout history, hope has often been the victim of bold aggression!
When the Arab Spring is over, my bet is bold
aggression will win the day.
Hope!! Sometimes that's all we can do!!!
