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!!!
