something in the Air of the Middle East

Really there is something in the air you can feel ,whether you live in Beirut or Cairo ,Tunisia or even Lybia ,something tells me it will be one of a summer in the Arab World

It Started with Lebanon with the assisnation of Mr,Rafik El-Hariri and the people 's anger and voice were erupted like a big silent volcano ,unexpected one ,then like a chain reaction in the major big arabic cities it began to take place in the political life whether directly or undirectly

From my Beloved Crowded Cairo ,Protests began in February in order to Change the Consitution of 1971 concerning the presidential elections ended in last days of February with a small yet remarkable change in the Consitution pernittibg for the first time in the valley of the Nile , a free election with different candidates , a good sign but not enough if it isn't really a silly play by the Egyptian regime to absurb the public and external pressure for change
Last week I joined a yahoo-group talking about the politics and I was surprised about the great awareness that the egyptian people have ,whether old or young .

To the Green Tunisia,the castle of Dictatorship ,folks I think this site along with different other sites are prohibited in this small country ,they have internet censorship just like Syria ,Porn sites are permitted but Politics ,well no ,the internet is so limited ,people are under the rule of the secret services ,no freedom ,if a woman wears a veil ,she won't find a job there ,it is not about Islam more I guess it is about the freedom
what change had happened in Tunisia last week ? well for the first time since very very long time ,protests and strikes happened in The capital ,number was by thousands ,for main issues ,their refusal to Sharon's Visit and the dictatorship in their country ,they want change .

To Lybia ,the great Country of Shekih Omar El-Mokhater ,the leader of Resistence ,this country turned to a prehistoric country because of the mad Gadfi ,I told how mad is he ,you won't believe ,an idiot ruling a country ,not an idiot by mad dictator
now the change is for the first time lybians outside their homeland made a website ,yahoo- group and protests against Gadfi in Europe ,it is small change but it is better than nothing ,Lybia saw alot from Gadfi

As you it is small changes yet the most important and the ones who really can change the Region ruling style are Lebanon and Egypt
Arab People simply got sick from playing the silent viewer who sees everything ,understands everything yet can't comment on the movie
The 1000 mile march begins with a small step
