Revolution in Tunisia. Which Arab country will be next? Egypt?

Kamaavi,

 

I agree with you. I think the days of Zenawi are numbered. But he will be replaces by another Amhara or Tigrey. This has been the case, last millenia's.

CAIRO: Arab leaders have begun taking extraordinary measures in an attempt to avoid widespread public protests like those seen over the past month in Tunisia, leading to the ousting of Tunisian President Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali.Kuwait’s Amir Sheikh Sabah al-Ahmad al-Sabah issued an order that every Kuwaiti citizen be granted 1000 Kuwaiti Dinar (US $3,599), totaling US $4 billion, as well as free basic foodstuffs for citizens carrying a ration card until the end of March 2012.

The grants marked the occasion of the country’s 50th independence anniversary, 20th liberation anniversary and next month’s 5th anniversary of Sheikh Sabah’s assumption of office.

Saudi King Abdullah bin Abdel Aziz vowed to increase his country’s budget to achieve prosperity for the Saudi people. He called on the citizens to have patience, saying the objective was to “take care of any failures we were unaware of in the past.”

Syrian authorities issued instructions to increase subsidized home-heating fuel in an uncharacteristic change of policy reducing subsidized fuel in recent years.

Saudi Arabia Man Dies After Setting Himself on Fire

 

Saudi Arabian officials say a man who doused himself with gasoline and set himself on fire this week has died from his injuries. The incident could be the first case of self-immolation in the kingdom since a similar incident in Tunisia sparked an anti-government uprising.

Government officials said Saturday the unidentified man was in his 60s and lived in the southwestern town of Samta, near the border with Yemen. News reports say he died Friday in a hospital.

A string of self immolations have been reported in countries including Egypt, Algeria and Morocco since an unemployed university graduate in Tunisia set himself on fire in December.

 

The Tunisia incident triggered widespread protests over unemployment, high food prices and government policies and eventually led to the ouster of Tunisia's president. There have been other recent protests in the region, in countries including Yemen, Jordan and Algeria.

Anti and Pro-Government Protests in Yemen

Hundreds of protesters in Yemen have called for an end to the decades-old rule of President Ali Abdullah Saleh.

Students and other protesters gathered inside of Sana'a University Saturday where they chanted anti-government slogans.

The demonstrators were apparently inspired by the recent wave of protests in Tunisia that led to this month's ouster of President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali earlier this month.

 

The French News Agency (AFP) says some Yemeni students carried a banner that read “learn from the Jasmine Revolution,” a reference to the Tunisian uprising. The news agency says other demonstrators rallied in support of the president, Saturday.

This just all the work of mobs of denim jean revolutionaries and what started it all - a man burning himself to death because he was frustrated with life and the government. The deen is clear about the fate of such actions! The man dies in self inflicted Fire and will suffer that same fate in the akhira. SubhanAllah!

 

Look at the mobs of people now, all the bloggers and denim jeans revolutionaries. What is there cries for? It is nothing but a futile cry. If there cause was for the deen, it would be different but then again - would the world give the same support (after all who wants the return of beards, hijabs and the whip (chop chop, slash slash - isn't that the imagery that comes to mind with shariah in society) in muslim societies :rolleyes:

 

Caajib!
