”The Arab Revolutions”


seem to have started, and who knows how they will end? If you look back in time revolutions like these seem to happen in clusters: 1789, 1848, 1870, 1917, 2011. If they have succeeded or not is another question.

The surge of uprisings is not easy to stop (see http://english.aljazeera.net/indepth/opinion/2011/03/2011317269573443.html). The fear of what is happening makes even the leaders of Communist China afraid – they evidently know that their time as ”helmsmen” of China is limited.

Personally I think that even the leaders of so-called democracies anywhere in the world should start thinking about what they are doing when they are in power.
