Arabian Revolution

Summary:
So, basically the revolt is about the people in the arab world revolting against the arabian politicians. The people of the arab world want to rebuild a new order. this revolt has been going on for a few months now and has been occuring mainly in Tunisia. Tunisia is located to the west of egypt. In this article, the people are saying that they don't want to be considered " islamists" anymore but want to seek out democracy and a more tolerant vision.


Opinion:
In my opinion, the people in the arabian world are kind of doing the right thing. I mean there doesn't have to be violence, but they are fighting for what they believe in. I think every country has to go through some kind of revolution or reform before they can be succesful as one. Even then, they will still have problems like our country. I think they should be finding a way to resolve their problems verbally rather than physically. To many people can get hurt for something that can be resolved in a simple way.

EXTRA CREDIT:
The American Revolution is different from the Arabian Revolutions because they aren't fighting to sepereate from another country, they are fighting to settle arguments amongst themselves. They are also different because the Arabian Revolution is about breaking away from a certain reliogion where the American Revolution is about breaking away from a certain set of laws and government. They are both different because one is taking place now in the present and the other took place in the past around the 1700's.
