MANY ON THE LEFT AND RIGHT THINK THAT MODERN REVOLUTIONS TO OVER THROW A DESPOT ARE GREAT AND THEY EAGERLY SUPPORT ANY SO-CALLED "PEOPLE'S REVOLT" TO OUST A LONG TIME DICTATOR WITH LITTLE CONCERN ABOUT WHAT WILL FOLLOW THE TYRANT. THE RECENT REVOLUTIONS IN NORTH AFRICA AND IN SOME AREAS IN THE MIDDLE EAST HAVE GARNERED GREAT SUPPORT NOT ONLY AMONG THE MSM, BUT WITH MANY ON THE CONSERVATIVE RIGHT. I WOULD URGE THOSE WHO EAGERLY SUPPORT THESE "PEOPLES REVOLUTIONS" TO TAKE A LOOK AND HISTORY AND REMEMBER THE EUPHORIA OF MANY WHEN HITLER AND MUSSOLINI CAME TO POWER IN THE 1930'S---ALSO WHEN LENIN REPLACED THE CZARS AND THE ISLAMIC RADICALS ASCENDED TO POWER IN IRAN.
WE HAVE THROWN OUR SUPPORT BEHIND THE REVOLUTIONARIES IN LIBYA NOT KNOWING WHO THEY ARE AND WHAT THEIR TRUE MOTIVATION IS. THIS IS NOT WISE AND, IN FACT DANGEROUS.. IT'S TIME TO STEP ABOUT AND NOT RUSH IN AS FOOLS OFTEN DO.
