Anarchy in the middle east.
So upsetting that our modern day corporate media continues to confuse Anarchy with Chaos. Anarchism is voluntary order, it is a philosophy in which men are free to choose their own destiny, be their own masters, and live a life free of coercion. I applaud the efforts of Egypt, and I only wish that the people of Egypt will embrace Democracy over right-wing Islamic fundamentalism. It is very extraordinary what has happened in the last several months, especially in regards to Julian Assange's "wikileaks" airing the world's dirty laundry, and how internet freedom and social networks are playing a role in liberating oppressive U.S. backed dictatorships. Although there is still some speculation on whether or not wikileaks played a role in the world's most current revolutions, it is still something that is definitely a key player in my opinion in regards to recent middle eastern upheaval. And guess what? American played no militaristic part in the spread of democracy for Southern Sudan, Tunisia or Egypt. Egypt's revolution was a leaderless, peaceful anti-government movement in which people exemplified solidarity and a desire for liberation. Of course, not to dispel truths, there has been violence perpetrated by Mubarek supporters against anti-Mubarek protesters, and it is believed the Egyptian government is using violence in order to destroy opposition. My only hope now lays with the people of Egypt, and through solidarity they will oppose Mubarek and any other form of authoritarian dictatorships and whatever form they might take on.
