Arab Spring or Islamist Winter? | World Affairs Journal - 1 views
-
will bring their respective countries out of the long Arab winter of authoritarian rule
-
Arab winter..? So it should be called the Arab winter? not Arab spring? And why should each one of them bring itself out? why shouldn't they come together and help together as a one union..as all ARABS?
-
Well, think about the qualities of winter vs. spring. How does Western culture view Eastern culture? How does this word choice impact Westerners' perceptions?
-
Well, as what you have told me, Arabs used to be in winter where everything is dead and when spring comes in-which refers to revolutions- Arabs will come back to life. This might be true in a way. Arabs were muted by their leaders, but they actually never died, because if they have ever died, then they wouldn't have protested against those leaders. YOLO. Arabs were just patients and they knew that revolutions might be worst...there's an arabic proverb that says: Never change your old neighbor, because the new one is going to be worst. Arabs thought about it that way, but their patient came to an end and they started thier thing.

The only things these countries have in common with each other is that they’re in turmoil and that they are Arab.

. Egypt is an ancient and crushingly poor nation ruled, as it has been more often than not, by a military dictatorship. Libya under Muammar el-Qaddafi was an oil-rich dungeon state that had more in common with North Korea and the former Soviet Union than with its neighbors. Syria, meanwhile, unlike any place in North Africa, is a sectarian tinderbox with the potential to Lebanonize or to Iraqify almost immediately upon the overthrow of the state.
-
These nations differed dramatically from each other before the region-wide upheaval began
-
, so it logically follows that the revolutions themselves, not to mention their conclusions and aftermaths, should also differ dramatically.
-
The Arab Spring isn’t one thing, as the post-Communist revolutions in 1989 more or less were, with local variations in only a couple of places like Romania and Yugoslavia. Here each country and revolution is its own Romania or Yugoslavia, differing significantly from each of the others.

Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846
-
His wife lost a child while living in the White House
-
their wives lost a child in the white house.....so they lost a life in the power building
-
You might consider looking at child mortality (death) rates for those time periods...in Lincoln's day, it was fairly common, but in Kennedy's, it was not. Think about whether or not those statistics relate to this situation.
-

-
He was elected President in 1960
-
He was directly concerned with Civil Rights
-
Kennedy had a secretary named Lincoln who told him not to go to Dallas *2
-
Lincoln was shot in the back of the head in the presence of his wife
-
Kennedy shot in a Lincoln, made by Ford
-
He was shot on a Friday
-
The assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald, was known by three names, comprised of fifteen letters
-
Booth shot Lincoln in a theater and fled to a warehouse *3
-
Oswald was killed before being brought to trial
-
There were theories that Oswald was part of a greater conspiracy
-
Kennedy's successor was Lyndon Johnson, born in 1908
-
1 Note: It is an urban myth that Lincoln had a secretary named Kennedy. There is no record of that.
-
*3 Note: Booth actually fled to a farm and was killed in a tobacco barn. It might be a stretch to call it a warehouse. But two years after his death, Booth's body was temporarily moved to a warehouse. Also, after the assassination, the government closed the Ford Theatre and turned it into a warehouse.
-
Skeptics disagree Some skeptics say that you could take any two famous people and find a number of similar-type coincidences between them. The only problem with that theory is that there really haven't been any listings of such comparisons. And certainly none has been as extensive as the Lincoln-Kennedy similarities.
