So is Qadhafi responsible for Lockerbie or isn't he? Seems like opinions were different sometime ago. Are citizens across the Arab world protesting by the hundreds of thousands or aren't they? Are most Arab leaders Despots or no? Is thinking that their citizens are reacting to some Machiavellian plot concocted by Western governments and the illegal State of Israel any more helpful than thinking that they are reacting to the Suns recent hyperactivity? Guess, we'll have to wait and see.

I guess its easy to think that people cannot act on their own for their greater good unless they are manipulated by some overlord with a vested interest; if that has been ones only experience. But revolutionaries have been dying in the streets of the 3rd Worlds for decades, so to a 3rd World'r it is the behavior of the 1st Worlds citizens thats remarkable, and not in a good way.
