Practically nine months after Tunisia’s President Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali was ousted after 23 years of authoritarian rule and the Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak was thrown out of power by a few weeks of protests in Tahrir Square, Qaddafi is at the end of his reign after 42 years of dictatorship>>>

Why the rout of Gadhafi undermines the idea of American exceptionalism

28-Aug-2011 (68 comments)
Should President Obama get credit for the imminent fall of the Moammar Gadhafi regime in Libya? Or should President’s George W. Bush’s neoconservative foreign policy be credited? True to form, Washington has boiled the complex issues surrounding the Libya intervention down to a simplistic question. But it’s a false choice. More than anything, Libya -- and the Arab Spring as a whole -- is showing the limited influence of the United States when compared to the power of the people in the region when they take charge of their own destiny>>>

هرگز کسى در سنى کمتر از من محکوم به تحمل مجازات سنگين يادگيرى نشده است. مامان يک شب درحاليکه اشک پهناى صورتش را پوشانده بود به بابا گفت: "من که ديگه نميدونم چطورى اى تخم جن رو تنبيه کنم، هر بلايى بوده سرش آوردم. اين بچه آدم بشو نيست." معلوم بود که کار بيخ پيدا کرده بود چونکه صبح روز بعد بابا سر کار نرفت تا تکليف مرا يکسره کند و بدين ترتيب مجازات در مورد من اعمال شد>>>
