I don't fully understand the politics behind these things, do not fully grasp what each new development portends. All I can say is--with the dissolving of political structure and boundaries in those countries, it is no wonder that it takes the people awhile to snap into reality and make things happen. Many are confused, holding on to tradition and what is safe and familiar while desperately longing for change of some sort. The fact that the U.S. is forcing that change in leaps and bounds does not make it easier...it think it just makes things more confusing to know what you're fighting for, what your focus truly is, and who your friends are. Why the U.S. government is not working harder at solving our country's own dilemmas is the question of the century. One day, it may be the U.S.A. whose boundaries are dissolved and whose structure gets a makeover. When that happens, I only hope WE will be able to focus and to live and die for those freedoms we so often take for granted. Yes, chaos is abundant in The Middle East.
