تجدد أسوأ أعمال شغب تشهدها بريطانيا منذ عقود لليلة الرابعة على التوالي

So Britain calls it "riots". I guess they are better spin doctors with western mainstream media and public opinion than their Arab counterparts. Riots sound like a bad thing being committed by thugs and criminals. So now the Government and police are the good guys and the people behind these "riots" are the bad guys. Mass arrests and repression are now completely legal and justified. Clearly more subtle and arguably more effective than having your tanks roll into cities as Assad is doing in Syria.

But make no mistake, what is happening in Britain will continue and is no less significant than events in Tunisia, Egypt, Bahrain, Yemen, Libya and Syria. Because the spark that has triggered all this is not political or religious. It's purely socio-economical. The rich are getting richer, the poor are getting poorer and the middle class is being wiped out. High unemployment/under-employement rates, austerity measures, corporate greed, corruption....

.... It's all flavors of the same thing whether it’s happening in the Arab world and in the West.

So let’s call all these things by their true name: “revolution”. This where the current class warefare – which has peaked with the so-called credit crisis (or more accurately soap opera) – has led us to. Sooner or later, the masses will revolt!

I believe the “riots” in Britain continue will not only continue but they will inspire similar “riots” in other Western countries. My guess is watch for similar events to unfold in PIIGS nations particularly Greece and Italy, and perhaps even in the U.S.
