Will Algeria be the next domino to fall in the Arab Spring?

Question

I think so. It borders Tunisia and Libya (both countries with democratic uprisings), it has its classic autocrat who won a rigged election (Abdelaziz Bouteflika), it has the same high unemployment and youth resentment, etc. etc.

Answer 1

Favorite Answer

The whole world wants democracy.

Notice that none of them want Republicacy.

Answer 2

Sounds more like an Arab Sting operation to me.

Answer 3

Hopefully the entire middle-east will be in the hands of democratic govts very soon.

The ONE problem that is endemic there, save Israel, is that who knows what will happen with the new regimes.

They could be just as corrupt as the ones they replaced. That also is endemic there - gawd help them all.

Answer 4

The 6th?

Answer 5

There is nothing Democratic about those revolts.
