For few months now, the Middle East and African have been been thrown into a somewhat leadership cataclysm. It all started like a joke in Tunisia, slowly it crept into Egypt and to Libya and to Oman and to who knows where?
what we are witnessing is no war, it is no chaos, it is no conspiracy as Gaddafi suggested, it is a wake up call. It is a warning to the whole world that no matter how hard you oppress a people, one day, they will put their life on the line and ask to be treated like humans.
'If we must obey per force, why should we obey when there is no force'? or why should we obey when when we get used to force?
what is going on is not a mere political transformation but a scenario similar to the industrial revolution that skyrocketed the fortunes of Europe up to the height it enjoys today. If anyone thinks that it is going to stop soon then the person should have a rethink. It is going to sweep through the countries of Africa and Middle East. It is going to shake the foundations of the entire world and only those who accept peaceful change will have time to tale the story.
The conditions that led to this movement abounds in all African countries and their Middle Eastern counterparts but the consciousness to rise to the occasion is yet to rise in other African and middle- Eastern world and nothing will stop it until the end is justifiably attained.
Until then, let us keep in mind that there are things we can change, change is not one of them, there are other things we can stop, change is not part of them either.
