Definitely an interesting theory, for sure. I'm mostly interested in seeing how this wave of change is going to affect Arab-Israeli relations. I'm curious to see if more politically moderate governments (as opposed to theocracies and dictatorships) will make for less tension in that region. Regardless of differences in doctrine, I'm certain that most people (Muslim or Jewish) would much rather live in peace than constantly be worried about whose village will get shelled next.
