Whoa! Egypt, Syria Stun World by Unplugging from the Web...
 

YNOT ? The internet went dark in Egypt at about 30 minutes after midnight Friday as the government attempted to quell violent protests demanding the ouster of President Hosni Mubarak.

According to early reports from Al Arabiya, Syria quickly followed suit, completing a partial shutdown government officials engineered Wednesday after a coup allegedly backed by Al-Jazeera overthrew Tunisian President Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali. Some Middle Eastern media reported Ben Ali?s ouster resulted from his close ties to the West, but government-controlled Syrian media on Friday laid the blame on unrest over prices, unemployment and state repression.

the protests accelerated.

how did people organize before the internet?

the internet is an illusory freedom. and open air prison.

you should take a bus to xbiz or the forum.
I'll buy your ticket.

you have a counter-argument? or is your brain so drug-addled you can just post funny pictures?

Dude you can't afford a bus ticket to the other side of town... much less to LA. Don't promise what you can't deliver.

fuck off idiot, christ you are a fucking loser

wtf do you think your government would do if there was a coup ??

:1orglaugh

hahaha.

yes, connor. the banner is from around 1999, my receptionist made more than you that year too.
how pathetic........

bad day at the 3rd world fast food window?
welcome home from the day job, my bitter little troll.:1orglaugh

I sort of agree with the whole internet thing. Probably shutting it down makes the people actually go out and do more. When you are on the the internet, you get the false impression people are actually caring about what you do. Clicking "like" on a Facebook page doesn't equal a revolution.

Look at the world we live in now, because of the internet the "truth" is masked by all the constant noise and people who want to hide the truth can spin stories as fast as they come out. Look at Wikileaks, all it did was make Julian Assange famous, it had no effect on anything else. A week passed and everyone just moved on. If those documents were published in a newspaper 30 years ago, it would have had a profound effect.

It's tough for internet fanboys to understand, but the net effect of the internet on society is probably negative at this point.

That was a good year for you, no doubt. Was all downhill after that though. :|

maybe one day Americans will grow balls and get what they want out of their government too

Of course they are. No fast food contacts at shows.

Don't be bitter because you failed where I continue to succeed. Learn from your failures

i wish you would teach me..

if i ever came to show again, its you who would be embarrassed.....

let me let you in on a pretty obvious fact..

Is Israel in panic mode yet?

The Egyptian government is about to fall, probably to be replaced by the Muslim Brotherhood, the parent organization of Hamas. Hezbollah, close to Iran enjoys massive support in Lebanon, even from Christians. Syria is still unfriendly to them. Jordan is on decent terms with Israel but it's filled with mostly Palestinians. The US is becoming Jew wise and any support for an Israeli attack on Iran will be political death.

yeah posted about it in another thread. the floodgates of weapons and supplies are about to be opened to palestine and with hezbollah in control of lebanon a perfect storm is brewing.

revolution in jordan brewing adds to the mix.
