33. Assad is still in power, so is Ghadaffi - and nothing has changed in Iran

One could argue that there hasn't really been any serious change in Egypt either in terms of who is running the show.

And revolts in Bahrain and elsewhere in the region appear to have not really taken hold.

I'm also not sure that the Fatah-Hamas reconciliation can be attributing to these goings on necessarily either.

Seems more like the last gasp of two parties that are in decline.

Remember that Fatah and Hamas were "unified" less than five years ago and we know how that turned out (or at least some of us do).
