Encyclopedia Dramatica:Article of the Now/August 25, 2013
Last Thursday about two years ago, a series of revolutions swept across the Middle East that were sparked after a fruit vendor named Mohamed Bouazizi became an hero by self immolating with gasoline after the mayor of a town refused to hear him bitch about how a 45 year old female municipal officer confiscated his electronic scales and kicked over his illegal wheelbarrow fruit stand. Mohamed's last words were "How do you expect me to make a living?" before he set himself on fire in the middle of noonday traffic. Since then, several governments have been toppled, though not much can be said since nothing has been accomplished other than Islamists of various levels of fanaticism and hunger for power have taken over numerous countries in the Middle East. The peaceful revolutions have only allowed moderate Muslims to take over through sheer numbers. The violent revolutions, such as Libya, have created situations that have allowed Al Qaeda affiliated groups to essentially take over. However, Bashar Al-Assad being the benevolent ruler decided that his citizens should have two choices in his country's great political discourse: stay at home in support of Assad or get filled with lead.
