The latest argument about the Mideast from those reformed-lefties-turned-Republicans is that the so-called "Arab Spring" was a logical and positive outgrowth of the invasion of Iraq by George H.W. Bush's idiot son.
This is nonsense. Citizens of Muslim nations were rising up and replacing their governments long before the membres of the dreadful Bush family started screwing up the Mideast.
The obvious example is the Iranian revolution of 1979. That didn't work out too well. The liberated iranians took advantage of their newfound freedom to persecute and liquidate followers of minority religions such as Baha'i.
Yet the nutty neocon crowd insists it will be different this time.
