Quick monday morning post

Just how does a dictatorial government crack down when there's nothing left to crack? What, kill everybody except a select few then not trust even them? Syria, Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, and not to forget Iran, Yemen, and Bahrain all going through the throws of revolution. Some further along than others but then one has to stop and ask is anything really changing or is the game the same and only the names have been changed to protect the guilty? Perhaps a state could be set up for former dictators with the assistance of their former stooges and cronies. As I see it this is nothing more than replacing one dictator for another. We've seen this in the past. To dig through the grey matter we've had Hitler, Stalin, Batista, Amine, Pinochet, Noriega and so many more it's hard to count. One rises after another falls but the outcome is the same. Those not following the party line are either incarcerated or liquidated. Then at some point even the trusted few of the inner circle come under scrutiny and the regime begins to fall. Or Herr leader becomes so deranged that he defies logic.

So starting today everyone will be required to wear their underwear on the outside. Hope you changed your drawers this morning.

Just a thought
