I found this political cartoon http://safia33.wordpress.com/category/media-writing/. It is an easy way to see the domino effect that is happening. First Egypt marched out and within two weeks the former president Mubarak was thrown out. Then Libya was the next country to crave democracy after witnessing Egypt getting what they yearned for. Oil free Syria was next to be bitten by the democratic bug. Mr. Kofi Annan is seen in the comic wanting to talk about this change because of his proposed peace plan that was backed by the UN. Do you think this domino effect would have occurred if the Egyptians didn’t gain democracy?
