The recent situations in the MENA region has had me wondering. What has happened to all the cotrrupt leaders from volume 1? Many of us remember the riots in Thailand where the Thai protested their leader's existence in power to the point where they collected pints and pints of blood that they would throw on their leader's house to symbolize that the blood of the Thai people was on their leader's hands. It was a very powerful statement and, though the protests were covered by major media news organizations, the coverage that was so high followed Sir Isaac Newton's law and went back down. Unfortunately the lack of media. Was followed by a lack of public interest. Social movementsN especially with oppressive governments, need the backing of the human race. In case you were wondering, the people of Thailand are still protesting their government.
The situation is the same with Italy's Berlusconi. The public first protested Berlusconi's austerity measures which were cutting into their pensions and other benefits. This was, of course, before it surfaced that he had a love affair with a 17 year old prostitute. Around the same time, his wife divorced him citing that she doesn't "socialize with pedophiles." Hmmm well that's embarassing (lol) and funny as all hell,as because delusional as Mr. Berlusconi is, he's still in power and facing the same protests almost a year later.
