take a look at Egypt and Libya now, you think thier going democratic? the only thing happening is thier stock markets falling and western powers that are currently in a financial crisis will be able to recover since everything else has gone cheaper. get the picture.
everything has always been economic, its how the world has been shaped since the imperial age. notion of democracy, human rights and open media are some of the tools used effectively and perfected during the cold war. To be loved by the mob is influence and power after all.
Rumors spread by leftists?.... So all the misappropriated money was just imaginary? You can be a capitalist without being a crook you know.
As far as the current changes in Libya are concerned of course the stock market is taking a tumble, that always happens in times of uncertainty. Markets will stabilize once Gadhafi is ousted and industrial stability resumes. Democracy is their right and they (the majority) are bravely fighting for it. Their so called leader even referred to them as dogs and rats. Such arrogance is not unusual for dictators who think they can rule unchallenged for eternity. Maybe you wouldn't mind living in that type of society, sounds like hell to me.
