    I would also add WhatReallyHappened.com to your list. Though not directly out of Arab nations or nationals, Mike Rivero extensively lists articles from DesertPeace et al about Middle Eastern affairs. He is a staunch supporter of the Palestinians, his support evidenced in his written and spoken (WRH radio) commentaries.

    Very god.
    This days has solifyed the “alternativ” news. Another aspect is that people is been aware of the magnitut of the “cover up” of reality.
    I also agree whit those that says this is colimination of events started decades ago.In various countrys aroud the world.
    This is the result of a robbery of common people by the Banks, whit the aproval of the States, and when it crached, we got the bill, and we all are suffering from it.
    (Hellas, Irland, India Caucasus countrys, Portugal a.s.o.)

    You only need to ingredeans to make a worldwide revolution.
    Privatising corp. profit.
    Sosialising corp. losess.

    To me this is more a Paradigme shift, the wakup of The colectiv mind.
    And above all, and it must not be underestemated, they got rid of Fear.
    I cal it a rebirth of a People, the Arab world before Tunis, and the Arab people now, after Egypt fell.
    I am not going to speculate on anything, because anything can happend.
