They've been cracking down especially hard on the protesters in Syria from what I've been seeing and reading.

At this point, I don't even remember which ones 1 and 2 were, specifically. Everyone's joining the party.  :p

(Yes, I know they were probably Tunisia and Egypt, but we could add in a few more if we included places like Bahrain.)

It was Tunisia then Egypt who succeeded first.

I feel like I'm watching  a fairly fast-paced societal rebirth.

You mean before Bahrain was "liberated" by our good and dear friends the Saudi's? :P

The Syrian government is holding one of my high school friends right now. Hope he'll be okay.

We'll see. It's also quite possible that nothing of significance changes.

Never thought I would see this kind of thing.... it's astonishing. Hope it won't lead to more suffering though. Good luck with your friend, GB

Speak for yourself. My whole neighborhood is in an upheaval, and somehow it's still usually my fault. :p
