Continuation of trouble

The weeks have rolled by and the is still news of turmoil and demonstrations in the Middle East.  In some locations there is still hope of progress. The Bahrain's crown prince did announce that there were plans to meet with the opposition. Of course, just because the two sides meet, does not say that anything will be down about it.

Libya's situation is not improving much; with little change expected in the near future. The violent repression of protest lead to its removal from the UN's human rights council. The situation inside Libya is also affecting its neighbors. Refugees are pouring out of Libya and into Egypt and Tunisia. If the people are leaving, it reflects on back on the faith they have for their country.
