Corruption as a cause of the Arab Spring
@Bobfrombrockley: do you think that this analysis piece in the NYT would be a suitable replacement for Counterpunch? A quick search also found this piece on the BBC. Neither mention Wikileaks and I don't feel that the article needs to unless other RSs explicitly draw the connection. Best, Wham2001 (talk) 17:14, 2 January 2022 (UTC)
- Wham2001 Those both looks excellent. Quick search found this possibly for Wikileaks: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2011/may/13/amnesty-international-wikileaks-arab-spring ? BobFromBrockley (talk) 17:18, 2 January 2022 (UTC)
- Yes, that looks good to me. It could be attributed to AI, though I don't have a strong feeling as to whether that's necessary. Best, Wham2001 (talk) 17:46, 2 January 2022 (UTC)
major events order
That should be chronological, not alphabetical. Tunisia should be the first thing listed IMO. Any objections to modifying the order? nableezy - 02:33, 29 January 2022 (UTC)
- My order would Tunisia, Egypt, Syria, Libya, Yemen, Bahrain, UAE and Saudi (Saudi should be expanded from 2011–2012 Saudi Arabian protests). nableezy - 02:36, 29 January 2022 (UTC)
