Quote:Former British intelligence chief Sir Richard Dearlove gave a speech not long ago where all recordings were prohibited. During that talk, he credited secrets outlet WikiLeaks with helping spark revolutions across the Middle East, saying they provide a stark example of the ways technology is changing how people relate to their governments.
Unfortunately for Dearlove, someone in the audience was recording, and now the whole world gets to see his formerly restricted speech.
This video was published to YouTube on March 2, 2011.
Following that line of reasoning, it was the US Policies and secrets, and those of the State Department, as well as all the secret machinations now revealed that 'triggered' the revolutions - much as they did to create and maintain/arm/support the dictatorships that are now under threat. Empires and systems of control and exploitation are always built on secrets and lies. Truth always destabilizes them - I can't think of a more commendable aim.
