Conflict which began in Tunisia have spread over the whole Arab world like a wild fire. The basic issue in most of these countries is terrible situation in economy, unemployed that is over the top, etc. However, America seems to be taking completely opposite attitude depending on their relationship with the leader it specific country. For example in Tunisia president Obama said that the demonstrations were audacious act of people fighting for democracy and their rights and liberties, while on the other side political protests in Egypt against Mubarak are completely condemned. Hilary Clinton said that Washington believed the Egyptian government was “stable” and “looking for ways to respond to the legitimate needs and interests of the Egyptian people”.
In some western sites even appeared appeals to post links to news about the demonstrations on their pages to express their solidarity with the residents of Arab countries, protesting against the miserable life. Twitter and Facebook were even banned in Arabic countries because of political massages that were posted on this social networks and spreading of the spirit of revolt among people.
