And it continues but we have yet to gain any understanding as to what will result.

I did hear that Al Quaeda was being thwarted by the anti-gov forces in Libya. What about the muslim brotherhood there?

Once Iran was a power vacuum. Next we get to see who takes the reins; which may or may not be good for our economy.
