    If the Arab Spring results in theocracies which is more and more likely, we in the West will regret ever supporting them. Egypt has been experiencing violence against Christians which has never happened before to my knowledge for example.

    It hasn't hit Theocracy yet, besides its popular revolt so this is to be expect and uhh Egypt has had alot of violence against Christians especially against the Coptic orthodox and the Oriental.

    A couple of executions but all in all the same, where going to the argument on what is going to happen next and if there going to insert Shariah law. Which yeah they most likely will.

    They are all assuming that a theocracy will be declared, which they find less apealing then gaddafi's regime(cant really blame them) we will just have to wait and see.

    Well im thinking something like the Democratically elected Islamic party that won in Tunisia will win in Libya well that is if the tribes of the country can sit down enough to vote and then follow a none power based government under one unified man.

    Not really a big surprise with what happened in Tunisia. It'll probably happen in most other Arab springs countries as well. Like I mentioned several pages back, Libya is rolling in shit and will keep on rolling in it for a long time. Only time will tell if Gaddafi was the lesser of two evils or not.

    if the pole want Sharia to be the basis of their laws so be it, it's what they want. You also can't really blame them the country is 98% Muslim.
