Democracy in Arabia

                                                                    
The caption to this photograph, from Reuters, in The New York Times, is:

"Tunisian soldiers tried to calm Egyptians fleeing Libya on Monday."

Now, when you have Tunisians, who can't keep Tunisians from fleeing Tunisia, trying to calm Egyptians--about anything--that doesn't seem like it's going to work. And then to have Tunisians trying to calm Fleeing Egyptians, in Lybia...Uh, good luck Tunisian soldiers, keep in touch.
