I would like to congratulate the Time people of the year. The protestors in Egypt, Libya, and Tunisia fought dicators and won. The protestors in Yemen, Bairain, and Syria continue to fight. All of them have fought a brutal, bloody, and dictatorial establishment where freedom was suppressed and youth unemployment ran up to 40-50%. They fought against a government that was supposed to protect them but instead bombed them. I am proud of them for what they had to stand up against. Now what has OWS done lately?

They put a giant spotlight on the issues of crony capitalism, outrageous income inequality, and the highest concentration of wealth in modern times. Before OWS, these issues were never considered in such detail by so many people worldwide.

Thats what.

Yes, they have also killed Christians and burned churches. What progressivism!
