The Saudi Day of Rage
John Hayward, Human Events
Saudi dissidents used Facebook to organize a “Day of Rage” against the ruling monarchy last Friday. The results were, quite understandably, blown of the global media radar screen by events in Japan. How did that “Day of Rage” work out for the dissidents?Not terribly well, it would seem. The turnout was so small that protest leaders told United Press International that the “Day of Rage” had been rescheduled for later in March.
