On Aug. 20, the Monitor published a commentary from writer and activist Ayaan Hirsi Ali. “So much for the Arab Spring,” she begins, and then takes a hard look at the turmoil in Egypt, which is “back to a ‘temporary’ martial law that will probably last for years.”
But, she says: “I am not quite so pessimistic as to expect a complete restoration of the old order. The Arab Spring may appear to have failed, but in many important respects the Arab world has been changed irrevocably.” She foresees that the ongoing “collision between the region’s traditional divisions and these new and disruptive trends will be anything but peaceful,” but that “[a]ll we can say with any certainty is that there can be no return to the old days.”
In light of Ms. Ali’s views and recent events in the Middle East, we asked our readers : “Do you think the Arab Spring has failed?” We’ve grouped some of their excerpted responses into three categories: “Doesn’t look good,” “Not yet,” and “What about the US?”
