Voice of youth
The breaking out of public protests, skirmishes with government forces, and mass protests have been a common sight in Libya, Egypt, Syria, and Tunisia. It's the youth of these countries via social networking sites who are leading the revolutions.
IN THE last few months we have come to hear and read about events in Libya, Egypt, and Bahrain. One has become familiar with these names now because these names flash on television screens no matter which time of the day. Be it breakfast, lunch or dinner, some or the other news item is being televised or written about about these countries.
 
But what's happened there? Why are people protesting? These questions come to mind but the answer to all these questions is this that people are fed up with their country’s laws, and want a revolution in their nation. They are protesting against their nation’s problems such as poverty, unemployment, human rights violations, etc.

 
In this revolution a master role was played by the youth in these countries. One can call it “Youth Protest”. The protests showed the whole world that if normal people, especially the youth, want to change the world then they can change it any day.
 
In these countries power and money was in the hands of their dictators, presidents, and kings, and the time had come to change this and shift that power into the hands where it should already have been.
 
First, it stared in Tunisia and then there were uprisings in every nation like Egypt, Libya who wanted revolution in their country, and it brought changes in these countries. The first to fall was Tunisia’s President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali and second was Egyptian President Hosni Mubark. After almost 18 days of daramatic protests at Tahrir Square, the Egyptian people won. Mubarak resigned.
 
Social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter played an appreciable role - they helped spread the deep anger and resentment.
 
The spread of words and pictures via these mediums affected the whole world and showed that normal people can do whatever they want if their patience is tested beyond a certain limit.
