Is the Arab Revolution, the struggle for freedom in the Middle East, an opportunity for the West and for the Free World?
01/05/2009
Even in the hills above Darna, near Benghazi, Libya- where Islamic anti-Ghadafi fighters reviled the West- the mood is for friendly relations and being on the same side as the U.S. and Europe. The U.S. and European support for the democracy protests and movements throughout the Arab world has created a change in the Arab world for how America is seen. Did the U.S. support of autocratic regimes in the Arab world create tensions that were released through activities that targeted America? Could this be the opportunity that would turn things around for the West and the Free World's relations with the Arab and Muslim world? Could this be the beginnings of an opportunity that can bring back much needed peaceful relations with the Arab world and Muslims in South Asia?

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
