Iran is the real wild card here. They might try to take advantage of this as many places as possible. What’s been going on in Lebanon lately? Haven’t seen much with all this Egypt stuff.

Look for Russia's fingers being in on this, deep in the background. They have MUCH to gain from higher oil prices, they have a relationship with Iran, and they have experience in destabilizing regimes.

Russia also has a lot to loose from these revolutions. They don’t want an even more unstable ME on their door step.
