It was pretty widely acknowledged at the time it took place, about
1990-1996.
No! The *ARAB'S* arab-spring was some time ago. As far back as 1990-1996
- surely not?
But "S.Africa's Arab-spring" is now 2015,2016..... #RMF...burning >>campus.....
South Africa's "Arab Spring" was 1990-1994.
The Arabs got in late, about 2010-2011. And it only worked in Tunisia.
Wrong, superficial analysis:
1976 was closer to Arab-spring; but mobile communications were missing.
1990-1994 was carefully planned after the Berlin wall fell down.
It was the best time to hand over power.
1975 would have been the worst.
Arab-spring means spontaneous uprising; like the current burning of
libraries and other government property.
