    From their Facebook page: Arab Spring as of this moment is calling it quits. Here's our Final Tracks and as always, they're free.

    Silly attempt to trivialise these events Idiot.

    The most brief look at the recent history of the countries like Libya, Egypt, Yemen, Tunisia, Syria and Oman will show the Arab Spring as hugely significant events in their recent history.

    Civil wars in Syria, Libya and Yemen.

    Military support from Saudi to prop up Bahrain regime.

    Created the evironment to allow the growth of ISIS in the region.*

    The overthrow of long time rulers in Egypt, Libya and Tunisia.

    Very many millions killed and many millions more displaced.

    Still ongoing.

    In answer, not a lot really. Perhaps its the fault of the pc liberals at the BBC.

    Syria, same ruler.

    Libya, made worse, return of slavery and migrant crisis.

    Yemen, we're helping the Saudis bomb them but no-one know why.

    Egypt taken over by the military.

    Tunisia, terror attacks against tourists.

    Not exactly "a wave of liberty" or whatever the media was going on about.
