Arab public and Wikileaks

""I think the Arab public today woke up wiser than before, more cynical than before, and certainly more critical of the government," said As'ad Abu Khalil, a professor of political science at California State University, Stanislaus who runs the "Angry Arab News Service" blog. "You see all these governments competing, trying to bring up the issue of Iranian nuclear weapons. Not a single Arab leader in those discussions brought up the issue of the massive Israeli WMD program that has been going on for decades.""
