Bouazizi, the man who triggered the Tunisia protests, had set himself ablaze outside a government building in the town of Sidi Bouzid after police confiscated his fruit cart, saying he was selling without a permit, according to Amnesty International.

In a country with a long-time president and a young, underemployed population, the incident became a symbol for millions. Other Arab nations face similar conditions -- large populations of young people, anger over the economy, and a government that many feel fails to represent them.

Government has done all it can do, Atlas is the answer - JOIN ATLAS TODAY!

Once you realize that every beings purpose in life is to learn, it becomes easier to forgive them for their mistakes.

The future doesn’t exist. The only time we can be peaceful is now, because now is all that exists.
