Face Off With Facebook

February 12, 2011

Iran almost saw a regime change two years ago when the young people through social web sites were able to organize. Even though almost everything was shut down but Twitter, pictures of the violence travelled around the world.

Egypt and Hosni Mubarak weren’t so lucky.

Facebook and Google savvy young people brought down the Egyptian government that had ruled for 30 years in just under three weeks. Today religious and political movements can spread like a disease, faster, and more deadly than Ebola. The YOUTH MOVEMENT has captured a new way of communicating and committing to their desired goals.

Do you think it not strange that almost all suicide bombers are under 30, and many just teenagers?

A message can be whipped up and inflamed almost overnight and conservative institutions are nearly handcuffed to do anything about it. It’s a whole new world today. A new culture is FACING us and one of its names is FACEBOOK>
