So the question on everyone's mind is: who's next?
The Egyptian revolution is a challenge to state led authoritarian capitalism, but it is also a response to rising food costs and soaring unemployment. There is also the social media factor, which has allowed protesters to circumvent traditional state run media sources and organize more efficiently.
What countries offer a similar mixture to that found in Egypt? And what investments are at stake?

yeah, not bloody likely.
I wouldn’t mind seeing a little revolution in some on that list.
This is great news. We could have a world with no dictators. However, I doubt that Vietnam or China will get rid of their turd dictator.
The U.S.?
In 2012?
I wonder which one is Soro’s next target.
This list is precisely why I expect the Muslim Brotherhood to behave themselves in Egypt for a year or two. Although the Suez Canal would be something they could use as a weapon against Europe they would be wise to be patient for some bigger fish to become available. 0bama and the USA might destabilize oil countries like Saudi Arabia and Libya for them. Once those countries are destabilized the MB could consolidate them with Egypt and really stick it to the rest of the world.
Anyone think North Korea got to watch????? Wonder how much China watched?
Jordan will be the next target because of its proximity to Israel.
Don’t bother Dear Leader right now...he’s still trying to decide if he should care about what’s happening in Egypt and, if so, how he’s going to make it look like he cares.
No America? Pussies.
This reason is their despair and hunger. A major cause of this is a food shortage. War is the regimes such as the one we can expect, to coral and divert its peoples' rage. They only need to be ruthless.
Algeria should be at/near the top of the list.
Libya, Iran, and China, I wouldn’t mind but at the same time I remember the phrase that more tears come from answered prayers than the unanswered ones.
We’ve already seen how Iran, China and Venezuela handle these sort of uprisings. Letting them go on for three weeks isn’t part of their strategery.
Jordan.
With an Egypt ruled by the Muslim Brotherhood, Jordan is all that stands between Iran’s caliphate child from obliterating Israel.
Jordan will be the next target. Somalia, Yemen, those are small fry. Jordan.... Pray for the king.
A great day is dawning - an era of freedom and democracy. This is the event we have all been waiting for - the middle east is about to fall!!!!!
Never thought the Soviet Union would fall! And now this! A great day in the world.
Amazing!!!

You left one out. The United States of Obama.
They might be on an accelerated timetable due to the risk of losing Obama in two years.
