CIGI Senior Fellow Bessma Momani visits Inside the Issues to discuss the shift of the "Arab Awakening" to an "Arab Disillusioning." Beginning with Tunisia, Momani shares her optimism about the structural changes taking place, noting that while economic malaise continues to add to internal pressures, there is hope for eventual progress. Moving across the region, the discussion offers insights on current circumstances and anticipated change in Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Iran and Israel. Can Egypt's new leaders meet expectations given the decaying systems they have inherited? As states transform, how worried should we be that rebel groups will capture power? Is it time for the West to intervene and tip the balance in Syria? Tune in for the full conversation and share your thoughts on Twitter and Facebook.
