TUNIS (Reuters) - Arab governments, responding to a U.S. campaign for Arab democracy, have promised to carry out political and social reforms in an oil-rich region which includes some of the world's most repressive rulers.

You take the arab league seriously? You actually think they mean that??? That's a pretty damn pathetic straw to be clinging to UT. The arab league is like a weaker more ineffectual version of the UN general assembaly.
The interesting thing was Al-Jazeera (you remember those terrorists) lambasting arab rulers for denouncing the prisoner abuse in iraq while doing far worse themselves (resulting in them being banned in saudi).
Clearly freedom of the press isn't the first social reform in the new leaf you think those guys have turned over.
