| The protest movement that is sweeping across the Middle East is a disaster for US policy in the region. Hosni Mubarak was the America's key ally in the Arab world. Now regimes in Jordan, Yemen, Algeria and even Bahrain -- home of the US fifth fleet -- are under threat from mass protest. The anti-war movement has consistently opposed western intervention in the region and supports the struggle of the people there for freedom and democracy.
