Ask HN: What can westerners do to support the Middle East revolutions?

  Plan ahead. Support local representatives who do not think it right to go installing or supporting dictators and bullies.

  Don't meddle would sum it up imo. Learn about the culture and history would be step 2 :) When outsiders have supported revolutions actively in the past, things have had a tendency to go wrong (I am sure there are counterexamples). Revolutions should come from the people involved, not from outsiders.
