The Jasmine Revolution likely will spread to about 50% of the countries on earth where the average person can no longer afford to buy enough food to survive. The dynamics of this worldwide revolution are much like the French Revolution of the late 1700s where the people were starving. And just like that revolution when people are starving and can't get enough food to eat they will not be stopped with guns and often soldiers of those nations turn against the governments because the people are starving and governments often collapse.
So, in around 50% of the countries of Earth over the next 10 or more years we will very likely see this presently called "Jasmine Revolution" spread. It is not really about anything other than the fact that there is no longer enough food or opportunity to earn enough money to buy food.
When in many places people are spending 90% of their actual income for food and then like this last year the price of literally everything goes up 28% on average worldwide it creates worldwide instability and not necessarily democratic reform. One hopefully would like democratic reform and people actually being fed. But when even China is being threatened from within by the Jasmine Revolution anyone worldwide can see just how serious this is to worldwide stability and security.
I would say the major cause on earth presently for this shortage of grains worldwide likely began around 2007 I believe when the Great Australian drought occured. Before that the world had about 130% of its grain needs met. However, that year because of the terrible drought in Australia the world lost between 10% to 20% of it's worlds needs for grain from that drought and other weather calamities worldwide. However, this year was even worse because of the fires in Russia, Russia stopped selling grain outside of Russia, Australia has been hit this time with 100 year floods, Pakistan has been hit with 100 year floods, Brazil the same etc. etc. etc.
So, the result is that there is possibly 100% of the grain needed (or less) because of this worldwide. This has driven up the price of food worldwide where about 50% of the world's people can no longer afford it. Because of this and the fact that currencies are now a less sure investment than before has caused investors worldwide to invest in scarce commodities like food and oil, which in turn drives up the prices of food an oil even more worldwide.
So, the panic of the very poor who can't afford food is echoed by the panic of middle class and rich investors looking for safer investments which results in the Jasmine Revolution that will continue to spread and topple governments likely in 50% of the nations worldwide.
Though the other 50% of the governments will not fail like in the U.S. and Europe they too, will be tested to the extreme in trying to feed their people and trying to create jobs for the average person.
This problem of lack of food likely will increase over the next 10 to 20 years and increase the worldwide problem. I expect 50% of the governments on earth to collapse. This in turn will greatly increase the price of oil and all governments who survive this will be forced to move away from oil permanently or cease to exist.
