Week 1: Fridays in the Middle East

In the middle east, friday is usually a day of rest and for prayers. But instead, it turns out that the Muslims has turned up against the idea of resting and praying, they were thinking friday as a day of of protest. What intrigues me the most is that the people would refuse to listen to the government and do things their way not thinking about how hard the government has worked. Many other countries also do that once in a while, but I never thought that it would this would be so seriousin this country. I picked this piece of interesting news because usually I never feel like looking at the part about the middle east.
