While I totally understand and don't debate that the US has supported many of the revolutions in the Middle East, there is a fundamental difference between supporting and creating said movements.
As far as I can tell, the US has been a follower, not a leader, in these movements. Sure, activists have been trained in the US. That's been the case for decades though, and it took organization and significant change and economic pressure — not brought about by the US — in the region to create an the conditions for change.
