Marwan Bishara, Al Jazeera's senior political analyst, answers questions about the current escalation - and what some see as setbacks - surrounding the uprisings in Libya, Syria, and Yemen. 

How do you explain the fact that since the upheavals erupted several months ago, the Libyan, Yemeni and Syrian regimes have continued their repression unabatedly - while in Egypt and Tunisia the regimes fell quickly?

The transformations in Egypt and Tunisia raised expectations of swift change elsewhere, but when the Arab Spring turned into a hot summer, it led to disappointment and doubt.

What's behind the recent wave of popular protests sweeping the Arab world? Yemen's president, Ali Abdullah Saleh, says... Barack Obama.

"There is a control room in Tel Aviv, it's the cause of all of these problems sweeping the Arab world," Saleh said at the University of Sanaa. "These events are managed by the White House. We hear statements from president Obama asking the Egyptians to do this, telling the Tunisians to do that... this is none of your business, Mr. President."

"Yemen is not Tunisia or Egypt, and the Yemeni people are different," Saleh continued (sound familiar?).

In a separate statement, at a meeting with religious leaders, Saleh said Yemen would split into four parts if his government fell.
