It may only be May but a lot has happened in the last few months across the Arab world. After news of the operation in which Saudi terror mastermind Osama Bin Laden was killed in Pakistan by the US was announced yesterday, tweeps are left reflecting on the year that was.
Egyptian Wael Ghonim quips:
2011 is a year that will be marked in history. Its just May and all of this is happening! #Tunisia #Egypt #Libya #Yemen #Syria and now #OBL
Hanan Yousef, also from Egypt, appeals:

From Libya, Ibn Omar notes:

Just a hunch but I feel like looking back at 2011 will be the year that the world changed. #Obama #Binladen #OBL
