The Tunisian one was almost certainly organic, but there's some wiggle room for most of the rest of the Arab Spring events, given the precedent of the Color Revolutions(that the rest all backfired is also highly suggestive). Assad definitely pulled the trigger the way Gaddafi did, with the crucial difference of Russia realizing what was going on the second time and putting a stop to NATO's plans to fell the regime.

Someone on another Voat post insisted that the Syrian war is aUS creation as were the rest of the Arab Spring revolts. I don't think so.
