Masters of English literature, is the following paragraph correct? No grammar or punctuations errors? - flah10 - 02-17-2013 02:15 PM

Arab spring reached Yemen in late of February 2011. The removal of Egyptian dictator from power, in February 24, 2011, fuelled the situation in Yemen and encouraged more Yemenis not just to pour to street but also to stay there. The new era of communications undoubtedly helps Yemenis youth to get their messages out. Social media such as Facebook and Youtube were among other tools that used by youth leaders to help in their attempt to bring Yemenis together. The Dictator, Ali Abdullah Saleh who ruled Yemen for over thirty-three years, sent his troops and tanks to crash the uprising. For weeks Saleh and his security forces failed to crash the protesters. In the late of March 2011, and after fifty-one people killed, Saudi Arabia, United States, and United Nations were became heavily involved with Yemeni situation.

The Arab Spring..................era of communications undoubedly helps Yemeni youth (no s)

crush the uprising not crash. and UN became (no were) with the Yemeni situation.

Overall very good - just these small errors. Well done.
