Mubarek would have never stepped down and left such a vacuum had Obama not threatened him and sacred the Egyptian army into forcing him to relinquish power so quickly. That's the truth.Although the first revolution started in Tunisia, it's influence on the Arab world is zero compared to Egypt. Anybody with basic knowledge about the Middle East knows that there are a few "epicenters", and one of them is Egypt.
I agree that Egypt is historically more influential than Tunisia, but even if that is true it doesn't mean that we forced regime change in Egypt, I think you are rather giving the Egyptian not enough credit there, and the military which set up the government after him and ruled until elections could be organized.
Obama isn't some all powerful deity who can mold countries through his will with a single sentence. It doesn't work that way.
