The domino effect was the election of Barack Obama and his speech about freedom in Cairo. If anyone seeded the democracy it's him. Bush rallied the Middle East together against the USA and everything it stands for with his invasion.
Absolutely, Danny!
The war in Iraq only gather forced AGAINST the U.S. (even among our allies!), while Obama's speech on June 4, 2009 provided a new outlook on what could be, and a subtle indication that the U.S. would respect the will of the people and that, if they should choose to make demand on their government that would lead to democracy, this POTUS would NOT continue to provide support for repressive government.

And still. . .I believe that this (mostly) peaceful revolution should be to the sole credit of the people of Egypt.
