the situation in Egypt

Those people have been living under Martial Law for 31 years, thats alot of anger built up, but the government isn't going to roll over without cracking a few heads. Down with tyranny!
 
While Democratic Republic of Egypt would be awesome, the Egyptian Islamic Emirate would be awful for us. I'd rather have the strong hand. I don't believe in democracy in 3rd world.
 
LOL.

Americans that cheer them on need to do so with a great uneasiness.

Since when has Democracy worked in the middle east? Strong leaders appear to be needed to control the differing ethical and religious factions and radical groups.

So be careful, the populist leader that might come into power could easily be worse than the leader they had before. Change isn't always good. Just ask Iraq, Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, Afghanistan, S. Vietnam, etc.
 
My big question is why the Egyptian gov't is trying so hard to destroy the media coverage of the protests. Do they really think allocating all that time and all those resources to killing the media coverage is going to make them look better?
 
I love this. Whether or not this gets the outcome they want. Which is freedom. It still spreads the message correctly and these people understand what they want. This isn't a normal riot. This inspires me and gives me hope for the world. When we allow our governments to do whatever they want tyranny happens. So standing up for freedom is what is important here. That message will never be silenced.

I feel it is always good strategy to stand up for the right, even when it is unpopular. Perhaps I should say, ESCPECIALLY when it is unpopular.

I am very surprised you have not been flamed incessantly for this blatant reference to mormonism.
