    Like Iran 1979, after the Shah step down, the state run by a PM and later taken over by religious fanatics. History repeats!

    It was predicted.

    But Obama and Sarkozy threw Mubarak in front of the bus anyway.

    My heart goes out to the Coptic minority.

    They've had an Islamic government for quite a while. I don't things will change all that much no matter what group gets into power. Although the copts and any other non-islamic religious followers might get targeted more if not officially hunted out and persecuted for not following government religious dictate.

    I just saw a horrible picture/video of a poor young Egyptian woman being beaten and stripped of her clothes by the Egyptian army for protesting against the EGYPTIAN ARMY. I am not Egyptian, nor a Muslim, but I bet many, many regular Arabs, Muslims, Egyptian are going to see how evil their army is and all hell is going to break loose real soon!
