I'm surprised this is going as far as it was. I figured the one in Tunisia was just a one-off, and the one in Egypt was centered around a few copycats who thought they could get it to work there, but we're definitely seeing progress. Whether Mubarak firing his cabinet is a sham move on his part or not remains to be seen, but it means he's taking it seriously

Yes, I think they can.

what bullshit are guys in this thread talking about. the revolution is by the people not the islamic groups because people are calling on all young people to participate. also since police and national security have gone ofline people have been taking care of traffic and protecting properties from thieves. also an addition is that police forces have released criminals from jail and are trying to rob bank but the people and armed forces arrested them and they had police badges same for museum except that people caught them. Also the love for armed forces in egypt the army is emense but the police are hated as they were the force of torture and control. The army and people are one in egypt, the army is with us in overturning the fucking dictator and getting a democracy, he said he is creating a new government but what he doesn't understand is that we don't want him i think he knows it but he has gone power crazy.

I have cousins in egypt really close ones i just heard that the father of them went to the street to protect people properties from criminals and police forces. most you guys have nothing in egypt so you can't talk about islamic brotherhood and all this bullshit. We are tired from dictatorism and before a year or 2 saying something bad about hosny mubarak granted you being caught and tortured. High live egypt i just hope the bank my dad has his saving in is protected but i trust the people to protect. I was never this proud of my country. I wish i was in egypt to protect my dads property.

High live egypt.

down with dictatorism.

down with hosny mubarak.

btw some police forces which are remaining are using live ammunition. Also i forgut high live the egyptain army. Oh yeah and the people saying w=if we engage with israel we would get fucked in 6 october

oh and intenet was forced down by the governments i love egypt, i will always love it

Apparently Imams in the state-owned mosques are telling their flocks not to protest. However they're being ignored.

Uh, you didn't read that Wikipedia page at all, did you?

As for the guy and the Iranian comments: When you have a countries that brutalizes its people when they want an alternative party, and fixes the elections, I don't think that you live in a free, independent country. Read the news. The elections were falsified. If you want to consider Iran free after what happened during and after their most recent election, then there is no way to have a rational conversation with you.

Viva la Revolución!

Egypt, and the other countries joining the uprising have my support!

This thread is do depressing.  You guys should be happy that the Egyptians are finally standing up for themselves, and actually have a chance to createa government that serves the people instead of itself.  The potential here is incredible, but most of you guys are just fighting.

Because they are afraid and the people in Egypt know this.
