Eight years is a decade and you might as well leave it as is.

USA didn't want him for another term specifically because he stood against their desires they even bugged his phones, I am no supporter of Baradei and care little about him but fair is fair.<br /><br />The vast majority of Egyptians are not illiterate when literacy rate is 78%, and poverty rate is 20% just about poverty line $2/month and 20 % belown that line..it's a big percent but far from being vast majority..again more nonsense from someone ignornat who knows nothing about the country, go read some statisticsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8003335.post-32041554403233300512011-02-27T12:20:20.904+02:002011-02-27T12:20:20.904+02:00anonymous#2, the curfew is just an excuse to clear...anonymous#2, the curfew is just an excuse to clear the square, i am not sure if you are in Egypt but the curfew was never really imposed not even from day one when it was from 18:00 to 8:00 or later extended from 15:00. People never cared about the curfew and well in the wee hours you will find people on the streets -less than normal of course but still very vibrant and many stores are open and serving patrons like there is no curfew.<br /><br />Trying to force a curfew on 80 million country or 17 miliion city? what a joke. They only wanted to clear the square and when they found no excuse for using violence then played the curfew card, what criminals in Tahrir square right in downtown? this is nonsenseAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8003335.post-61718789829064210222011-02-27T07:38:57.052+02:002011-02-27T07:38:57.052+02:00The army will take over and remain in power. If yo...The army will take over and remain in power. If you think that the West will allow democracy or risk another Gaza-type elections you are dreaming in technicolour. Do you wonder why coverage of Egypt in the Western media has ceased. All are now focussed on Libya.Come on. Realize that the same powers that be in Egypt are still pulling many of the strings. A few bandits will be hung out to dry to satisfy the nation's thirst for vengeance and justice but come on. Do you think the billions stolen will be recovered? Do you the president or his son will be arrested and tried for theft. Seriously? The army wants life to return to the way things were before the protests. <br /><br />Who is Baradei anyways. You are naive if you think he is the hope of the future. He was a UN puppet and his compliance with the decision that there were alleged WMD in Iraq makes him even less trustworthy. He would be another puppet for the interests of those who want 2 continue 2 see the vast majority of the Egyptian people remain illiterate, impoverished and lining up for basic necessities like bread. <br /><br />Egypt was the pearl of the arab worl. The cultural, political and even religious lead4er. It lost that position long ago. How do u eradicate almost 60 years of economic, cultural and even religious decline? Your nation woke up finally but like the last anonymous stated, you gave up much too soon. The goal should have not been just to remove the president. It should have been to remove all of those in compliance with him. That includes most of the top military staff my dear. Wake up and smell the coffee. There is a great article on al jazeera english's website that discusses this very thing. Read it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8003335.post-75278082084057052962011-02-26T20:56:57.129+02:002011-02-26T20:56:57.129+02:00From overseas it seems to me that you had your cha...From overseas it seems to me that you had your chance and you blew it. You had a physical base of representative government in Tahrir Square. You had a tent city, the basis for an organization, close communication. You had a place that could be defended. You could have made the powers come to you. But you gave it up. Now you are helplessly watching talking heads on TV. You ought to take back that square and make it the new seat of government, period.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8003335.post-16439728571477886152011-02-26T19:27:30.684+02:002011-02-26T19:27:30.684+02:00@ second anonymous: I just want to know why is the...@ second anonymous: I just want to know why is the curfew obligatory now and not from the beginning, If they decided to apply curfew just now why didn't they send a message to those who were protesting telling them to disperse like they always used to do, not to assault them like the MOI and it's thugs, and what factories and traffic on Friday night !!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8003335.post-64276533035116635592011-02-26T16:50:49.658+02:002011-02-26T16:50:49.658+02:00Most of the time I do agree with you Zeinobia but ...Most of the time I do agree with you Zeinobia but not now. Curfew means that you could even get shot if you are out. It is now there for a clear reason: To be able to sort out criminals.<br /><br />Democracy comes with rules too and Egyptians have to learn to live by such rules. In the past we did not respect our government, we feared it. So we did not respect their rules. That is why we drive like mad people and break any traffic rule if it suits us.<br /><br />Nowhere is it permissible to protest in the vicinity of a parliament building. It makes sense. Do you want to see it going up in flames too?<br />We can protest all day long. It is obvious that the army has been lenient so far, but now they are tightening the grip to establish basic order. How can we build a new Egypt, while every Tom Dick and Harry starts a protest or a strike and thinks just because you hold up a signboard he will get what he wants?<br /><br />If it continues like this, our factories will shut down, tourists will stay away and millions will be out of their jobs and in the end those will want the old regime to return.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8003335.post-74720175928241955482011-02-26T02:31:10.526+02:002011-02-26T02:31:10.526+02:00That is why the people need to go on the streets E...That is why the people need to go on the streets EVERYDAY, not only once a week on a friday...
