I’m waiting for the experts with Egyptian relatives to chime in before offering an opinion ;)

Sunnis/kurds, Serbs/Croats, Somallis
Darfur, etc etc etc… I pray this turns out well for the people of Egypt and Tunisia.

You’d think things would be better in Afghanistan but if you watch Afghan Star the HBO documentary, it looks like the still don’t enjoy much freedom. They want to kill a woman for singing on a TV show.

So true, but they don’t see that now. They see the supression of their own people and the rising cost of food and the lack of any jobs and all they have left is anger. Lots and lots of anger.

God help Egypt if these angry people ever recieve a voice to guide them because that would be all she wrote.
