It's nice to hear from someone on the scene. Welcome, klad. You should have a better idea of what's happening than anyone else here.
I'm not all that concerned with the Muslim Brotherhood. As you say, they aren't all that popular and they have declared that they won't try for the Presidency at any rate. What worries me is the establishment of some form (or ANY form, for that matter) of Sharia Law, allowing the Islamic hierarchy broad powers within the state, effectively setting up a religious dictatorship. No matter who gets elected as President, he will have to bow to the clerics who will really run the country. As in Iran and many other countries.
I have no problem with people viewing the US as an enemy. Hell, in some ways we probably are. While the hearts and minds of the US people are with the people of Egypt, or Iran, or Iraq, US politicians are more concerned with how much money their corporate leash-holders can squeeze from these countries.In iran ,its different ,the west chose to kill the revolution so Iranians saw the west as enemies and the west mustn't do the same again in Egypt cause most of people here now think that Mubarak still exist because of the help he's getting from countries like USA
Not sure what you mean by "Guide of the republic", but the democracy in Iran is a sham, not too unlike the phony democracy of the old Soviet Union or the current regime in Egypt, even. Even Ahmadinejad's powers are constrained by the Sharia Court, which holds the real power in the country. And I'm pretty sure none of the members of that court were elected by the people.btw ,in Iran ,they have democracy ,but democracy with boundaries ,these boundaries embodies in the Guide of the republic ,Iran would be a democratic county if they get rid of him or limite his powers
That's good to hear. Now let's hope that the people are actually able to establish a democratically elected government, and are not swept aside by an even worse dictator than Mubarak.and people in Egypt are aware of such mistakes and we don't want to repeat it
