No. Go read up on it.

The Military own a lot of the businesses and Commerce. The threat of a General Strike was what made them kick Mubarek out. What happens now is what matters. Will the West continue to pour money into the coffers of the Generals, will the Country keep on the same course, will it turn into a Islamic Revolution, what's the next country to try this?

This is just the end of one chapter and the beginning of another. The End Game is a long way off.

History was made? Have you heard of "Velvet Revolution" in Czechoslovakia in 1989?

Please don't bring facts to the debate. This was pre GFY, pre the birth of many here and therefore doesn't count.

He had no power once he told the military to take extreme measure to make the protestors stop and they didnt follow orders.

I think egypt will go in the right direction ..theres no reason to belive they wont.

We here in the USA have become so wrapped up in terrorism we forget sometimes..people are people..not everyone wants to die let alone die for some religion.The middle east is going to change.We live im a much different world than we did 20 years ago.Hiding the truth from the people is very hard to do.

I'm sorry, but it is a fervent Islamic country, and the only law that will be tolerated is Sharia law. It would be lovely to think that they could have a pleasant, freedom loving society, but that simply can't be.

Although, if the military enforces a separation of religion and state, that would give them some kind of chance.
