What the hell is going on in Egypt?
President has announced a new cabinet, yet refuses to step down as the public want. Why is it so hard for him to do? Clearly, he got the message.

Re: What the hell is going on in Egypt?
You didnt expect him to voluntarily give up his position did you? This man has been ruling for what...30 odd years? Opposition not allowed...stuff like that. The only thing that kinda worries me, if he indeed steps down, that the country will become a victim of idiots like the Islamic Brotherhood, and become an abomination like Iran. same thing goes for Tunesia btw, they seem vulnerable atm as well, a perfect time to strike for religeous fanatics.

Re: What the hell is going on in Egypt?
Given the fact that many in the nation are saying they want him dead, yeah, kinda. I mean, I'd gtfo of my country if my people rose en-masse on the streets all because they wanted me gone. That would tell me 30 years is enough, goodbye. If he remains, he needs to be very careful of attempts on his life. It must suck when the biggest death threats you have are coming from your own people.

It's all because of "wikileaks"!

Re: What the hell is going on in Egypt?
LOL nah, wikileaks could cause some ruckus at best, but not entire uprisings. besides, as far as i know Egypt wasn't even mentioned in the stuff they released so far. Matter of fact, i havent seen anything "shocking" from wikileaks at all. I mean...telling us that certain people regard Berlusconi as a pompous pimp isnt really news, we all knew that already.

Iran, Tunisia, Egypt, Jordan, Syria... a humanist/democratic movement is spreading like wildfire through the middle east. Best of luck to them!
