Couldnt agree more. You may not like the lion tamer, but at least he's keeping the lions under control. The Saddam situation is a lot like that. Anyway, he's gone, and the army is in charge, promising a smooth transition to democracy. Well see how this goes.

Great, they got rid of him.
Now its time to actually deal with the problem. Systematic corruption in all levels of government and crappy economy. Elect your way out of that one.... |

Fine, Mubarak is gone, but their nation's economic problems remain. Those aren't likely to get any better with their current leadership vacuum. There is a pretty good chance if their future leadership isn't pretty pro-America and pro-Israel they are going to see much of the $1 billion+ in aid we send them dry up too. Then there is the question of what their new government will end up becoming. Of course there is the possibility that extremists are going to decide they want in on the new government, through elections if possible or violence if necessary. Then you have the potential for some in the temporary military leadership deciding they don't want to be quite so temporary. This is far from over and anyone who claims to know what Egypt is going to become probably doesn't know what they are talking about. As I watch the media falling all over each other to see who can gush the most about this wonderful transformation in Egypt I am reminded of why I believe the media is pretty much made up of idiots. I don't think we should have done anything to try and stop this from happening and I also don't think anything we could have done would have worked. That said, I'd guess there is about a 50/50 chance whatever the new government in Egypt ends up being will openly hate America and Israel and it is effectively guaranteed that the new government will not be as friendly toward us as the old one. ![]() |
