Mubarak Has Stepped Down!!!
I am SO excited!!!! I know this is super OT, but I had to share it with you all. I got to watch Vice President Suleman announce that President Mubarak had waived his position.
I don't know if anybody has been paying attention to the revolution that has been going on in Egypt, but it's been 18 days of protesting in Egypt that has finally led to such a glorious climax of events.

Re: Mubarak Has Stepped Down!!!
Probably not. Mubarak stepping down is a giant victory, but the Egyptians still have to get a government in place. Mubarak strategically appointed a vice president who was a military general. As the military is in control of the country right now, that was the perfect move to set up another Mubarak-style regime. If things tend to head in that direction, protests will most likely continue until they can completely eradicate the current government and vote in a whole new set of people. They want a real democracy, not a dictatorship disguised as one.Originally Posted by JustLacey

Re: Mubarak Has Stepped Down!!!
asianeko,
My sentiments exactly. The world is going to have to wait and see what happens. Will Egypt have a democracy or a fundametalist religious regime?
Iran in 1979. The Russian Revolution. In both instances, the "people" wanted a more democratic regime. We know what they got.

Re: Mubarak Has Stepped Down!!!
@Stella: Yup, I agree completely. The Egyptians do have the advantage of seeing how these past government changes went, and those who fought for their freedom don't want a religious regime. Could it go either way? Of course it can. But I really think the Egyptian people will not settle for anything but what their eyes are set on.
@Mooki: LOL!!! There is rumors that he is very ill right now, but nothing has been confirmed. Some people think he is dying of cancer, some people say he's bedridden. But who really knows? I'm sure LOTS of trash talk is going around
