My friend gatogo we hope you did not post purposely to tell kaiganjo that he made a typo which we have noticed all along and are least bothered about. Why not stick to the real substance of the matter and not trivialities. After all, are you really that perfect???

With such determined protestors, the regime is out of sorts and it's only a matter of time before MV Mubarak sinks like MV Ben Ali.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PujwO_iY5BU - Raw footage of protestors taking over Qasr-Al-Nil bridge which connects Giza to Tahrir Square in downtown Cairo on Jan 28th. If the US and Israel lose the Egyptian ally regime, big issues (revolts which any 'good' government fears) will pop up in Middle East.
So Israel has no choice but to support Mubarak - @Selah. Defense-wise if both Lebanon and Egypt regimes come off due to these revolts, Israel will feel the short squeeze.
The big one will be such a full blown revolt in Saudi. Oil prices will sky rocket very quickly like in the 70's which will easily lead to global economy shocks.

The sad thing here is the KE tea farms depend on Egypt exports and dependable rains both of which are currently uniting for a bad run.

Israel has to back Mubarak.The West must be backing him too.

Let's not forget who his closest challengers are-The Muslim Brotherhood.

word has it that his family is seeking refuge in UK where they have relatives.... and it is known that his regime has heavily been financed by America.... may be that's how the son also got to work to an American bank in UK... but yes, they could be backing him hence the loud silence...

The level of development in Eygpt is just immence but the people are still not satisfied with it. The country is in Africa and 90% of the country is a desert that has worse conditions than our own Maralal and Marsabit. Yet the country hardly faces famine. With over twenty universities in the top 100 universities in africa the litracy levels and education standards are higher than even that of South africa. Kenya managed 4 universities in that list released last week(none at the top 20). With all these the people are not content, they still believe that a president is capable of so much more.In Kenya the little money that we have is being used to pay for someone's lawyer. The Education system is so weak that it changes after every elections. Schools changing names to National Schools with the hope that the School will now perform better. As much as there were rains in October people are starving. Oh!!!forget everything i said "roads are being constructed"......how could i forget?Kenyanns no need to riot Tunisia,Eygpt,Libya,Jordan,Phillipines and Yemen all have bad leaders. They dont have the kind of leaders we have.......poor them.

Dont see the UAE, Saudi Arabia or Libya going that way any time soon.

The common driver of the Tunisian and Egyptian revolts is unemployment. The dictatorship was the easy target.

When jobs are aplenty and the middle class has no problem providing for their families, few people care who holds the highest office in the land - whether a monarch or a democratically elected person. When cash is scarce, it does not matter if the fellow in office was elected by a landslide.

The just concluded US midterm polls and the Madagascar coup are more classic examples.

But seemingly not the Americans who seem to have been supporting the rebel leaders. Same here.

@Amhere, spot on!In Madagascar, Ravalomanana was a democratically elected President but the public still supportted Rajoelina.The Malagasy case makes me think democracy and intense civilian activism is detrimental to the economy.Compare it with the dictatorial but stable regimes in Libya and Egypt.

"The Islamic revolution in Iran came on the target in 1978, 72 years following the 1906 forced constitution. One Pi cycle of 31.4 years brought us to 2009. We are now turning down for a 8.6 year leg completing a 112 year turning point in 2018. This is the season for global revolutionary contagions." - The Counter Revolution of Iran by Martin Armstrong .

Interestingly, the cycle of political change in Iran/Persia is IDENTICAL to that of Europe suggesting that those two regions will be tinderboxes until 2018. Whilst the former will endeavor to rid itself of dictatorships, the latter will be adjusting to a new reality as result of the financial crisis and the end of socialism. Like terrible twins feeding off each other, Greece sparked off riots in Ireland, Britain and Spain while Iran was the trigger to a successful uprising in Tunisia, Algeria and now the Land of the Pharaohs.

These americans are behind every mess! Check this vs what @Elder posted..... http://dissidentvoice.or...11/01/egypt-is-burning/
And we still think they have the best intentions for africa! To them, its a "use n dump" relationship! We as kenyans also have to be very careful of this "youth fund" that big brother O is floating around!

the arabs can destroy and rebuild. coz they are united by religion and purpose. we cannot try these actions as black subsahara africa. the ethnic divide will ensure that no one is left, were civil strife to occur. case in point kibaki vs raila

I just saw in aljazeera men dragging bodies on the streets(Somali style)over 7 pple killed in the overnight clashes....the army has restricted Mubarak supporters from accessing the squire where antiMubarak protesters are holding a rally.
