Egyptian Army Cracks down on Unarmed Protestors

It appears that all politicians and especially dictators like the deposed one in Egypt have some kid of a personality disorder. They all claim, some more vocal than others, that people are not capable of this that or the other. The deposed Egyptian dictator and current Egyptian Police and Military claim the Egyptians can't rule themselves democratically.

Here is a revelation for you, in my opinion, people are born free and democratic as evidenced by the Libyans, Egyptians, Tunisians that are still struggling for freedom. It is the dictators that have this weird dependency on power and the need to stay in it. The struggle is not for the welfare of the people rather the welfare of the ruling elite.

Egypt is fighting Police and Military dependency on being elites, rulers and masters of Egypt. This creates a pharaoh syndrome and then it is a struggle to ween them off this dependency. To have them finally acknowledge the fact that they live among equals does take effort and sometimes blood. It is evident in Tunisia, Libya as well with the extreme case being Libya.

It is also unfortunate that the western hemisphere is not immune to the pharaoh syndrome. Washington, for example, is doing its level best to make us believe that we really need them yet they are squandering our money, mortgaging our great grand children's future and costing us jobs and our quality of living is suffering. To remove a corrupt politician take effort and a lot of work to organize and campaign against them in an election but still could be done. People must take charge of their destiny and vote for what they believe in if you don't go to the polls then you end up with people like Blago in IL.

Libya - Oil I don't Get it?

Libya produces 2% of the world's oil and gas, its production goes mostly to Europe and specifically Italy. Since the February 17th Brnet Crude went up over 25%, I don't get it 2% reduction eauivalent to 25% price increase some trader is making tons of money here and we are all being penalized. I guess we will have to bail out some rich Wall Street Bankers once more. I will never vote for a corrupt politician!

Egypt Mr. Obama Just a note of caution!

The status quo in the form of the Mubarak appointed Government is still in the country. People are demanding the removal and overahual of the whole system of government. Media is still state controlled and corruption is rampant at all government levels. The current military council has no reason to change the status quo, it is in their best financial interest.

The political landscape of Egypt and the Middle East is far more colorful than what Mubarak sold you. There are for sure "Islamists" yet i still fail to understand what this stupid term means if it is theocratic Islamic then of course there are those. But there are staunch Marxists, communists, socialists, moderate Muslims, left wing Christians, Left wing Muslims, right wing Christians, right wing Muslims, separatists, secularists, pan Arabists, Nasserists and other don't care-ists......etc.

The continuation of the status quo in Egypt and the fact that Mubarak's media hounds are still in control must end and fast. The demands of the people must be met or we will end up with a socialist to communist Middle East. Mubarak sold the USA a bag of goods and we paid him handsomely for it over thirty years.

Egypt needs the people to focus on a transparent civil democratic society that will create jobs and open opportunities for its people. There are those who will take advantage of this situation but the USA must stand on the right side of history and stop supporting oppressive regimes in the region.

Egypt - USA why do people Hate US?

I am an Egyptian born US citizen, I elected to take up citizenship in the US because I believe in the Freedoms guaranteed by the US constitution and the "American Dream". A question that has been posed to me and through the media is "Why do people hate us (USA)?"
The answer now should be clear to all - look anywhere there is a revolt going on and observe the military equipment supplier for the dictators all of them with no exception are supplied by the USA and Western Europe and Israel. if this does not answer your question then I think you should go back and bury your head in the sand.
People around the world do not HATE Americans from the USA for no reason as evident in Egypt's uprising not a single word was made against the USA. In fact they look to the American (USA) people for freedom and support but it is hard to be fair if the tools of oppression are all Made In the USA.
We are the worlds largest arms dealer to the worlds worst dictators. We have a whole gamut of excuses that continue to allow us to do so. Please let us build bridges between countries ourselves and forget the government I love Americans from North, South and Central America. I love Brazilians, Mexicans, Chileans as well as Canadians and other countries. I, however do not approve of the US government selling arms to dictators to kill their people. I will work through our system of government until it fails to stop this practice.

Apple's Role in the Egyptian Revolution


The Egyptian State Media made the following statement before the resignation of the Tyrant Mubarak:

"People of Egypt foreign elements are manipulating the masses and you can find them using their American made communication devices that are keyboard less, black and with a sign of a bitten Apple on the Back"

As an Egyptian Thank you Apple for the device that enabled our revolution - Egypt EGYPT EGYPT!!!

TIME to REBUILD


Today the tyrant is gone and a great deal of work has to be done in EGYPT. Time to rebuild and help the Egyptians regain their financial freedom. After the whole thing settles down Egypt now needs help Egyptian Citizens have spoken and something did change but it becomes our responsibility as free world citizens to help them stabilize that country. They need tourists, investors, educators and people to help them in general. Go Egypt - Go Egypt!!
