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.
