That's nice but the fear-rmongering racists will not relax either even if Egypt leans to a more progressive country afterwards. However there's always a chance of extremist religious groups taking advantage of that revolt. Hate to admit it but Mubarack is right saying that stepping down so abruptly can result in total chaos. Sudden revolt always leaves a vacuum of uncertainty.
Israel will probably not share your optimism since relations were rather favorable before this revolt.

Yes !! we will side with all faiths in adversity ..that is how we work..we are not stupid, however, we have our agenda...you westeners are stupid ..we will work our way ..Inshallah..we have time patience and numbers..we will address the west ..there is a debt to be payed for all the western interference and Inshallah we will overcome.
We are sick of the west imposing their corrupt values..we have our beliefs and values..and you in the west do not understand...but we will win..
To the west I say ..please leave us alone..we will sort ourselves out and create our own balance..we just need time..we will get there..but what you do to us on your doorstep and far away..there will be a price!!
So bugger off!! and leave us alone ..get out of our countries..the west is an interferance..we were the cradle of civilisation once ..we will be again..
Here's hoping the people's revolution is peaceful and is not hijacked by extremists or the military ,Egypt has a very large military and if radicals get in power all hell will break loose in the ME and that is no good for anyone.

right...the muslim brotherhood has assured us that it's "for the people" not islam. ok i trust you nice race bating too. the egyptian government is done for, we'll see what comes next. i guarantee you it will be islamic.
The Muslim Brotherhood have stated "This is a peoples revolution not an Islamic revolution"
so all you fear mongering racists can relax now.
we are being fed a lie by the meda and people are buying it.
"There are decades when nothing happens and there are weeks when decades happen, we are living through history" and this is a beautifull transition.
This photo was taken yesterday. It shows a ring of christan protesters protecting the the muslims in prayer.
The protest is grass roots and belongs to the people, not to religion.
what comes next might be islamic and so what if it is.
what you think all people around the world should have the same type of government as us.
if they did the world would truly be a dangerous place to live.
let the people choose what they have.

Do you have any idea what this entails?

Actually. People all over the globe SHOULD have the same type of government if we are indeed, all humans. That is to say, a fair and just government.
if they did the world would truly be a dangerous place to live.
Speculation.
let the people choose what they have.
What makes you believe it is the people choosing? Are you that blissfully unaware?

Do you really thing a ring of Muslims would protect a group of Christians praying....I think not.
A lot can be learned about the 79 revolutuion. History does tend to repeat itself.
After the bombing of a Coptic Christian Church in Egypt, the last thing the terrorists expected were the events of Christmas Eve (Coptic Christmas - Thursday night). Many people in the Muslim community came together to protect Coptic churches around the country and act as "human shileds" against any possible attacks. Even the sons of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak showed up to help out.
