It would be nice if we stopped propping up the Egyptian Government but I cant see that happening somehow.
Quoting: Is it propping up or trying to keep a government stable?  Amazing that as an American, I have to read the BBC to find out what is going on around the world. Our media is muzzled in what they report. Here is another link from the BBC about the possible domino effect on other countries in that region. They break down the countries with the possible likelihood of them repeating what happened in Tunisia. [ link to www.bbc.co.uk] Hi Smilin' - I for one think, like most of my egyptian friends, that although yes, Mubarak has been in office for a long time and surely it is no Democracy here and more of a Dictatorship. But he kept the country stable, compared to other arab and african nations. If he gets removed through some kind of revolution (which won't happen, at least not in the near future), then what will follow would be worse. The corruption in Egypt lies mostly with people in the Ministries and the Police...those should be removed. But then again, if things get totally screwed up and they really do something similar to Tunisia, I'm outta here...just like all the other expats and tourism will collapse, and then the country will see the difference and really suffer...then wish back the old days under Mubarak. He's not the real problem imo. Thank you for your input. I was really hoping you would see this thread and give your take on what is happening where you live. So how would your country be able to remove the people in the Ministries and Police? Do you think that Mubarak would be willing to clean up his own government and listen to what the ordinary people are complaining about?
