Maybe the Democrats can send some unionistas to go over there and sort things out? Here's the "new" liberated Egypt that Obama and the libs were calling for: Egypt protesters dispersed by force Army uses batons to break up demonstrations in capital Cairo demanding purging of Mubarak loyalists from government. The Egyptian army has used force to disperse activists gathered in Cairo’s Tahrir Square to demand the removal of Hosni Mubarak loyalists from the interim cabinet. Egyptian soldiers fired in the air and used batons in the early hours of Saturday to disperse the crowd, the Reuters news agency reported. Demonstrators had also gathered in front of the parliament building in Cairo, where police beat protesters and used tasers to suppress the crowdsenglish.aljazeera.net/news/middleeast/2011/02/2011226221957428.html |

I had a feeling the protests would go on. I heard today there was killing (of protesters) in Tunisia, where the protesters are back again, this time protesting the interim gov't that they say has taken over their protest, revolution, whatever it is. See-- this is exactly what some of us have been saying about the opportunity for bad guys to step in during the disorganization period when the kids that fought the fight have cleared the path but have no leader... I know you will understand what I mean, ed.

apnews.myway.com/article/20110226/D9LKKAO80.htmlAl-Qaida calls for revolt against Arab rulers Feb 26, 1:24 PM CAIRO (AP) - Al-Qaida's offshoot in Yemen urged Muslims to revolt against Arab rulers and establish governments based on Islamic law, according to an audio tape posted Saturday on militant websites. The appeal came at a time of growing political unrest in the Arab world. Popular uprisings have deposed the leaders of Tunisia and Egypt, and anti-government protests are gaining momentum in Libya, Yemen and Bahrain. The speaker on the audio tape is identified as Ibrahim al-Rubeish, a former detainee at the U.S.-run Guantanamo Bay lockup. The tape was produced by al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula, a Yemen-based offshoot of the terror network, according to the SITE Intel group, a U.S.-based group that monitors extremist websites. In the 10-minute recording, Al-Rubeish criticized Saudi Arabia for providing a haven for deposed Tunisian President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali. He also said toppling longtime rulers is not enough and that new governments must be established based on Islamic religious law, or Shariah. "One tyrant goes, only to be replaced another who may fix for the people some of their worldly issues by offering job opportunities and increasing their income, but the greater problem remains," al-Rubeish said, according to a translation provided by SITE.

The Tunisia story. Interim guy has resigned. NEXT.. please step forward??? Not really breaking thread, because the thread is about old gov't out, new temporary one in, battles ongoing. The longer this goes on, the better chance to see Islamic nations emerge, then we can have Irans all over the middle east and Africa. Goody. english.aljazeera.net/news/africa/2011/02/201122715234442377.htmlTunisia prime minister resigns Mohammed Ghannouchi announces his resignation on state television, a month after president Ben Ali flees the country.

Now Obama is calling for the same kind of "revolution" in Libya that he called for in Egypt. When the Muslim Brotherhood moves into the power vacuum and starts executing homosexuals, Jews, Christians and women who don't want to be treated like dogs, I guess Obama and the Democrats will be happy with the new "free" Arab states...
