I believe that quite a lot of protesters don't like the Muslim Brotherhood (along with one women who appeared on the BBC's coverage, saying "I am a Muslim, but I do not support the Muslim Brotherhood; I am a private Muslim, and worship should be kept in the home, not in government."
), but they might not be a good sample.
It's a hard line to dance, but I'm glad the commander of the forces in Cairo pretty much said "We will not fire on civilians. Period." to the President and the Press instead of waiting for Mabarak to give the order, then telling him to go fuck himself. He still has a large number of the presidential guard protecting him.
My thoughts on the protests in Egypt?
If they continue to go well, then it will be a Crowning Moment of Awesome.

The term "Great Man" is disturbingly interchangeable with "mass murderer" in history books.It's the forum being dumb again. Delete the spaces in the url after the commas.

I like Israel and all, but I don't like this pushy attitude of theirs that we should do everything they say, and yet they don't do everything we say. Frankly I'm tired of it.
I can understand it in so much that without international support Israel is very much fucked. Not to mention a fair amount of countries want to see it die so I can see why they wouldn't be the most polite or patient regarding it.
Well he's talking about WWII when the Chinese bomb pearl harbor and they commuted suicide by running their planes into the ship.OK, I gotta remember to stop linking the LA Times. Here's Al Jazeera:

I'm done trying to sound smart. "Clear" is the new smart.^^
You would think that might encourage them to listen to us more often, and maybe be a little more fucking polite about asking us to do things.
We seem to have this one-way relationship with Israel where we give them tons of stuff, and they demand more, but give nothing in return.(oh, except Mossad Agents who get caught spying on us)
I can't blame them for espionage, I forgot the exact expression, but spying on your allies might prove to be more to your benefit than your enemy.
I can see why our relationship is frustrating since it is one way but my question is if there is anything Israel can give us in return?

Assuming of course that anyone in charge here actually cares about efficacy, not appearances.

I cant help but feel that America is gonna get a crapton of egg on its face from this.
You are NOT going to help the situation in the Middle East by basically saying "We will bomb the crap out of your country in the name of democracy, but if its a democracy that might inconvenience us, we will not support it."
