Egypt: Mubarak Refuses to Step Down, Protests, Looting Continues

Good for them, you should tilt your hat to these people for standing against whats wrong. I hope they are successful.

 

Egypt...Iran...Tunisia...Albania...Yemen...Lebanon...Thailland...Belgium...suddenly it seems there are massive protest demonstrations being held all over, and it's spreading! Are we witnessing the beginning of worldwide instability?

 

I am curious how the leading nations of the world will respond if this does culminate in widespread instability. This could be the beginning of a chain of events similiar to the Guns of August in WWI.

 

There's not massive and sometimes secret military alliances at work though. Nor is it countries on the brink of war with each other, it's countries on the brink of civil war with themselves.

Plus August 1914 basically involved all the great powers of the time, Egypt is a regional power but aside from that the Arab countries don't exactly have million man armies.

 

morroco and libya next?

i'm all for the people gettin' rid of a useless government, the irish are doing so too, albeit in a much more peaceful way

but what are they gonna replace those governments with?

 

Could this be the beginning of the end of Militant Islam?..

Pretty interesting story about a British journalist getting beaten by police.

 

why do you say that? these are all anti-government protests... can't see any evidence of civilians fighting each other... what i can see, is lots of evidence that police states are pretty much a global phenomena who seem determined to continue to oppress the peoples with their brutality and torture, so that the evil few can attempt to hold on to their power...

these are signs of global rebellions by the peoples, FOR the peoples ordinary people have had enough.... the gloves are off... it seems to me that momentum is building for more PUBLIC REBELLION AND REVOLUTION against their own governments and not each other?

 

[Right up front: I don't like to comment on other posters, rather bring my own general perspective independent of what other people limited to the members of the board and those on this thread may be writing about the topic. My general perspective is my general perspective, and just as I appreciate thread posters and board members communicating your own genuine truth in a general format for the masses, tailored to the people who have a greater conciousness of their actions and intent on this board, I expect the same.

Why do the egyptians do something and the north americans do nothing?

There are strong cultural, and poisoning differences here, if we just deal with the facts on the ground, literally.

The egyptians talk with one another, and other people throughout north africa. They know who is trying to poison them, they stick with traditional foods and methods of cultivation. They maintain vibrant private networks of communication. They communicate better and more often, not 'anti-social networking database-driven websites provided by dark entities' ... by actually talking to one another, treating neighbour more as neighbour, and family more as family, much more closely then people who believe themselves to 'US Citizens/voters/slave/subjects' (unprincipled robots and wards) do. The food choices on egypt are of a much better quality then north american food in terms of nutrition and bioavailability. The water is also not fluoridated. They're not surrounded by flame retardants, retarding their inner flame (bromides), nor do they take as much internally (Coca-Cola, industrial cake-bread). And they do not identify with the propaganda.

While westerners do nothing, and have not governed themselves and thereby not reduced their need for a nanny-State Government (north american, western European, UK, ireland). Sucking the poisons and propaganda all day long has it's toll- It's proved to make people lethargic, and unable to tap into their authority: to author their own lives, to self-govern.


When those on egypt have had enough, their breaking point or threshold is reached more quickly then a north american, english, etc who simply flips the channel on the tele.

How many north americans are unhappy? And how many do anything about it? Go to a demonstration? A protest? Laughable.. that's what cattle do. Or learn to self-govern? 'The people as gods'- the specific definition of democracy. A god who knows who he is, self-governs. It has nothing to do with voting for someone else to lead you.

Here is a link to a realistic pablem-free text about tunisia, for example.

for those who have never talked with men, who are from egyptian culture or believes as a muslim, who have never sat down to a meal, repeat the spoon-fed pablem of hate if it temporarily relieves your symptoms of doing nothing, while the real criminals continue to laugh at your incompetence. To help you ignore your own grossly-bleeding wounds and inequitable position, 'never cure, only treat the symptom' right out of their play-book. Even as your own statements condemn you by going against the soul of man itself - your soul. The solution is to forgive yourself for your mistake.

 

The riots have now spread to Yemen. CNN just said that Yemen was in an official "revolution" state.

 

Perhaps we are seeing the beginning of the mainstream medias inability to conceal or marginalize that instability... keeping the masses ignorant is an inexact science that needs willing subjects.

 

In those middle eastern countries that are in a state of revolution; they (the people) spread the word of where to meet and what to do over twitter and facebook.

 

President Obama promised change. But he couldn't bring Israel and the Palestinians to a peace agreement, and couldn't counter Hezbollah in Lebanon or its patron, Iran.
America is not the stopper in the bottle anymore, and the Arab man in the street knows it. U.S. officials are encouraged by the fact that the protesters in Tunisia, Egypt and other Arab countries seem autonomous of the Muslim Brotherhood and other radical Islamic groups. But that may be false comfort; this process is still in its early stages.
History teaches that revolutions are always attractive in their infancy, when freedom is in the air and the rebellion seems spontaneous.
