I congratulate the citizens of Egypt on their successful overthrow of the government and of President Mubarek. They were completely within their rights to strike and make their plight known; especially in this day and age, seeing as governments everywhere are much more lenient towards protestors than they was in my day. If I were alive today, I would have undoubtedly gone to support the Egyptians’ cause. It is my belief that the opinion of the general public is what matters most in a nation. It does make up over half of the country, after all. If it is not content, then a change in the form or leader of government must occur to satisfy its needs.
The revolutions I took part in during my lifetime were all directed toward creating better nations. The events in Egypt were also exactly that – the first steps in the rebirth of a superior Egypt. I hope that those who took part in the strikes against Mubarek are successful in finally creating a government that does cater to their needs.
