(Reuters) - The Arab Spring was supposed to bring freedom to Egypt. Instead, concern is growing inside and outside the country that an illiberal wind is blowing the transition from autocracy off course

WTF is it with people being arrested for 'making fun of' or speaking out against a person/administration? The second you do that you show how weak your position really is, and how tenuous.

Disappointing and frightening.

You know, I'm beginning to think that Egypt should go back to the Kemetic religion and back to the Pharaohs ruling. It wasn't a great government system, but it was a whole lot better than what they've got now.

No, you're right, everyone's allowed to believe in the Divine in a way that they can connect with and more power to them. The problem is that Egypt was converted by the sword and is being held, spiritually speaking as well as physically speaking, by threat of more force. It's not right. I think I was trying to offer up a better, though vastly imperfect, idea. Just to get the conversation started.

C'mon egypt... you should be better than this.

Muslim Brotherhood vs. Egypt

The day Mubarak quit, I said, Now the hard part starts.
At least the Brotherhood has been so impatient that no one can not see their real intentions power grab.
