Well great, now there are counter-riots. This is going to get very messy.

They are not being unreasonable at all. They know what they want and if they back down due to promises of people stepping down in months or years to come then the momentum they have built could easily be wasted and things could just go back to what they were. They need to keep going, keep resisting any attempt to move or silence them. They need to do whatever they feel it takes to get what they want. Good luck to them. It's their country.
Precisely. If they settle for less now, it just sends the message that they can be pushed around again.

If mubarak is truly fed up with power and will leave on september, they are being unreasonable, because if mubarak leave now the will be seized by a organized extremist minority called muslim brotherhood and i don't want that

Are you getting your news from CNN, Ashendant?

It is to change what needs to be changed without stopping to listen to the bullshit of politicians who made things shitty in the first place. What is unreasonable is for a president who is clearly unwanted to refuse to leave office. That is not presidency, it is dictatorship. Furthermore, if they back down, there is more of a chance that extremists will take over. I hope they create radical change and do so as quickly as they please. The faster, the better. Egypt is too close to Sudan and other nations that support terrorism for me to be comfortable with turmoil happening there for too long. Just because I am wondering, do you really think you are in a position to call them unreasonable? Neither you or I know what their lives are like. Judging by the way things are right now, we have all been left in the dark about what is happening in Egypt. I wonder what we're going to learn about this over the next decade or so that will make us wonder how we had no clue that shit was going down there. |
