There are reports of Christian services being conducted on Tahrir Square as we speak.

When the young man who helped to create this overthrow as Egypt’s head of Google, Wael Ghonim, a MUSLIM, says his heroes are Zuckerberg and Gandhi, a JEW and a Hindu, we should recognize that something significant is going on and we shouldn’t dismiss it outright.

Here’s Ghonim’s interview last night on CNN. It’s impossible to watch it and not come away thinking we are watching something historic. Certainly the rest of the muslim Middle East must be terrified this could happen to them.

God willing, it can.

Be wary of what you’re being sold.

Because they've had a dictatorship for over 30 years there is no infrastructure for a representative govt with parties representing different people. It takes time to create this infrastructure and belief in the rule of law not the mob.

This young man is a great poster boy for the radicals. He probably naively believes that the radicals will be agreeable to sharing power in a representative govt. The radicals are very clear they want Sharia Law.

We still haven't cleaned up the mess that Carter made in the middle east. Now obozo is making it near impossible.
