Mubarak was smart enough to refrain from random killing of a major portion of the population.
Who deposed Mubarak?
I don’t think he was so smart.
Read up on the history of the Brotherhood and you will be convinced that there will never be “peace” until the Caliphate.

Who deposed Mubarak?
Pretty much the same people who overthrew Mosi. After all, according to some, the brotherhood is a tiny faction so they couldn't have overthrown Mubarak.
Its a muslim country of ever shifting factions like all muslim countries are. Mubarak was the balancer of the country and once he was gone Egypt was toast. Its not going to get better. We need to cut our losses and let them fight it out among themselves.
Our money would be better spent helping to defend our only friend in the region.
