I fear you are right. I hope the Egyptians are enjoying their brief respite before true darkness falls.

I pray that I’m wrong.

The people in Iran rejoiced to see the Shah leave, and they looked forward to a democratic republic, with freedoms for all.

But their joy was short-lived, for what they got in place of the Shah was a much, much worse tyranny, with repression and torture and murder and executions orders of magnitude greater than anything the Shah ever did.
