But maybe that's been happening all along. Anyway, here is someone who discusses the idea.

Arabs see Washington as having supported brutal dictatorships that suppress their people.


basically sums it up, doesn't it?

Good article AW. I would have to agree that the likelihood of the next set of leaders in Egypt will continue to come from the military. What might come out of this is a new constitution which would encourage a more open political process in the future.

I have heard Zakaria comment a number of times and he is pretty level headed. I think a even stronger military dictaorship is likely. It is strange how the best interests of the United States are not what would be best for the majority of people of Egypt and for sure the minorities.

The best interest of the United States are free people that can determine their own future: repression and hopelessness breeds radicals
