    I'm worry about all my friends from Egypt.
    Fi aman Allah!

    I think the root causes of unrest is the economic issue.You can imagine if people can not obtain stable income,then they will face pressure of survival in every day.
    Hopeless people will do any danger things,just like anxious bunny will bite.I guess revolution will be coming.

    egy government kill about 1000 person so far ( 250 killed , 800 missing)
    not only fb and twiter but entire internet network , mobile services , phone land line no media or tv reporters allowed to capture any report..and that is very bad news because in general
    when they block internet , media and phone they intend to kill people in mass number
    also egy government stop aljazeera and aljazeera Live on nile sat so people stop even know what is going around..
    btw it`s not only egypt it`s in entire meddle east and all ME internet lines are under monitoring and we cant use some keywords now adays
    but egypt have many private Tv station who can broadcast news somehow
    other m.e countries have no private media no coumminication poeple so governments kill nobody know at all..

    May peace be upon my Egytion's brothers and sisters.

    may allah look after them.

    may the real peace belong to my brosis !

    And May the righteousness win agaist all the Evil.

    amin

    I'm Egyptian, I was in vacation in Kuwait and I'm stuck here now and can't get back to Egypt to my family.
    Mubarak is on top of the country since 1980, 30 years of poverty, unemployment and terror. only few number of businessmen have the whole wealth, people finally upraised and become able to say NO, but unfortunately the dictator Mubarak gave his orders to ministry of interior to use extreme violence against people,, more than 150 killed in one day,, then people finally beat the police and forced them to escape, so his plan B was opening jails and release criminals to let them destroy the country and panic people at homes, to make people ask for police to come back, but people proved that they are able to protect themselves and their possessions, and say no to the return of the police,
    now people's demands are Mubarak OUT, and Change constitution NOW, people are in streets and NO internet or SMS since a week ago, they will not get back home until Mubarak and his regime is OUT

    Hold on Egypt
    the world stands behind you

    At last, Mubarak announced that he wouldn't run for another term in next elections;yet he ll give out presidency as an orderly transition, he said just a half hour ago, but it's not over i guess ,
    i hope everything will be ok for Egypt soon ..

    Mubark is freak criminal and such type of people will never speak the truth he lie for 30 years and he still..
    today he send agents to kill the protesters , according to AlJzaeera about 800 get injured/killed
    I saw with my eyes protesters get burned live on TV !
    it’s really trouble
    news from inside are bad indeed cameras angel we can watch are very limited
    I think we should start praying now for our brothers and sisters
    and no tolerance towards evilness ..

    What happed in Egypt like a bad dream , we all here in Egypt want to live in a good life democratic life , so the Egyptian run this protests , and I think we achieved some of our goals , so now I think time for make every thing come quiet again, i know i hate Mubarak so much but I accept to still till next September, after that make new election . I hope every thing in Egypt be in a good way , I pray for that

    Ok so all i know is that Egyptians are tired of 30 years of unfair life.

    So they want to change their president and goverment as well,lately..the ministers have actually changed,only that Hosni Mubarak doesn't want to quit yet,and he's supported by the army of Egypt,that's why he's not afraid of the angry public.


    To me..i don't see a point of what Hosni Mubarak is doing,he already has tons of cash,and a huge castle,and he has been the Egyptian president for 30 years !

     

    All people here want getting rid of Mubarak today than tomorrow . but we Don't need to have a political space and Fighting for Power between all Political parties .
    We benifit from those days " Re-union " between all people .
    Now , All we need is Re-bulid of our damaged infrastructure and get rest to think of our future President with new Hope and promising future-
    In Shaa ALLAH .
    and thanks for sharing sympathy .

    I think all protesters got what they wanted , most of our dreams will be achieved , hope this revolution ends to start our life again , i don't know what they want again , Mubarak has only few months to leave !!
    God with us :(

    guys see what Mubark government do with people
    watch this video .

    God knows how many times such action toward protesters happened

    أما والله إن الظــــلم لؤم وما زال الظلوم هو الملوم
    سينقطع التلذذ عن أناس أدامـــــــــوه وينقطع النعيم
    ستعلـــم يا لئيم إذا التقينا غدا عـــند الإله من الظلوم
    إلى ديان يوم الدين نمضي وعند الله تجـــتمع الخصوم

    mainly due to political fighting and rights confliction.this upset could put more tension on
    Arabic country ,especially for the country neighbouring Egypt
