Buried Inside - Egypt
With the people of Egypt (Arab Republic of Egypt) calling out for the removal of their present government leadership, they face an age old issue - what will be the outcome to their desire. Egypt history is long and eventful. It has had kings, queens, dictators, presidents and rule by foreign countries. And according to Christain history, it was the temporary home of the King of Kings.
Egypt's current Constitution is less than thirty years old. Few Egyptians under the age of 40 recall life before the present constitution. Let's pray for the peaceful change in government leadership. The military to date has shown restraint by displaying their power but not forcefully dispersing the crowds. Unfortunately, citizens have been denied communications via the Internet by the government.
The following cartoon by William Warren reflects two potential outcomes. However, the outcomes are not as far apart as imagined. History shows that many pursuits of a democracy yielded repressive forms of government. The citizens of Egypt presently have a Republic and they have expressed their desire for the replacement of their leaders who have "stayed too long" and abused their positions. Let's hope they will not allow anarchists to destroy their message and that they will seek leadership at the ballot box.
P.S., President Obama needs to stop commenting on what the people or the government leaders of of Egypt should do or should not do. He is not the ruler of the world! However, Obama should focus need to protect Americans and U.S. interests flowing through the Suez canal. Mr. President focus on your responsibilities and do not be distracted with the internal situation in Egypt. Egypt has been around far longer than the memory of the United States. They do not need your opinions.
