About Egypt ... the MSM is full of how what just happened in Egypt was a military coup, and is therefore bad. It seems to me that ignores the hundreds of thousands of people demonstrating in the streets for an outcome like what happened.
If the military moves toward elections and a return to civilian government, I think the U.S. should keep its hands off. Egypt needs two things: a government that protects the rights of all Egyptians, and one that works to restore Egypt's economy (hint ... tourism). Tourism needs calm, needs order, needs what Mubarak, for all his faults, was able to deliver - safety.
