We get a lot of "what's going on in Egypt" articles by Tom Friedman and others like him. Certainly, some are useful, many are not.
Get a different view by reading a column by Maged Zaher, an Egyptian Copt residing in Seattle. He watches what is happening in Egypt much more closely than you or I.
Zaher calls his thoughts "Turmoil in Egypt Through My Facebook Window." Hat tip to RealClearWorld for the link to this article in The Stranger.
