Egypt was unique in that it was already a VERY polarized society, but already had a somewhat progressive government. Especially compared to their neighbours. It's hard to watch, but we need to let these people have their own revolutions. Any support we give should be humanitarian and maybe guidance on political and social issues. Although we seem to be starting to lose our way with the latter two. In many ways we aren't as qualified to help as we seem to think we are. Afghanistan will never be like N. America, NEVER. Trying is just retarded.
