    Yeah this crap happens now a days - it happens in China, it happens everywhere where the government blows.Egypt is supposed to be 'democratic' - basically by pressure of the United States and President Mubarak doesn't give a sh*t really - he puts pictures of himself all over Egypt like some dictator would; he rigs all the elections. Egypt's system blows - in the United States we have a smaller degree of the Rich get richer, and the poor get poorer - over there its that x100. Its ridiculous over there - the only way to live is if you're really really really rich - or else life sucks. but Yeah Mubarak is a dictator.

    I'm glad we have an Egyptian here to tell us these things. Hugo Ch?vez is a little prick I hate as well, he's been rigging elections too...ugh...We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert the children to christianity so they can be like America, then we would have no problems.
