Protests in Egypt
The US has long sponsored Mubarak's authoritarian regime, but it looks like it's on a very shaky ground now.

What are your predictions for Egypt's future? An upcoming democracy, or another oppressive Islamic republic like Iran? Or perhaps the revolts will be suppressed?

PS: I ask this here because everyone knows toribashians are brilliant political analysts.

Upon looking at a few statistics, my prediction is that it will become another intolerant shithole theocracy.
I really want to be wrong. I wish these statistics didn't reflect reality.

Yes, death toll topped 100 sometime earlier last month.
Not to mention the amounts of injuries are in the 1,000's a week.
The people will get more violent until Mubarak steps out, which is wanted immediately.
DAMN.
