This region is tuning into a greater Islamic Republic right before your eyes and all that can be said 'about time'? Talk about sheep lead to the slaughter.

So I gather you don't believe that those people deserve self determination?

Or that the world needs to get rid of another dictator who's too stupid to actually believe he's fooling the international community?

I suppose by your responses you two actually believe Islam is a peaceful religion too. Just look at Iran and you can feel the love can't you? Wasn't there someone on another post who told you oh don't worry Egypt is safe from Muslim Brotherhood he boasted they would need 60% of population to back them. Did you know that there are close to 54 million Muslims out a population of some 90 million in Egypt? Go right ahead and keep thinking these are just brave young students shouting slogans for freedom and democracy.

Meanwhile back in the world of reality, Egypt's new ruling military council has appointed an Islamist judge to head the committee drawing up a new constitution.

In the real world how is there as "islamist" judge still in office after 30 years of a dictator clearing out the judiciary?

Meanwhile on how to sound like an ass hole

First off, am I not entitled to my own opinion without someone making me seem like an idiot?

Of course I know that people in power in Iran (I'm sure if they were Christians or Jews they'd still be a$$holes) are Muslim. Of course I know that Islams "cause" is to convert forcefully or peacefully, the people of the world to Islam (had that hurled at my head in another thread).

Your point?

But is it not logical to cheer these peoples in their attempts to rid themselves of a maniacal dictator?

If not then I think you need to get back to reality

His point was mainly nonsense.
Its a retired former supreme court judge heading a commitee of 3 current judges 3 constitutional lawyers and one member of parliament and they are not drawing up a new constitution. They are dealing with a small number of amendments that were introduced as emergency legislation mainly transferred powers to Mubbarak, changed term limits, nominations for elections and freedom of information.

There will at a later date be another committee formed to draw up a new constitution which will then have to be put to a referendum.

Wierd isn't it, somehow it just doesn't sound as scary as "islamist drawing up new constitution".

Logical if leadership is exchanged for something better.

As far as your comment about me being an ass hole. I have one thing to say to you buster. I can most definitely with out a doubt resemble that remark at times!

No, I believe that the Egyptian people have the right to self determination. Was I not clear?

I'll go ahead and continue to believe in the American concept of Government by the People. Don't you find it the least bit hypocritical to demand it for yourself but deny it to others?
