Egyptian Crowds Await Mubarak NewsPosted on Feb 10, 2011
Late on Thursday, thousands of Egyptian protesters converged in the epicenter of their revolt, Cairo’s Tahrir Square, to wait for expected news about President Hosni Mubarak, who may not be their president for long, according to the Associated Press.

Before all these celebrations get out of hand, people should know that the latest reports on Mubarack are that he is hosting a giant party in his seaside palace, with scores of Houris and Belly Dancers wildly dancing, while he parades around the dance floor amongst them, gyrating crazily to the blasting sounds of ‘Walk Like an Egyptian’. Doesn’t sound like a deposed dictator to me ... could he have a back-up plan?

Allahu Akbar! (God is Great!)
Congratulations to the courageous people of Tunisia and Egypt!
Finally, the Egyptians and the Tunisians before them have taught the whole world a lesson in true democracy.
Now, the first order of things is to start the process of extraditing the two evil tyrants, wherever they might try to hide and put them on trial for a certain death sentence, and furthermore, to dig out for their billions of stolen assets deposited in Western banks and return these funds to the people.
