I don't know what they are going to do but I hope that they end up eradicating all remnants of the regime and go about rebuilding their country and their democracy. Tunisia appears to be doing just that.
There are many successful revolutions in what used to be the communist block that would provide inspiration and hope.
I am not trying to rain on your celebration, but there is much yet to do.
You are right. There is soo much to do. This is only the very beginning in a very long journey. I am counting on the hope that people have had enough of tyranny and will be wise enough to do the right thing Insha-Allah (God Willing).
What is more interesting, what other regimes will follow??
Well I am guessing somebody in Tehran might be taking steps to block certain areas of the internet to avoid another facebook revolution.
Interesting that back in the 1930's the Socialist party (read Nazis) took power by controlling the media at that time (newspapers).
Nowadays the media is controlled by the people.
I hope that Egypt moves fast in returning to business, but there is so much bureaucracy involved in day to day life there, I am not sure how long that will take.
