Re: who is following egypt right now?

I'm following it, President Mubarak doesn't seem to be handling it that well.

Re: who is following egypt right now?

I'm not exactly watching CNN all day following coverage, but I'm definitely aware of what's going on. It's just a mess down there.
We talked about it yesterday in social studies, and our teacher said it's a big problem for the US (because we get a lot of stuff from Egypt), Israel (because Egypt is one of their more prominent allies), and the world economy (because Egypt controls the Suez Canal, connecting the Red Sea to the Mediterranean Sea, which is a major shipping lane).
Hopefully this is resolved soon.  hmm

Re: who is following egypt right now?

I'm watching it. One of my friends in Egypt right now and no one has heard from her and her family because the internet was cut off there. Hopefully the situation is resolved peacefully, and soon.

Well, it's not an occasion for smiles, aware or not.  These people have been repressed for 30 years.

Re: who is following egypt right now?

What amazes me is that it's taken this long for the Egyptians to react.  I mean, 30 years is a long time.  How do corrupt leaders seem to have a knack for keeping people calm for so long?

Ok I'll give you that, but seriously, how can an entire public not react to oppression for 30 entire years?  Mubarak must be a god in speeches.

Re: who is following egypt right now?

Well, it can affect our economy drastically. We get gas from there, so gas prices are going up. Our world is connected in lots of ways, and a problem in one area can cause a chain reaction. So I think the least I can do is keep up on it.
