Egypt News- Revolution and Aftermath http://topics.nytimes.com/top/news/international/countriesandterritories/egypt/index.html?scp=2&sq=arab%

In January 2011, Egypt, erupted in mass protests. After 18 days of this protesting and loosing the U.S support Mr. Mubarak stepped down in Feburary. That ended 3o years of autocratic rule. The reason for this was to remove him from power and it happened. Throughout many months protests erupted being displeased with the progress. The people wanting elections were scared that a couple groups would get into power. This non political groups assured the people that they did not seek to be in power. Elections were held to reform the goverment. Also Mr. Mubarak is being tried for his brutal ways. Egypt still remains fragile and it will take time and effort for the people to recover from this terrible man. I believe that this is what had to be done and this man was crazy. He deserves to die and not be let free. I hope they find a good government everyone agrees on. That is what i think.
