Spring of Change?

The protests are getting larger: this week it was the Muslim Brotherhood that took to the streets – and were arrested – around the country, including Fayoum, Zagazig, Kafr El Sheik. In Alexandria and other cities, police prevented demonstrations. In Cairo, protesters were kept within the compound of the Al Fateh mosque. No Suzi, I don’t think this is the spring of change the nation has been talking about for decades, the protest hasn’t reached a popular momentum. But the growing demonstrations ought to make some people in the presidential court to think twice about the future. Having said that, I too hope that the Muslim Brotherhood remain on the sideline: opposition and debate is always good but any opposition isn’t good opposition.
