Who cares about the population.

I do not agree with those who blame Mubarack for Egypt's problems , certainly not all of them. However he did make one mistake ,in my opinion, using a lot of the money he got from the US for keeping the peace with Israel, to empower the army.

Basically He was building a power that will be, and is now, against him and against percieved democracy.

Egypt has two strong groups who will fight each other to the end: The Army and the Muslm brothers.

As far as the population is concerned - who gives a damn.
