The revolution underway in Egypt is inspiring. Any person who values freedom and liberty should be overfilled with joy at the thought of a free Egypt. Especially those warmongers who lectured us just a few years ago on the necessity of sacrifice for freedom (Iraq).

But Obama is following a very dangerous course. If the U.S. continues to support this dictator, this torturer, we lose the chance to start a fresh and positive relationship with the Egyptian people. Wake the f@ck up, D.C.

The Egyptian people are educated and secular. We must not continue to insult them by calling into doubt their ability to run their country.

Protests have been peaceful so far. That will change, should we continue to supply Mubarak with weapons to suppress the revolution. Tell Mubarak and his people they’re done. Might not be a bad idea to take exile, the dictator’s plea-bargain, while it’s still an option.

I am unusually active on twitter since this began. It really is a fantastic medium for these types of events, though I don’t have much use for it on a day-day.

By the way, El Baradei is headed to Tahir Square to address protesters. The procession is growing in size. From a local journalist:

El Baradei is going Tahrir Square with a group of people who r increasing as the proceed. Amazing scenes being told to me. #jan30 #Egypt
