(50,254 posts)Supporting Israeli "security" policies or supporting Mubarak wouldn't assist them, though.
None of the liberals in Egypt wanted Mubarak to stay on...they all wanted him out...and the story isn't over in Egypt yet. If the liberals rectify their mistake of supporting market economics rather than worker's rights and social benefits(and that was actually one of the main reasons the MB prevailed in the early elections)the situation can change drastically.
It would have been anti-democratic to OPPOSE the Arab Spring, as you did. And opposing it could never have led to something better coming along later. Besides, it wasn't exactly in my power to stop any of what happened.
And you don't know what I say and do outside this forum-so don't make assumptions about that.
