Ticket pic of the week: Protesting President Mubarak was pretty tiring stuff

Egypt protestor relaxes in a quiet place for some zzzz 2-11

Hey, after a hard day's demonstrating successfully against the Egyptian regime of President Hosni Mubarak, a protester's gotta catch some sleep wherever he can.

And what could possibly go wrong dozing off inside the tracks of a tank weighing upwards of 40 tons? It's parked. No big deal.

Here we are with a "semblant" of a free country. EGYPT> Free of what let's be realistic Africa and the Arab world is far from being democratic for the sole reason that they are not ready yet. The education model is not appropriate. Do we want another Palestine model in N africa cut in two pieces just because the west wants to impose its model of free election. The result.......two governments in palestine. We wanted a free Irak with free election.....the result MILIION of deaths, and a spiral that brought our economy down. SO lets be realistic. Democracy is a complex notion and remember it is not a shoe that fits all. Merci for reading.
