Arab Republic of Egypt bursts out in exultation as Mubarak quits
His exit countermands, six decades later, the Arab domain's original secular despotism. He was tumbled by a radically fresh force in regional politics — a mostly secular, bloodless, youth-led democracy campaign that fetched Egypt’s civil-libertarian and Islamist resistance groups collectively for the first time below its banner. One after another the demonstrators defied each weapon in the armory of the Egyptian autarchy — foremost the heavily weaponed riot constabulary, and then a governing party militia and ultimately the state’s potent propaganda machine. Mr. Hosni Mubarak* capitulation dispatched a rampart of American foreign policy in the neighborhood. The America, its Arabian allies and Israel are now brooding whether the Egyptian armed forces, which has vowed to hold liberal elections, bequeath a move over to a new era of parliamentary pizzazz or to a precarious careen into instability or Islamist reign.
The Muslim Brotherhood, the unlawful Islamist social movement averred it represented simply a supporting actor in the rebellion.The fraternity, which was sluggish to keep up the track of its own youth wing into the streets, has pronounced it will not field a nominee as President.
Hosni Mubarak epoch ceased without whatever of the constancy and predictability that constituted as the hallmarks of his incumbency.
