I offer this post because the author reports details that I've not seen elsewhere on the tragic and dramatic events that are still unfolding in Egypt. He captures their profound significance and that they will likely have a major influence on future political events in the region. Where he falls down, in my opinion, is his weak liberal-democratic analysis of the event that is typically found in the Western world's progressive-liberal media. He doesn't seem to understand that the Egyptian military regime is an authoritarian monster created by the capitalist Empire and must be seen in the context of the dynamics of that Empire.
