THE TIMES THEY'RE A CHANGING IN EGYPT



Just look at this quotes:

"In the aftermath of the terrorist operation, we put our hands on our hearts in fear of finding those who claim that this [operation] is a reason for the continuation of the Emergency Law." -- Abbas Tarabili, Al-Wafd

"They say that democracy la American is not for us. OK, that's true. But what kind of democracy is good for us? -- Hazem El-Biblawi, Al-Ahram

"The prime minister [in Iraq] was directly elected. The president did not get the infamous 99 per cent of the votes. There is actually an outgoing president who willingly gave up power and accepted to be a vice president." -- Ahmed Al-Boghdadi, Al-Bayan

"The images of the civil war popped up again after the killing of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafiq Al-Hariri... and receded somewhat after the Syrian decision to pull its troops out of Lebanon... but there are no guarantees that no major problems will arise later." -- Abdallah Iskandar, Al-Hayat
