Egyptian's want freedom and democracy

90% of Egyptians are Sunni Muslims of Islamic-Sharia Law

Do Egyptians realize that democracy means freedom & human rights for women as well as men

Recently posted: a moving report from Egypt.

http://www­.commondre­ams.org/vi­ew/2011/01­/30

"There is a great sense of pride that this is a leaderless movement organized by the people. A genuine popular revolt. It was not organized by opposition movements, though they have now joined the protesters in Tahrir. The Muslim Brotherhoo­d was out in full force today. At one point they began chanting 'Allah Akbar' only to be drowned out by much louder chants of 'Muslim, Christian, we are all Egyptian.'­"
