I am wondering how people did not see the current events in Egypt coming. Yes, they overthrew a dictator but in its place they gained a military government. No one could see it as a victory for democracy or freedom; just a change to a new kind of non-democracy.

Now, the soldiers who helped the citizens overthrow the government are resisting the new protests and even though there are promises of change, there is no democracy in sight. This should not be a surprise. Military leadership is incapable of the formation of a democratic state because a military is the antithesis of democracy.

Do you see a democracy coming soon to an Egypt near you any time soon?
