Sad to say, my predictions concerning Egyptians’ crisis is quickly coming to pass? Protest eventually resulted into violence in Egypt. The weapon of confusion has been introduced. Pro-government camp now arose to divide the voice of unity? The fate of breaking of new dawn is now in a dangling balance? The spirits of some Egyptians in this struggle is now fainting? Will this historic momentum be allowed dead? Will the aggregates of energy in Egypt gradually dwindle? What will become of this matter?
President Barack Obama’s reputation is on the line for being referred to as an ally of Mubarak? How so true that our relationship can redefine our reputations so quickly? If Mr. President doesn’t come out defiantly against this impression, it will affect the history of African-American people of the State. Now a chain reaction is coming? What if another brother is gunning for presidency? Both precedents and antecedents will then count, either for or against?
As usual in most African protests, the Police force has masqueraded into pro-government camp? Yes! The Soldiers are still indifferent; but for how long will that be? They may side with this corrupt government of the day within hours? Gradually, a dismissal of historic gathering will occur? Will all these amount into nothing? Let it be written in history that the whole world is watching! We saw it all! We are reading, Tweeting, blogging…we all heard about it! We saw the stance of each world leader? We saw the position of each country president in this matter. When the centre could no longer hold? When things fell apart? We knew those who influenced change! We can differentiate the enemies of peace in Africa! There shall be no mistaken the nomination of Noble Laureate for Peace!
We know this will go down in history as monuments. Posterity will never forget. Whatever happens after this? The Western world cannot be totally dissociated from the consequence. The case of Samuel Kanyon Doe the 21st President of Liberia still echoes in history. He was forcefully removed and assassinated in 1990. Foreign observers, international governmental bodies made it happen. According to Wikipedia 2011, “Doe attempted to legitimize his regime with a new constitution in 1984 and elections in 1985. As in the present case of Egypt, “…opposition to Doe’s rule increased…after the 1985 fraudulent election process a civil war began in December 1989. The rebels entered Liberia in bid to overthrow Doe. Doe's forces were defeated. In September 1990 Doe was captured, tortured, and killed.”
Enforcing the impeachment of Mubarak should come now! It must happen now! Greater pressure must come from all corners! International governmental bodies must arise. Should the Egyptian protest result in a civil war? Innocent lives will go down the six feet with Hosni Mubarak? Let the whole world speak!
