The Arab spring.........is it all over? The 'golden' 'morrow longed by a majority of the Egyptians is yet to turn up. Rife and uncertainty continue to be all pervading! Where 'o where is the democracy where freedom flourished?
.....The release of Hosni Mubarak, after his prison stay, is gonna take place tomorrow and no, it's not gonna make any difference as he's no political future. But many in the country would assume that his coming out of prison is akin to the rehabilitation of an old order that thrived during the six decades of military-backed rule! And for a few among them, even a reversal of the Arab spring, perhaps?
The military is in charge now and running the day to day affairs of the country. The turmoil that has been on for over seven weeks after the toppling of the Islamist President, Mohammed Morsi, shows no sign of abetting. The armed forces have been systematically going around to nab fundamentalists and guys with extremist leanings. Most of the top leadership of the radical 'Muslim Brotherhood' have been rounded up and put into prison.
The moderates, among the people, who'd greatly enhanced the strength of the thousands that were instrumental in pulling down the oppressive regime during the Arab spring of 2011, seem to be bewildered and confused as to what should be their future plan of action.
Have the deaths of the well meaning thousands during that period gone waste?
Why can't the moderates ensure that the small percent of people wedded to extremist ideology is thoroughly exposed and sidelined? That would be the most befitting tribute to the ones who'd willingly given up their lives at the Tahrir Square, in their quest for a free and dignified existence!
Tailpiece.
Let the warring parties sit at a negotiation table, thrash out their differences and provide the people the regime of their requirement!!
