PROTESTING AND UPHEAVAL IN EGYPT - WILL MUBARAK HAVE TO RESIGN AND OR FLEE ?...........

Having been awake and dressed since 6:20 am, and having rolled myself personally to and from the Dining Room for breakfast, and now back in my room, awaiting Occuptionalin the next 20 -80 minutes, I am watching U.S. Secreary of State Hillary Clinton on CNN's "State of the Union", with Candy Crowley, one of the five Sunday news talk show, she is appearing on today regarding the revolt crisis occurring this Day 7, in Egypt in opposition to 30 year Dictator, Hosni Mubarak. Diplomatically and strategically this is a Catch 22 occurrence for the American government. As our chief ally and peace process partner, in defense of Israel, for more than thirty years, we cannot simply disavow or force Mubarak from power, but the Obama Administration needs to work assidiously for a free and open election for President of Egypt, which the Mubarak government must honestly accept, whatever the outcome, and seriously contemplate the end of his three decade regime and step down, allowing for a more tolerable and acceptable leadership for the Egyptian People. "Consent not Coercion", in President Obama's words are key to resolving the protests and providing for free and open elections, that President Mubarak and all parties must abide by, After thirty years in control of Egpyt, despite the moderating Middle East influence he has been, the time for stepping down and allowing for a proper transition of power, as the average 24 year Egyptians are not likely to settle for yes..........With Prayers And Optimism For The Outcome The Egyptian People Deserve In Freedom And Justice, Fr.
