When the protests in Egypt against President Hosni Mubarak first started increasing in intensity, I thought — this could be like Iran 1979.
Turns out I'm not alone — former President Jimmy Carer, who is certainly in a position to remember Iran and the Shah's fall, agrees that Mubarak is eventually likely to go.
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
