Today we are all Egyptian.

Alhumdelah. Mubarak and his friends have listened to the 18-days worth of protests. The army will take over, and oversee a hopefully peaceful transition of power and reform. Let us hope that Egyptians will have the opportunity to actively and substantially support the change in their country. Let us hope that results of this change will be recognised by the international stakeholders (i.e. what happened in Gaza/West Bank elections). Let us hope they get what they have sacrificed for (and that we leave them alone to do it).

But for now, let us celebrate with Egyptians. They have shown us a fine example of peaceful activism to bring about change. Something we can learn from. Today we are all Egyptians.
