Egypt is protesting...they want new government...some of those protesters want a Islamic one, and are headed by the Muslim Brotherhood..who in the past has been tied to terror attacks and assignations...Others more secular, and just want democracy and a end to years of dictatorship The Leaders have been good to the US, and very helpful on the war on terror and are viewed as key US allies.
Should we support Democracy and the overthrow of leadership even if it means we could end up with alot less help on security or even a nation hostile to the US?
Should we support our allies, even if it means saying no to Democracy as we know who could possibly win and that could be worse?
is our Long term security helped by pushing out these old rulers and helping democratic reform even though short term it could make things worse?
