What to do for Egypt

The 'us and Egypt, Egypt and Italy, and the Egyptians who are in our midst. And many of us who were in Egypt. How exciting these days, as always when you realize that a big bend of history passes in front of you. And the masses have a role. What an angry look on Friday night live on TV in Italian, and find the best or most of our Tg, Tg 3, Bianca Berlinguer speaks of Minetti Aldo Busi and a journalist with Il Tempo.

I must try to understand the CNN. Obama rushes to speak in person: face clean, but we understand that the U.S. will have fear. What about us? We can relate to this enormous revolution only declining uncertain myriad of jokes around the theme "Mubarak's nephew." Also I like these jokes, I make the kids in the Egyptian kebab.

But I want to live and live what is happening with some minimal opportunity to participate. The extraordinary spectacle is that of soldiers and tanks in the crowd, and protesters who courted them. The heads of the army sit still with Mubarak, but do not give orders to soldiers to enforce the curfew.

But this can not last, with the army to act as a buffer. In a few days or a few hours the army will break (unlikely) or choose a side. Or shoot the demonstrators who fraternized with the soldiers (unlikely) or accompany Mubarak exile. At that point I do not think that people acclamerà Suleiman.

We do? I wish some of our politicians (I say this not in a good way qualunquistico) took the word and made proposals. Despite the Ruby case we are a democracy important Mediterranean. We invest in a sustainable and democratic North Africa. There are no more trenches or embankments against fundamentalist hostility.

I know it's short, but just to start with one thing: now allocate 5 million for scholarships for Egyptian Tunisian etc on the topics of democratic governance and sustainable administration. We now give the floor to those who have proposed. It is not just solidarity. Our future may depend more on Cairo from Arcore.
