NILE REVOLUTION

Egypt is on the boil after a successful public revolution uprooted the ossified dictator in Tunisia. Another revolution became inevitable, when the Egyptian Army announced that they will not use force against the peaceful protesters, who assembled at the Tharir Squire demanding the resignation of president rang the death knell for Mubarak’s regime. In other words Egyptian Army respected and acknowledging the legitimate right of the people so for didn’t become the hurdle in overthrowing Hosni Mubarak. Many political thinkers are of the view that these peaceful public upsurges are the wakeup call for the rest of autocratic regimes in the Arab world. If they don’t take immediate steps like giving people the basic democratic rights, justice and prosperity then the popular public wind will swallow them all. Nobody is going to save them even their all weather friends can’t do anything. Once the close friend of America and European Union are bowing before the public pressure. Mubarak, an extension of autocratic regimes like Anwar Sadat Gamal Abdel Nasser, was once America’s convenient tool and now the dangerous embarrassment for them. Hosni Mubarak’s hostile attitude towards the oppressed Palestinians and toeing the line of Israel made him one of the most notorious dictators in the Arab world. The peace treaty with the Israel cemented his status as a leading U.S friend in the region. His involvement in the political assassinations of his opponents including the leaders of Muslim brotherhood party further widens the gap between the subjects and ruler. The people of both the countries lead a life of political suffocations under these regimes. The rise in the inflation, unemployment and poverty in the Egypt as well in Tunisia added fuel to the burning.  The immediate transition of power in the Arab world is the need of hour otherwise chaos and confusion will engulf the whole region which will further alienate and divide the Muslim world. History is a best teacher that is what people say and believe it teaches us that neither can you quell the sentiments nor aspirations through the constitutional powers or by the might of military power at last you to accept the hard reality. The use of police thugs and other criminals to attack the peaceful protestors will not yield anything for Hosni Mubarak but will spread anarchy in the Egypt. Only his step-down from his post can heal all the wounds which most of the Egyptians has gone through under his repressive regime.
