Egypt and a new social order -- and social media

Although the military is in the mix (at least hopefully only) until elections are held, the fact that the Egyptian people have been able to achieve a peaceful, non-violent revolution, coupled with the role that Egypt plays as a model for many countries of the middle east, is a huge, huge step. If the Egyptian people can in fact preserve freedom and keep sharia in its place, this could be a huge moment, not just for Egypt but for all of the countries of Al Jazeera ("the island" -- the Arabian peninsula)..in fact, a really huge moment, not unlike the fall of the Berlin Wall.

The world will congratulate the Egyptian people and watch hopefully for the future. And G-d bless Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook and Jack Dorsey, Evan Williams and Biz Stone of Twitter, and this amazing new world of computers, social media and communications..let freedom ring.
