I see in the Daily Mail today that Mubarak and his family have stashed away £25 billion over the last 30 years. Did he think he earned it all? Was there a salary as president? How much time was he spending on running Egypt and how much time was he in his counting house?
When the new democratic government comes in they should ask the rogue with the Just for Men hairdo where the cash is. The Swiss bankers have already got twitchy and put a stop on him writing cheques.
And is the US government going to stop the gravy train for the Egyptian military? How much of the US taxpayers' tax dollars have passed through Mubarak's chubby fingers?
It's going to be a summer of questions. I do hope the answers are easily understood!

Mubarak falls off the wall, with slight bump and heads for the beach!
I wonder what it must be like for a dictator's mindset. Over a million people crammed into a square all baying for your blood, the rest of the country wishing you'd clear off and your erstwhile cronies fingering their rubber daggers. It's ridicule, hatred, pity, distaste, indifference and much more all rolled into one for the people. But surely Mubarak didn't think anyone still thought him fit for the presidency? What on earth was going through his mind?
The only thing I can think is that politics for some is a cause for insanity. Are most of the world's leaders insane in some way or other? Berlusconi must have a few insanity cells in that numbskull of his. Anyway, Mubarak had enough mentality left to realise he'd be better off kicking the sand in Sharm El Sheikh than he would be studying the script for another TV broadcast to the nation!

And I wonder if the Americans are having sleepless nights. All this came about because of Wikileaks emboldening the Arab subjugates. Washington has paid billions into Mubarak's coffers, turning a blind eye and deaf ear to his regime's cruelty. They sound a bit jittery and nervous now he's gone. Could be that a democratic Egypt will reveal the nasty truth about renditions, special or monetary ones.

Mubarak is the dimmest man in the world!
Hosni Mubarak must be the dimmest man in the world. Virtually the whole of Egypt thinks he is past his sell-by-date for whatever reason. He thinks otherwise. Just on that level only he is not fit to be in power. Has he read history? If he hasn't he should be given a few good books to thumb through. His best bet is to go with a bit of dignity. Leave it any longer and he will be joining the likes of Mussolini in ignomy.
I saw John Kerry, erstwhile US presidential candidate who is in Davos, waxing on about Mubarak. His waffle and double speak did him no favours. Democrats should be democrats for all and not suggest that a tyrant can be tamed just to suit American foreign policy. On that note alone I'm glad John Kerry never got to be president.

Humpty Mubarak sat on a wall...
Humpty Mubarak had a great fall! Well, not quite yet, but he's going either tomorrow or some time soon. This erstwhile "friend" of theWest is nothing more than a nicely suited bully, keen on the old Stasi type tactics of whispering campaigns mixed in with a liberal amount of genital torture and iron bar bashing.
First Tunisia, now Egypt. I hope it ends with those thugs in Riyadh. All circling each other as the masses encroach on their evil empire.
Every person in the world deserves to live in peace and freedom. What is the Muslim greeting? Peace be upon you. Not much peace in Mubarak's peaceless piece of the world.
Humpty Mubarak will have a great fall!
