WHAT WILL BECOME OF EGYPT POST-MUBARAK?

Barry Rubin talks about the state of Egypt under undemocratic president Hosni Mubarak, who's now about 80 years old. The question is - how much longer can he continue? And, better still, what'll happen when's gone?

Even now, there's every sign that relations with Egypt, as well as that country's own stability, are withering away, and that the Muslim Brotherhood is rising in the background. The fallout will be coming one day.

Update: in a related item, the British reporter and author John R. Bradley says in an interview on Front Page Mag (via The American Thinker) that there could come a revolution in Egypt very soon, and that the next 2 years will be important to take note of.
