Egypt Is Free!

Victory!                                                                                Suhaib Salem/Reuters

The people united will never be defeated! Today, the Egyptian people, freedom and human rights won over tyranny and autocratic rule.



Our hats off to the pro-democracy demonstrators who remained steadfast, nonviolent, dignified and united. The world will never be the same.

 Love this photo from 3 days after the peaceful revolution began. How could the army shoot their grand mas? Many are saying there was a movement inside the movement- the one for equality for women!
