he sg seems you have an agenda here. with all respect for hoov, i brought the same issue up right after vancouver and you didn't response the same way. you responded by defending smith. it seems to me you talk from both sides of your mouth - like smith.
and as you might know, your smith connection to egypt was going on for over 30 years.
the usa paying mubarack about almost $2 bill a year to keep him and the army in power, that was what created the eventual uproar. people tried to change that for years and years through politicks but mubarack didn't listen at all and kept on going , the arogant bastard he was being backed up by the usa money and in return he was their lackey in the region. egypt being responsable for the genocide in palestine as well, just on the other side of the area. so the sytem of power was creating the unrest, not the people, which are mostly decent and hardworking. 80 mill of them.
don't know if you ever have been to egypt, probably not because then you wouldn't have made the comparison, i was there about two months ago for the last time, that social movement was long overdue the circumstances were horrible for the ordinairy man.
seeing any analogue here?
it is time smith steps down as a ceo, in fact that is way overdue and you are on mubaracks side.
