This past Friday I attended the "Anti-Mubarak" rally in front of JustUs. The reasoning of the younger people addressing the crowd that I heard was basically the same as this cartoon: uninstall Mubarak and then the obstacle blocking freedom in Egypt will be gone. Whoa, hold on. Didn't Omar Suleiman accept the Muslim Brotherhood as part of the ongoing negotiations? The same group that is known to be associated with the the assassination of Anwar Sadat? Perhaps what Egypt needs to do is wipe its hard drive.

This is a good point - one person is never the whole problem, one corrupt politician has to be backed up by an entire corrupt government to succeed.
