24. I said all along...
that the military would demand a veto vote on any new government. Their business interests are too numerous and lucrative to not have a direct say in the running of the country. And I also said the military would mostly sit on it's back sides and let the revolution happen. The bloodshed was minimal compared to what's happening in Syria or Iran. And the Libyan experience was vastly different that what happened to Egypt. Nothing come out of Egypt is surprising in the least.
