Can Mubarak weather a perfect storm?
Jack Shenker has a new article that includes an interview with me:
Unanimously now, whenever protesters get together, you’ll find their first chants are against Mubarak. Whenever anything happens with Palestine and Israel, the strongest impact is here in Egypt. It’s very ironic: we have the most treacherous regime when it comes to the Palestinian cause – Mubarak is America’s most senior thug in the region – and yet the people of Egypt are among the most sympathetic you can find in terms of the Palestinians, because they can understand the correlations between the Palestinian issue and their own situation.
