after seeing the people in libya wanting to declare an islamic state, and the people in egypt not even considering erdogan's proposal for a secular state. suddenly I am not too excited about these revolutions. in libya and egypt they would have replaced one dictatorship with another, and bye bye whatever secularism and human rights and women's rights and freedom of theater that existed in mubarak's days.
