Jamal Mubarak Laughed at Egyptian Internet Activists

Feb 14

You really can’t make this stuff up.  Here is Jamal Mubarak at an NDP press conference in which he is asked about potential political opposition groups that could serve as interlocutors for the people, and he dismisses them with little more than a contemptuous laugh.  That contempt and smugness, however, provided the previous regime with the conviction that it was completely unaccountable to the Egyptian people.  The regime’s arrogance was ultimately for its downfall; unfortunately, it also produced the colossal policy failures which will burden the Egyptian people for years to come.
