More Turmoil in Egypt

Ten people died in Cairo, Egypt today as a part of the demonstrations that Egypt's military government hand over their power to the people. The EU's foreign policy chief condemned the violence that continues to take place inside of Egypt. According to a statement read on Egyptian state television the current government is commited to holding the scheduled elections on time. The frustration of the Egyptian people is quite clear and I wonder how much longer it will be until a stable government that the people approve of is in place. It does seem that Egypt is on a path to path to froming a democracy. Hopefully the interim government allows for this to take place.
