"Already we hear the predictable warnings from Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu: This could be Iran 1979, a revolution for freedom that installs the Islamists. But this is not 1979, and Egypt’s Facebook-adept youth are not lining up behind the Muslim Brotherhood, itself scarcely a band of fanatics.
Hope for the Middle East — and ultimately Israel — lies in Egyptian reform that would create the first peace between a Jewish and an Arab democracy." --Roger Cohen
If Egypt reforms, will Israel reform too? Or do they expect Egypt to change without Israel changing?

This look much more like 1989 to me. Lets pray it does not turn into a 1991.
