Today we are all Egyptians

Been sitting all day at my local library, using the wireless internet and watching the live feed of Al Jazeera English which has been showing the jubilation of Egyptians in Cairo at the resignation of President Hosni Mubarak. Celebrations have also been going on other parts of the Middle East, Obama has said some good words, in spite of not having previously called for Mubarak to step down. Today is a relatively good day for the world, and I find myself quite moved, and happy and proud for the Egyptian people.

Congratulations on your victory, people of Egypt, and know that we here and everywhere share your happiness, and are inspired by your example, and keep partying.
