I don't think that you can possibly compare arresting crazed muslims who plot to assassinate you and take over the country to any possible scenario you might have in your head.
Mubarak did what he had to do to keep order in a country that is targeted by Muslim extremists for takeover.
Here in the U.S., we have one of every 200 people in jail.
For anybody in this country to point fingers at any other country for how many people they have in jail for ANY reason is just plain out hypocrisy.
We need to fix our own govt. and get our citizens out of jail...we are all potential "customers" for the giant prison industrial corporations.
And our police and judicial system has become nothing more than a way to feed the beast.
That was my point.
Our govt. ALWAYS claims that other countries have people in jail for "disagreeing" with their govt.
But here in America, I KNOW we never get the full story. Our media doesn't report accurately at home...and is especially inaccurate about news from other countries.
I'm sure you've traveled enough around the world to have seen that with your own eyes at this point.
