Congratulations Egypt, Congratulations Egyptians - you have done it. Hats off to you. Your perseverance, your unity, your belief, your sacrifice of limb and of life has triumphed over tyranny and over repression that you have had to bear for decades.
You have helped reaffirm humanity's faith in revolution, so thank you for that. You have given the rest of the world a lesson in non-violent activism and civil-disobedience, and how these time tested forms of protest are still as useful as ever, so thank you for that. You have also secured the beacon of hope, even if it is just for a little while longer, for people living under autocratic, theocratic, dictatorial and other oppressive regimes around the world, so thank you for that.
But, please be aware that this is just the beginning, the beginning of your journey to become a prosperous Egypt, the beginning of your journey to become an Egypt that is a role model for rest of the strife torn middle-east. So be smart about how you chart the path to your future. Come what may, do not let go of your unity and your belief.
Egypt and Egyptians, you rock. May the force be with you, for ever and ever.
