What do I think when it comes to the ongoing revolution in Egypt. And I'm not talking about the current state of the country; I'm mostly referring to initiating factors of the revolution itself. Many people thought that Hosni Mubarak just stole money from the country and that was it; now, that is true to a certain extant, however Mubarak and his gang surely performed much more actions than just stealing from the countries' wealth. However I will soon elaborate on the wealth robbing.
What kind of things did Mubarak and his gang do? I'll let you know that they operated like a criminal organization; performing acts such as bribery, murder, theft, and much more. Bribery? Yes. They would bribe known judges and high officials around the country because court cases that could potentially expose these men would reach them instantly. Also, they would rob the country of it's money. They stole so much money that was supposed to be invested back in the country. This money that was robbed was among the main reasons why there is such a high poverty rate in the country. I have also noticed that even today, Egypt bears a considerable amounts of wealth, however Mubarak's corruption and the government had trouble distributing that wealth evenly. Either you have some of the richest people in the world, or you will have the people who can't afford to buy bread. All of the people that receive good amounts of money have some sort of connection to Mubarak somehow. It may not be a direct connection, however they may be connected to someone connected to him. It's like a chain; one that eventually will lead to Mubarak. However you can always trace this chain back to the people somehow.
Murder. Mubarak and his gang operated the police force as if they were gangsters. They loved to kill for some reason or another. I realized that many people died because of the police force and that there was nobody to stop them because the only people who could, were the ones making them do it. Mubarak's corrupt government also had this thing for arresting the knowledgeable in Egypt. Not necessarily every smart person, but those who seemed to be a form of danger to him. I realized that Egypt has many knowledgeable people that operate at international levels, however most of them don't live in Egypt. This is because they either are afraid of being arrested if they went back, or that they just have a better opportunity elsewhere, however still representing Egypt.
The government was in the worst shape it had been. People finally realized that they didn't need to bear this burden anymore and soon they all formed this...
