What you are failing to recognize is that the revolutionaries in Egypt DO love democracy! They fought for democracy. They wanted democracy. No one thought to ask what kind of democracy they wanted. In this part of the world, brutal dictators are replaced by brutal dictators. Hosni Mubarak was a brutal dictator. He kept the peace by using brutality. Christians lived mostly in peace with some random violent acts. There was a treaty with Israel. The nations heritage was secured. The Egyptians wanted to replace his brutality with another brutality but one that let them slaughter the Christians, tear up the treaty and destroy the unislamic artifacts of the ancients.
