a good sign

A good sign of change in Egypt is that proceedings of the Egyptian parliament have become interesting.  Normally, no one would watch a minute of the Mubarak parliament or the Asad parliament.  This explains why many Arabs know so much about Lebanese politics: because they have real fights and real arguments and there is more than one point of view.  I was watching a fight between the speaker of the Egyptian parliament and a Salafite member.  I just wish that they came to blows.
