I'm willing to bet that most people in the Middle East dream of electing their own president who won't imprison or execute them for thinking differently and don't care about who the US president is; all they know is that he is responsible for their misery because of their desire for "stability".
This is finally a chance for Egypt (one of the longest-existing civilizations) to elect a leader who the people choose. It's sad that people qualify that with 'as long as it's who we want'.

Agreed. Similarly, to imply that the USA's foreign policy has nothing to do with fundamentalist and in fact any kind of terror, is equally assinine.
