Freedom in Egypt means Freedom for Vandalism to Muslim Brotherhood

Thousands of Egyptian university students have demonstrated angrily against the government, in the largest such protest yet to be staged.

The students - mostly from the Muslim Brotherhood movement - marched at five campuses in Cairo and the Nile Delta. Hundreds of police prevented them from taking their protests outside university gates onto the streets. To vent their anger some of them burnt an effigy of President Bush. We do not see the connection behind this act, as they need to be grateful to President Bush for having made possible multi-party elections in Egypt. But it seems that gratitude to an infidel is not a Muslim trait!
