Successor???
So,
There's not much out there in the news broadcasts about Amr Moussa; except that he will "quit his post as Secretary General of the Arab League within weeks". In other words he won't seek re-appointment when his current term ends in two months I think...
Amr Moussa - Former Egyptian Foreign Minister and said Mubarak loyalist paid a visit to the protestors in Tahrir Square in a 'show of solidarity'.
The UN apparently see Moussa as a viable alternative (huh - who cares what the UN thinks - toothless tigers)...
There is Mohamed ElBaradei of course...but somehow I think the people are looking for something else, something more, someone new...
On another note...a lot of these protestors who are indeed the 'unemployed youth' are out there cleaning up the Square and the City. Interesting that in everything I've read the younger ones (in their 20s) think it's time to go home and put their faith in the army, whilst some of the older protestors have vowed to stay camped in the Square until democracy is truly delivered...who is the more wise I wonder?
