#3 They have a different definition of freedom. As long as the state is "free," that is not controlled by an outside power, they're happy. That the citizen is the property of the state is the normal way of things.

#4 ...and now they're free to vote in the Muslim Brotherhood. Which will happen unless the Army stops it, much like Mubarak...

#6 Yusuf al-Qaradawi gave a speech in Tahrir Square today attended by 200,000 - the takeover of Egypt by the Muslim Brotherhood has begun. In the Arab world, "free" just means free to be led by the most inhumane religious fanatics.

#8 Unless you consider Snafu and Foobar to be states. In Arabic, it's spelled Fu'bar.
