I'll watch and wait. :) Have been since the women called for a march for the rights of women just after whosit fell and their brothers didn't show up and left them to be beaten and abused by both thugs and the military on their own. And then it happened to the Coptics when they stood up for their voice and rights. Yes, I think of after the Civil War when it was "agreed" that women would drop their fight for the vote at that time so that all men could have the right, cause ya know... that'd just be a step so far for dudes to deal with. Something that is almost a given is that after a revolution for freedom, some men will take over from the men gotten rid of and women will be in the same ol same ol situation. As to Pakistan, it's sad what they've become. I can understand the reasoning for the creation of the country. The man who spear headed had some great ideas. But here they are now. And it grows worse and worse for women there, and for Sufis and others. In that way, Libya is maybe showing the way for some countries. If enough of the citizens aren't willing to stand for the abuse and restrictions of a Salafist or such minority, they have to get together and push back.
