Former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak was been declared clinically dead. The 84-year-old politician reportedly suffered a stroke Tuesday morning, just a few weeks after receiving a life sentence for the deaths caused last year by Arab Spring protests against his prolonged presidency. Within hours, Mubarak was pronounced clinically dead. He's still on life support, but not likely to recover.
Initially, Reuters was told by the military that they could not use the term "clinically dead" because he was being kept alive. One source described his condition as "completely unconscious ... using artificial respiration." However, it was enough to elicit "cheering and fireworks" in Tahrir Square, USA Today reports. Does it sound like Mubarak can be put to rest, or should doctors keep working on him?

...don't you think??? LOL
Frankly, I'm surprised noone from the opposition hasn't burst in and done it already or for that matter that he was put on life support at all.
wow.
you really are out of ideas on your side, aren't you?
The bizarre and massive mistake I see from analyses from these United States is- that Egyptians are some monolithic vote on any issue anywhere, anytime.
Maybe you have some insight into the political views of the 82 million Egyptians you speak for?
No?
Spend one day of your life on twitter- follow #jan25- the revolution's feed-
then tell me about what the Egyptian people are telling us.
Trust me- you've never seen political battles like this.
Now- back to the average uninformed and mindlessly judgmental Conservative American view from Sodahead- on this issue.
Terri Schiavo.
Now tel me about how the right, loves the Constitution. How son they forget.

I speculate only based on how unusual it is to keep a deposed ruler alive in any such case.
And I've no interest in trying to defend hypocrisy from anyone, of any political orientation. I think we've touched that subject before...
But thank you for the Twitter hashtag. I'll make use of it.
The Sudan is revolting-

And if you think the "masses" had no impact on deposing Mubarak- you have not been paying attention for the past 2 years.
As you mentioned, the situation worries Zionists (and other neocons). Which is probably good reason for it to worry other Americans.
