The article "exhilarated by hope in Cairo" by Nicholas kristoff is about the struggle for freedom and democracy Egypt. It basically points out the peoples opinions and what they think should be done. It also points out the behavioral tendencies of the people and militia in Cairo. This article tells about the want for change and equal opportunity in the election.
Egypt is fed up with having the same president. They feel that Egypt should be a democracy like the united states and have open elections. Because the president wont step down they feel the need to protest. Usually protest is stopped by force from the military but in this case the military is on the side of the people. They set up checkpoints every hundred yards so nothing bad gets in or out. I think that's good because most demonstrations of freedom in the past were stopped by tear gas or some type of brutal force. I think Cairo will come out ahead in this fight for freedom.
