I think it is normal human behavior that then become, get maybe used or abused or taken advantage of by other powers and then the conspiracy starts. But at the time, The Arab Spring didn't start in Egypt, it started in Tunisia.

And Ben Ali was a dictator in Tunisia for about 20 years, and they removed him. So suddenly it was kind of like a domino effect. So then Egypt started, and it just took 18 days. And, you know, people, hindsight is 20-20. Saints said, like, you know, just Mubarak became like a burden on the military, because the military are the real rulers of the country.

You might have a president that kind of like have certain powers, but at the end of the day, when the military sees that a certain president is like too much of a burden, too much of like a...
