They either have to accept the current situation - or fight for freedom.

Remember, when Mubarak seize power in 1981 he promised he would only rule for one term ! So much for his promises ! When September comes will the situation to be "too fragile" for him to step down ?

Those who financed, armed, and encourage the dictatorship to oppress its people (the same ones who did the same for Saddam - till he refused to kow-tow !)
