It looks like Globocop has has settled for Omar "the Torturer" Suleiman as the next brutaliser of the Egyptian people, sidelining Mohammed "Who?" el Baradi'i. This brings them in line with the Israelis and Mubarak himself. So all that is needed for completion of the "orderly transition" is a stick of dynamite under Mubarak's tochus (literally or metaphorically), and a restoration of order, i.e., a small scale bloodbath and a round-up and disappearance of the more vocal dissidents.
Then Washington will be happy, Tel Aviv will be happy, and the Egyptian people will fall silent. Their silence will be interpreted as contentment.
