Its a clean advice just in case and I guess you didn't get it right!

Well I hope you consider your words before saying it loudly
Yesterday was the anniversary of the Egyptian revolution - The assembly was really civilized and honorable - did not occur any violations - demonstrators were peaceful - some political parties announced a vigil until next Friday - I hope that God protects Egypt and its people

Hi, I have recently published my novel, A Military Republic, as an ebook on amazon, smashwords, and other retailers. It is based on the events that led to the Egyptian revolution. I am Egyptian and I believe that my novel offers an insight into Egyptian problems before the revolution, and the oppressed Egyptian everyday life. I have added a couple of links below. I look forward to getting your comments and reviews. Thank you
