No more Strongmen in Africa?

The whole world saw what happened two days ago during the trial of the former Egyptian president, Hosni Mubarak and his two sons Alaa and Gamal, and his former Interior Minister. The pictures shown to the world was very embarrassing and disgraceful, but Mubarak could have avoided that spectacle. Why couldn't the Military authorities in Egypt wait till the former strongman recover before trying him. He is being accused of ordering his security forces to shoot the protestors at the Tahir Square. But as usual, he and his sons pleaded not guilty. I never dreamt of seeing this strongman in such an embarrassing spectacle. He was caged like an animal and also this trial is meant to disgrace him.  I hope this sordid ordeal Mubarak is going through is being taken as a lesson by the remaining strong men on the African continent, because their law states that if Mubarak is found guilty, he will face the death penalty, and that will be to the extreme. He has now been reduced to the status of a common Egyptian fellahin, what a shame? The man was lying on his sick bed and was put in a cage behind bars. I did not see his wife in the video, where was she? The whole world is watching with keen eyes the unfolding drama in Egypt. What will the outcome be? Mubarak's supporters will not take it kindly if he is to be sentenced to death, because this might serve as  a catalyst for future trouble in Egypt. How have the mighty fallen? The strongmen in Africa should beware, because it will soon be their turn. Did i hear the president of Equatorial Guinea say at his country's independence day parade that he will leave office when his people are tired of him? He should be careful about what he says, because his people will soon be tired of him and he will not like the situation he will find himself in.
