Check out Big Pharaoh's latest post. He's got a great Q&A about what the average Egyptian thinks about various issues. Some samples:
Are there any militia-type "enforcers" from the Muslim Brotherhood or similar groups making sure disagreement is punished?
No, you won’t find someone with a stick hitting any unveiled girl he sees. However, such things might happen on a very small scale in rural areas where the government’s grip is looser.
Is the standard of living in Egypt rising or falling?
London Bridge is falling down falling down. It was rising in the mid 90s, but currently recession and unemployment are having a party.
How does Egypt combat terrorism and the hardliners that promote it? Or does Egypt even bother with it aside from saying they do?
You know Abu Ghraib? Multiply is by 1 million and you get the picture. Islamists are the government’s main opposition and they are not tolerated, period.
