Youth Revolt in Egypt, a Country at the Turning Point
(2011) Egyptians know some dates by heart: July 26, 1952, marks the overthrow of Egypt's last monarch; Oct. 6, 1973, is the date of the country's attack to reclaim the Sinai Peninsula. Now another date can be added to that list: Jan. 25, 2011, the first day of antigovernment protests that led to President Hosni Mubarak's resignation 18 days later.
