Egypt Unrest: Monarchy Best Solution



Omnis anima potestatibus sublimioribus subdita sit. Non est enim potestas nisi a Deo; quae autem sunt, a Deo ordinatae sunt. (Romans 13:1)

BBC News reports Egyptian police have clashed with thousands of protesters demanding the resignation of President Hosni Mubarak in Cairo for a fourth consecutive day.

The French government said it had received reports that four French journalists covering the protests in Cairo had been arrested.

There were also reports of clashes between protesters and police in Alexandria, Suez, Mansoura and Aswan, as well as Minya and Assiut south of Cairo, and al-Arish in the Sinai peninsula.

President Hosni Mubarak, 82, has been in office since 1981.

The problem with every Republic is that the President is an Absolute Monarch.

In Egypt, President Hosni Mubarak also wants his son to succeed him as supreme Egyptian leader.

Every Republic always ends up as family business, compare with the Kennedy and Bush families in the U.S.

The difference with a Monarchy is that the Royal family lacks political power.

Since I am Swedish, I am Monarchist.

I believe the Constitutional Monarch has no other right than to shut up and represent the people.

The Swedish King has for example no right to vote and no right to speak his personal opinion regarding any political question.

Democracy could never be better protected.

It is always wrong when the Head of State of your nation gets any political power.

I abhor Absolute Monarchy and that is why I hate the idea of Republic.

A King has only one right and one duty, and that is to shut up.

He is only there to represent his nation and to help business and that is all.

In a Democracy the people decide.

In a Republic someone else decides for the people - which is extremely undemocratic.

Every Republic will always end up as a corrupt family business.

The Egyptian people wants democracy and therefore it deserves a King.

Egypt needs a Constitutional Pharaoh, who represents the people and makes sure that there is a democratically elected Parliament, which puts an appropriate Government and Prime Minister in place for all political decisions, until the people wants change at a general election.

"Omnes honorate, fraternitatem diligite, Deum timete, regem honorificate", 1 Peter 2:17.
