The economic damage this is causing Egypt may be be impossible to recover from. There's much more at stake for the average citizen than these protests and skirmishes. Perhaps "collapse the system from within" is the unseen strategy at work. Artificially amplified hunger and water shortages may soon follow... just in time for a savior to emerge. The ripple effect among Egypt's neighbors is equally alarming. My bet is on the unseen hand.

The Egyptian economy was already in shambles. They had 40% unemployment... that's almost double ours from the Great Depression. There's no unseen hand here. A shit economy means everyone under 30 basically has no income or hope of any, an oppressive regime ensures no one can complain about the fact everyone under 30 has no job, and the fact they see the youth empowering themselves elsewhere using non-state controlled technology which didn't exist a decade ago all cumulate to empower those previously without.
