We hate the injustice that happens in Egypt, and forget that we are producers of the very same injustice. We are not evil persons, we just become unjust unconciously.
This is the way it happens:
Step 1: You experience the injustice in many every-day situations. For example, the government raises fuel prices, merchants raise prices of consumption goods, bad treatment, and pushes in the street.
Step 2: The idea of "my rights are denied in this society" starts to dominate your head. You determine that it's time for you to fight to get your lost rights.
Step 3: For some reason, you think that anything you would like to do or take is a compensation for your lost rights; hence it's your right (and you forget that you are taking the compensation from the wrong person).
The take-home message I'm trying to make here is: think twice before doing anything that you don't "apparently" have the right to do, because you could be unjust against innocent people.
