    We are seeing the iron fist that has oppressed the Egyptian people for thirty years. If the regime does not stand down, it is clear that we must make of them a pariah regime, like that of South Africa before President Mandela. Boycott Egyptian cotton and other products; divest of Egyptian securities; end foreign aid.
