CAIRO — The core issue in Egypt can be boiled down to this: are we witnessing Tehran 1979 or Berlin 1989?Is this a broad uprising against dictatorship whose goal of democratic freedom will be usurped by organized Islamists, as in the Iranian revolution? Or is this the end of the Arab Jurassic Park where, from Yemen to Tunisia, aging despots have ruled, and the start of a democratic flowering as world-changing as the collapse of the Soviet empire?
