Former president Hosni Mubarak is reported to be in poor (or poorer really) health after his sentencing to life in prison was delivered for the deaths of protesters in the Egyptian Revolution.
the Egyptian people have protested, seeing this as his attempts to get off on the basis of leniency. Meanwhile, the Muslim Brotherhood is rallying an absolutely anti-military campaign with their candidate, Mohammed Morsi, who is to run against the former air force chief, Ahmed Shafiq.
personally, i think that Mubarak is definitely trying to loosen up his prison sentence; but at the same time, he's an 84 year old sick man, who's going to probably die soon anyways. The people protesting against his release should realize this, and know that either way, he's not expecting a life of comfort or anything.
