If you want to understand the Egyptian uprising and how U.S. officials should respond, let me take you back to the pro-democracy demonstrations I witnessed in Cairo in 2005.Middle-class protesters went to the streets then, too, demanding free elections. But the government of President Hosni Mubarak - tarring all opposition as radical Islamists - surrounded them with police in Darth Vader helmets and shields.
