I've Been Thinking:
An Egyptian judge lifted a travel ban on 7 of the 16 Americans who have been charged with numerous crimes including receiving external money to foment anti-government politics.
A charter plane waited to whisk the Americans out of Egypt and far from the grasp of anyone deciding to overturn the decision.
Included in the group of seven was Sam LaHood, son of Ray LaHood the current Secretary of Transportation in the Obama Administration.
The decision on Sunday to adjourn the trial until June and now this decision to release some of the prisoners should be taken as hopeful signs for the remaining Americans.
Unfortunately, it does not bode well for those 27 Egyptians who were employed by the American NGOs and are still being held prisoner.
