Coin or Cube?

Are the 2 extreme slogans in Egypt, namely: 
كرهناكى يا ثوره and يسقط حكم العسكر 
two sides of the same coin? Or are they twos sides of a cube? Should people toss a coin or throw a die for determining where things need to be heading for the welfare of the masses and the nation?
The meters in the nation's proverbial dashboard are indicating numerous alerts, and yet the proponents of the above 2 extreme factions are selectively looking at what they prefer to follow. Would you be safe driving a car where you only pay attention to one meter on the dashboard and ignoring the rest?

Coin or cube? A nation's future should not be subjected to a gambling/probability approach.
