Making sense of what's happening in Egypt in light of End-Time prophecy

In February, Egypt's President Hosni Mubarak was overthrown in an uprising. Despite being a strongman, under his rulership, Egypt was an ally of Israel. It will be interesting to see what next for Egypt, now that he is no longer in power. In Isaiah 19, there is a verse that speaks of Egypt's redemptive place in God's plan. What is notable is that God calls Egypt "my people" and it says that Egypt and Assyria will worship together with Israel the third.

In that day there will be a highway from Egypt to Assyria. The Assyrians will go to Egypt and the Egyptians to Assyria. The Egyptians and Assyrians will worship together. 24 In that day Israel will be the third, along with Egypt and Assyria, a blessing[b] on the earth. 25 The LORD Almighty will bless them, saying, “Blessed be Egypt my people, Assyria my handiwork, and Israel my inheritance.” (Isaiah 19:23-25)
