President Hosni Mubarak will meet the demands of protesters, military and ruling party officials said Thursday in the strongest indication yet that Egypt’s longtime president may be about to give up power and that the armed forces were seizing control.

Gen. Hassan al-Roueini, military commander for the Cairo area, told thousands of protesters in central Tahrir Square, “All your demands will be met today.” Some in the crowd held up their hands in V-for-victory signs, shouting “Allahu akbar,” or “God is great,” a victory cry used by secular and religious people alike.

Yeah, those secular people.

Interesting. This could go Islamic or Secular.

“All your demands will be met today.” The executions start tomorrow.

The only chance that Egypt has of avoiding becoming an Iranian satellite state is the army.

The military had to get a treaty worked out with the MB. It took a week or so. Look for the police in Egypt to start vanishing without a trace(killed). The MB will slowly take over the police function. A deal had to be struck.

US aid will be split, 70/30, with the 30% going to the MB police.

Never mind... I think I mis-read the headline...

MB has about 30%. I think the military will maintain order.

Now Israel says he is out

This is FAR beyond Carter’s incompetence.

To help Obama, the Weather Underground,
and the Moslem Brotherhood,
the MSM have encouraged the Egyptian military
to act OUTSIDE OF THE EGYPTIAN CONSTITUTION.

Wow.

How many Constitutions has the Undocumented Imam
now overturned? Did Kenya have one earlier?

Was the US Constitution not the first he destroyed?
It certainly was not the last one.

Need to watch the rest of the Middle East now...our opportunity to learn anything from Eqypt situation has now passed.

This is not going to end well - for anyone.

[blackdog]

The military needs a local intelligence network in the neighborhoods and the places of worship(5 times a day). That will be the MB.

[blackdog]

Remember, our definition of order is much different than Islam. Order and peace there means mass organized demonstrations daily to kill jews and western alliances, and constant war with Israel is peace.

[mrsmith]

Excellent summary.

The important thing for America- from Obama’s point of view- is that Islamification shouldn’t happen until after the 2012 elections.

Then the deluge.

“Allahu akbar,” or “God is great,” a victory cry used by secular and religious people alike.

Uh...sure. Nice try, lapdog media.

“Allahu akbar,” or “God is great,” a victory cry used by secular and religious people alike.

Uh, no. Egypt is a country where 84% of the populace believes that anyone who leaves the Muslim religion should receive the death penalty. The chances of this going "secular" is miniscule.
