What exactly are Mubarak’s crimes, according to the protesters? Heard a guy talking on the news, saying he should be taken to court and held accountable for his crimes... which are? Just curious... haven’t kept up with this very well.

I may need to revisit my discounting of a possible Egyptian civil war.

Obama deliberately did zip to help the Iranians gain freedom ...

But he has managed to royally screw up a most important ally, in what, less than a week?

I think you give him too much credit.
If he has anything to do with it, it's indirectly, by being and portraying America as too weak.

I bet he cries himself to sleep at night, the little turd.
