Do you think it might be time to start thread #3?

raising my hand in approval. Though the decision will lay elsewhere.

I haven't hot-linked to this, but I post it to all to remind folks of this one thing that Mubarak, in all his ruthlessness, did for US interests and the treaty with Israel: "WikiLeaks cables: Egypt 'turned down' black-market nuclear weapons deal

Cairo's ambassador to the UN claimed President Mubarak said no to offer of atomic weapons from ex-Soviet state"

I cannot stand the sound of his voice, I’m sure that I am not alone. Because of his position I am compelled to listen to the next turn down the path toward hell he will pave.

MB is known for their ruthlessness. Wonder if they were successful in setting up another go around? Another thing to not worry about /s

from obama's statement, key phrase?....

revising the Constitution and other laws to demonstrate irreversible change

strange choice of words? Looking more and more like a statement to more people, and countries, including the United States than simply Egypt....mho

Ahmad Abu Al-Gheit-”We haven’t seen any dams blocking the water. The river continues to flow”

My interpretation is the money will continue to flow, despite the clucking from omuzzie. In other words, he doesn’t have the brass to stop it.

Ahmad Abu Al-Gheit-”It got to the point that whoever wants to gain points in his own country, and to give a show back home that he is a progressive-leftist-democrat-whatever, makes such statements.”

Need anyone say anymore?

@cnnbrk: #Egypt Ambassador Shoukry: #Mubarak ceded control of military to VP Suleiman http://on.cnn.com/f9CPes

Pretty clever. The military stands with Suleiman or goes rogue.

I watched Brett's special panel of experts. Wolfowitz made the least sense to me. The other two see it like we do here.

“The Supreme Military Council met with Mubarak and as I have said time and time again it is NOT going to pan out the way Obama wants it. There was false rumors stating Mubarak was going to resign, it’s not true, the truth is Mubarak is very ill, his health has been stressed and the Army is fed up. (They leaked the false report to the media to see who they carried the message to in the mob’s hierarchy. They are going to declare Martial Law, it’s going to get ugly.

The Supreme Military council during a meeting yesterday stated in one voice, “We will not be ordered around by the Obama regime and we will not hand over Egypt to the bastards he supports. If they think Mubarak is a tyrant they have seen nothing.”

Here is a new FR thread regarding the Cuban government’s announcement that demonstrations will not be tolerated:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2671973/posts

The masses in Egypt are so angry that on Friday they plan to march the 13 miles to the presidential palace. Wonder what they and the Army will do when they get there??? :-(
Here is AOL’s Egypt story for this evening regarding labor’s reactions as well as the march:

I’m signing-out while wtaching FoxNews which reports the Army is supposed to issue a statement.

I had to leave for work at about 1400 Pacific. Just checking back in to see if the the Egyptians have blown up their country or their president yet.

Today....I have a feeling SOMETHING BIG is going to happen.

Welcome home [from work]. Nothing new yet since I last posted and I am really singing out now, but leaving the TV on. Reportedly, military will issue a statement today.

I guess those Moslem ‘prayers’ are over for the morning ...
IIRC, given the time zones, it’s a 10:20 am in Cairo now.

I’ll see you later today!
