Mubarak may have more support than the media is letting on.
Bingo!
My thinking is that the MB was sending in the camels and the whips to stir up frenzy. Then the army (Mubarak) had no choice but go in with tear gas. That makes the army looks bad after which the MB, backed by Obama, will save the day. Voila, islamic thugocracy established. Mission accomplished.
Let’s not forget that Obama has already said that the MB is a viable partner or some such. Let’s tie him to his words. He’s on record.

It isn’t so much who has more supporters, it is who has more supporters with GUNS.
I give the edge, so far, to Mubarak. When the tanks and arms are on the other side I will change my opinion.
He surely has some support. Some people benefit from his regime and stand to lose if the Muslim Brotherhood gains power.
he does and it seems the obama muslim brotherhood are now pissed off that Mubarack is fighting back and not handing his country over .
Of course it does not surprise me that OUR CORRUPT BIASED MEDIA are doing what they can to get rid of Mubarack, lie and defend obama’s now islamic pals the muslim brotherhood.
It sickens me that our ally which has kept peace for decades is now an enemy of this admin while our islamic enemies are not our allies and the media lets him get away with this plus the American Jews for the most part ignore all of this and still support a man which hates Israel and Jews
Fouad Ajami, on TV last night with Anderson Cooper, said that there was something like 1.7 million employees of the Egyptian intelligence services, and that Mubarak was the meal ticket for just about all of them.
Here is a link that started out as a comment on the world market reaction to the Egypt mess, but now a number of the comments are reporting specific scary action in the square, including the thing about rocks being dropped on the demonstrators. Also report that criminals are being paid to cause trouble in the square.
