Makes you wonder? There looked to be some military moving in but I was confused about if that was an earlier clip because I was only listening and not watching then went outside for a minute and came back to hear the switch over.

last thing i saw were what looked like either water or fuel tanker trucks from the military driving across the flyover and in to the city... overnight it sure looked like the pro-mubarak people were organizing themselves very deliberately for some sort of action...

"I don't know what comes next, but if we are willing to die to be free, then we can never be defeated." - Aalla Abdel Fattah, protest leader

Wow. The interviews with these people make it obvious that the protesters know the end game. It's either death in a protest in hopes of the current regime to step down, or to stop protesting and be hunted down when the current regime reclaims its power.

military appears to have moved in to keep the pro-mubarak faction away from the anti-mubarak crowd... it's hard to tell if that is what happened and if so, why...

there are tanks parked on and below the flyovers on the north end of Liberation Square for about 30 mins...

Who knew George Carlin worked for AlJazeera?

Al Jazeera English had their broadcast cameras seized and reports are that the regime is cracking down on journalists... the general sense of things is that it's all going to come to a head tomorrow after prayers...

Bullshit. I listen to him every day and he's never said that. Mediamatters has a tendency to stretch the truth.

Beck used to be crazy, but still made valid points.

Now...he's just fucking crazy

Coastal, I suggest you take this opportunity to bow out of this thread before you look like an even bigger jackass.

Mubarak tells Amanpour "if i resign there will be chaos" "i am tired of being president"

arab media response "he's attempting to prey on American fears of Tehran '79 to justify holding power"
