I'm not really up to date on things, but how are the soldiers actually behaving? Because even if the higher-ups say that The Army is going to support him, it doesn't always reflect the mindset of the troops.
As several officers have allready deserted, i think this will turn into a conflict between military democrats backed by protestors and military loyalists. Either way it will be bloody.
Tienanmen Square all over again.

CAIRO – Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak has stepped down and handed power to the military.
THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.[/B]
History! And now we wait for the Army.
Congratulations!
Holy fuck. Now we will see if Egypt will turn into a militaristic authoritarian or democratic nation. It all depends on the people, and the military.
Great job!
They broke into Orla Guerrin on the World Service! I'm so damned happy.
My heart is with you Egypt! Congratulations! I can not express my happiness! :D
