He's basically saying sorry for people hurt on both sides (state police/protesters)
Understand concerns of people, jobs, class of living,
begs people of Egypt not to fall into Chaos..
Don't allow this "fear" to grip our people :rofl:
I've asked the government to resign and will make a new government tomorrow WTF ever that means

9. I'll second that. Called on a few ways to end the protests except the most obvious... |
|
And that would be the solution that requires Mubarak to resign as is the wish of the people.

With him or his son as president. I think he just poured gasoline into the fire.

37. At the risk of tinfoilness, is there any way to know it was not pre-recorded |
|
or even from another location? Did anything indicate it was live and it was from Cairo?

because I gave you all the freedoms and always shed a tear for the poor. We will do reforms like we always did. We might buy more teargas made in the USA, though."

Clearly he's not going anywhere but he's promising to change.

He should leave. At this point, no one is going to listen to him.

32. Pretty much 'double-talk,' |
|
but he seems to be wishing to be president after all. I think his speech just poured more gasoline into the fires of the protests. Rhetorics will not protect him.

34. Definitely. It's a costume change. ("I asked the 'government' to resign") |
|
"I asked the government to resign" (snort)
I think we'll see the reaction to that speech tomorrow.

38. Stalling for time til his generals get back from DC. |
|
This does not look good because he should quit and longer the limbo the more likely poor result.
Looks like toast to me.

After 30 years of oppression, how can they not just take him at his word and welcome him back with open arms?
Anyone starting to feel a song coming on too?
