"If we decided to give in, we would be hunted down one by one. We know this. |

The woman in Tahrir Square interviewed by Al Jazeera a few hours ago, as reported by Rachel Maddow. Asked why the protesters are not leaving (slight paraphrasing):
"Because we can't go. We've lost a lot of people for a cause... We owe it to them to stick it to the end," until Mubarak is gone.
"If we decided to give in, we would be hunted down one by one. We know this. We've been through this before."

1. That is why the president has to up the pressure. This has gone too |
|
far to turn back now. Furthermore mubarak has shown his true colors to the world with the thugs he sent and it is not going to go well for him even if he stays in power. I for one will want a huge cut in any foreign aid we give him.

3. "We must all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately." |
|
United we stand, divided we fall.
Not just figures of speech.

4. This is why we are at the end game |
|
where it goes, is 24\48 hours, per officials in the administration.
I suspect there have been some ahem talks as it were.

It sounds like you're listening to AJE as well. I just heard them report ElBaradei is saying to Mubarek if there is another massacre today, he will be held personally responsible. Other reports are suggesting things are about to heat up again. :(
