Mubarak Will Hold Onto Power

Or so he says.  As my Egyptian correspondent initially predicted, he's telling his government to resign--as yasminhamidi tweeted, "Mubarak: To prove I am not a dictator, I will personally name a new government!"


Now we see if the population will tolerate it.  I won't venture an opinion, as I simply don't know.  But if I were an Egyptian, I certainly wouldn't stand for it.
