Mubarak Steps Down
'Egypt is free! Egypt is free!'

Wild cheers erupted from tens of thousands of demonstrators in Cairo's Tahrir Square after word spread that Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak has resigned. Demonstrators chanted "Egypt is free!" upon hearing the news.

CAIRO — President Hosni Mubarak of Egypt turned over all power to the military, and left the Egyptian capital for his resort home in Sharm el-Sheik, Vice President Omar Suleiman announced on state television on Friday.

The announcement, delivered during evening prayers in Cairo, set off a frenzy of celebration, with protesters shouting “Egypt is free!”

The Egyptian military issued a communiqué pledging to carry out a variety of constitutional reforms in a statement notable for its commanding tone. The military’s statement alluded to the delegation of power to Mr. Suleiman and it suggested that the military would supervise implementation of the reforms.

Hopefully an authentic democracy initiated by genuine Egyptians can follow.

A strong message to those who thought Arabs are a bunch of Barbarians who only talk with the language of guns and bombs. This is probably the greatest and most civilized way a revolution is managed. Christians and Muslims joining forces to take down one of the worst dictators Egypt has seen.

Yeah, I'd say it's still in the process of becoming.

We haven't seen anything yet to make any judgement about this being positive or not. We already saw Hamas get elected in one of these free and democratic elections. If the people want to impress anyone they'd better elect a government that will behave in a civilized manner and not another ally of Hamas or Iran.

I don't expect that to happen frankly. I hope this does not become another iteration of "Who lost China?"

From seeing the way people protested and voiced their demands, I think I can say that if things are done the right way (According to what the people changed in the constitution) then someone worthy and civilized enough will be elected.

I am going to cherish this moment, I never thought it would happen in my lifetime.
