They thought they were on the crest of the revolution yesterday. Hundreds of thousands of protesters took to the streets for more than two weeks shouting "go away" to President Mubarak, but then he came on TV last night and told them he's not budging.
The most important factor to look at is, who among the opposition will lead the country if he steps down? Coz steping down without a strong opposition figure will leads to chaos, they need to restrategise there option. Farouk Usman, Kano, Nigeria.

30 years is long enough for any reasonable person to hold on to power. Mubarak should quit so that Egypt can move forward. Egypt is greater than him. Ishaq, Nigeria

Africa must get rid of Mugabe in Zimbabwe,dos santos in Angola and Mubarak in Egypt,therefore the protest in Cairo should be kept for the benefits of Africa in general and Egypt in particular.
