Egypt's one of the powerful ally of Russia in Africa is near to a civil war.

The government of Egypt's authoritarian President, Hosni Mubarak, shook on Monday night, as the Egyptian Army declared that it would not use force against protesters demanding his ouster and, in an apparent response, Mr. Mubarak's most trusted adviser offered to talk with the opposition.

Those statements, along with the damage to Egypt's economy, appeared to weaken Mr. Mubarak's grip on power just two weeks after a group of young political organizers called on Facebook for a day of protest inspired by the ouster of another Arab strongman, in Tunisia.

Hundreds of thousands have turned out into the streets over the last six days, and organizers called on millions of Egyptians to protest on Tuesday.

Within hours on Monday, the political landscape of the country shifted as decisively as it had at any moment in Mr. Mubarak's three decades in power. The military seemed to aggressively assert itself as an arbiter between two irreconcilable forces: a popular uprising demanding Mr. Mubarak's fall and his tenacious refusal to relinquish power.

How far Mr. Mubarak is offering to bend in negotiations remains to be seen, and given the potential ambiguities of both statements it is too soon to write off the survival of his government.

But the six-day-old uprising here entered a new stage about 9 p.m. when a uniformed military spokesman declared on state television that "the armed forces will not resort to use of force against our great people." Addressing the throngs who took to the streets, he declared that the military understood "the legitimacy of your demands" and "affirms that freedom of expression through peaceful means is guaranteed to everybody."

A roar of celebration rose up immediately from the crowd of thousands of protesters still lingering in Tahrir Square, where a television displayed the news. Opposition leaders argued that the phrase "the legitimacy of your demands" could only refer to the protests' central request Mr. Mubarak's departure to make way for free elections. Now Egyptians protesters are millions.

  • No doubt the young people that started the demonstrations in Egypt on Jan 25 love their country. However, after all these days that love reminds me with an old story about the bear that saw a wasp on her master’s forehead while he was sleeping and through a big stone on the wasp to save her master. The wasp flew away but her master never wakes up!!!!

  • "FED-UP" DICTATOR MUBARAK AND HIS FAMILY'S NET WORTH IS ESTIMATED TO BE BETWEEN U.S. $40-70 BILLION, A MEDIA REPORT SAID.

    NOT BAD FOR AN AUTOCRAT WHO CONSIDERS HIMSELF TO BE THE "FATHER" OF THE NATION "HELPING" HIS PEOPLE. LOOKS LIKE HE HAS BEEN "HELPING" WITH THE NATIONAL TREASURY ?.

    HE IS RIGHT - HOW CAN WE UNDERSTAND HIM? ALL THE LEADERS IN THE MENA REGION ARE ALIKE.

    IF HE LEAVES THE COUNTRY THEN THE MONEY GETS SENT BACK TO THE PEOPLE? THAT'S THE RUB. HE MUST PUT STOOGES IN PLACE FIRST.
