Mubarak is doing the same today, sending in his thugs to beat and kill the demonstrators. He obviously thinks he can get the same results that the Iranian tyrants did, and prolong his reign of domination over the Egyptian people. Come September, I have no doubt that Mubarak will concoct a reason of some urgent emergency to "delay" his transition from power - war with Israel?
I have a deep hope that the opposition will not back down, but increase their outrage at the thuggery and force him out now.
