What???? Hosni Mubarak is not stepping down???

I am here to stay

Mubarak is still in Cairo and will address the nation from from his palace in Cairo reports Al Arabiya - the national TV station. However, there are rumors that he is now in UAE and that the Minister of State is in currently in control. 


The Muslim Brotherhood is claiming that this is a coup d'etat by the army but the people on the ground are denying this claim. The army and the people are in unity - they say.


The other new information coming out is that Hosni Mubarak is being asked to "step aside" not "step down". So he will transfer some of the powers to the Vice President, Omar Suleiman.


Are we seeing the birth of a new Republic????
