'I've Asked My Government to Step Down' — Hosni Mubarak

Well, we'll get the real-life test of my thesis: "If Mubarak is Toppled?"

Updates and videos forthcoming.

2:55pm: Mubarak hangs on. New York Times has a report, "Mubarak Orders Ministers to Resign but Backs Armed Response to Egypt Protests." And at ABC News, "Egyptians Defy Curfew, President Mubarak Announces New Government but Won't Resign: U.S. Reconsiders Aid to Egypt, Secretary Clinton Mum on Hosni Mubarak's Fate."

And check for BREAKING UPDATES THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT.

Lots of midnight oil burning in capitols all over the world this day! If Hosni goes, what fills the void? If the MuslimBrotherhood moves in, they just make themselves good targets (listening Mosad?).
