Our stupid media is acting like the Muslim Brotherhood is completely behind the demonstrations and will lead to the end of the world.

From Guardian:
Witnesses at the railway station in Alexandria are now saying that excitement by neighbourhood watch groups might have got out of hand, leading to the flurry of violence.
That doesn't tally with the pro-Mubarak chanting or indeed the earlier footage on al-Jazeera, although it did look impromptu – at least one of the men on the square was waving about the leafy branch of a tree.

The scenes on Tahrir Square in Cairo appear peaceful, with makeshift tents springing up and many protesters settling down for the night. But an out of breath al-Jazeera reporter has just gone on air to say that, while leaving the square, he came across gangs of motorcyclists circling, with chants of "We love Hosni, we love you president" and "We don't want him to leave," along with a group of 300 or so demonstrators.
Hotel security in the area is said to be looking nervous and that the army units nearby are putting on flak jackets and moving to battle stations.

This is the logical conclusion everyone should reach...minus the politicians i.e. This is their biggest nightmare. The US govt & Israel are crapping their pants; their biggest and only meaningful ally in the Middle East is on the brink of losing its best buddy. This will be a major set back for them. The US has more to worry about because this revolution fever seems to be spreading across the Arab world, threatening every puppet government they've planted in the past half-a-century.
The problem about all these pseudo-revolutions is that, at times, some of the participants could find a home in extremism. It's nice to see that the Egyptians do not appear to be taking that route, but I'm not so sure about certain individuals from other nations.
The fact that our own politicians are scolded for saying Mubarak is a dictator is evidence enough we have some nasty individuals in certain areas of the government.

Some Tv channels on Nilesat stopped broadcasting live from Aljazeera because they said they received threats from Nilesat management that they will be removed from the satellite if they continue broadcasting from Aljazeera.
The only channel that still resists the Nilesat request is Palestine AlYawm. My prediction is that it will be the fourth closed channel on Nilesat since a week.
