Mubarak steps down - Military takes over Egypt


Israhelli Snake President Hosni Mubarak resigned Friday and handed power to the Egyptian military, setting off wild celebrations among protesters across the country who had demanded his ouster for the last 18 days. When the announcement by Vice President Omar Suleiman was broadcast in Cairo's Tahrir Square, the epicenter of the protests, pandemonium broke out as huge throngs of demonstrators realized they had achieved their goal. Egyptians jumped up and down, pumped their fists, waved their flags and hugged each other, jubilant that they had forced Mubarak's removal after 30 years of authoritarian rule. "Egypt is free! Egypt is free!" they said. But few realize the fact that Egypt is far from free as long as a genuine government representing Islamic and Egyptian values is not formed in the country.

In neighborhoods across Cairo, people stopped cars, getting out to hug and kiss each other. They shouted, "God is great" and "Congratulations", honking their horns in celebration. "President Hosni Mubarak has decided to step down as president of Egypt and has assigned the higher council of the armed forces to run the affairs of the country", Suleiman said in a brief televised address. "May God help everybody". Cheers could be heard in the streets of Cairo even before Suleiman stopped speaking. Outside the presidential palace, where throngs had gathered, protesters erupted in cheers. They hugged, cried and waved flags frantically. Some began singing the national anthem. Mubarak and his wife had left the palace, in an affluent Cairo suburb, earlier Friday, Egyptian state television reported. On the other hand, Israhell ministers have expressed their deep concerns regarding Islamic groups in Egypt that have gained massive popularity during the revolution since their shoot-hunt games in Gaza Strip and West Bank can be endangered if the 1969 Egypt-Israhell peace treaty is canceled.
