Crowds of hundreds of thousands gathered to hear the President of Egypt as he resigned, instead he spoke about his sacrifices for Egypt and hoe much he loved the people. What he didn't say was that he is leaving. He reiterated his intention to not run for reelection in September. This is not what people expected and wanted.
A crowd who was joyous has turned into an angry mob. In Alexandria protesters are heading toward the military base, in Cairo they are waving shoes in the air. How will the army and police handle this is very much in question.
Mubarak could have stepped down and ended this and instead he resisted and has set Egypt ablaze. Sad times in Egypt.
