It's hard to blog about the events in Egypt because they're moving very fast. Aljazeera is reporting that protesters are welcoming the military as they make their way to Al-Tahrir Square. It's unclear whether the military will clamp down on the protesters since the only sign coming from the president of Egypt who is also the commander in chief was to impose a curfew from 6 pm to 7 am tomorrow. Many protesters are hoping for a similar turn of events as in Tunisia when the military turned against the government and sided with the people. If that ever happens in Egypt, it will truly be extraordinarily surprising since the military in Egypt has vested interests to keep the status quo, but it seems like the will of Egyptians is unbreakable this time. Aljazeera is doing a magnificent job covering the demonstrations despite the chaos in the streets and injuries some of their journalists have suffered from. Apparently, Hosni Mubarak is about to speak on national television (it was about time) and I wonder if he's going to announce his resignation. Again, this is very unlikely but things are degenerating very quickly and his resignation might be the only panacea to people's frustrations. Aljazeera is also reporting that all police forces are withdrawing from major cities to allow for the military to take over. CNN was the first to announce that Mubarak was preparing to address his people and Hilary Clinton will be holding a press conference at noon ET about the situation in Egypt. It might be that Obama, Clinton and Mubarak have talked this morning about how to handle all this and pressured Mubarak to finally say something. I can't access Egyptian TV, but according to Aljazeera they're still reporting that things are under control.

Will provide the latest from Aljazeera as soon as possible. You can follow some interesting Twitter activity on this at #Egypt, #jan25 and #25jan.
