Egypt

[rm]

If you're not watching the Al Jazeera feed right now, you should be if you can.

Many of their correspondents are crying, talking about being born the week Mubarak came into power. There was just an interview with one women who was sobbing and she said, "This is everything I've ever cared about. As a woman. About Palestine. Now anything is possible."

Then a male correspondent: "I've seen people give birth, I've seen people get married. I've seen people graduate, and I have never seen happiness like this."

Amazing. I was so crushed when I heard they were celebrating last night, handing around packages of dates, and then Mubarak was all, "I'm not leaving." So this is incredible and YAY!!
