After rambling on for a half hour last night and not saying anything, today Mubarak sent Omar Suleiman on television to say this:
In the name of God the merciful, the compassionate, citizens, during these very difficult circumstances Egypt is going through, President Hosni Mubarak has decided to step down from the office of president of the republic and has charged the high council of the armed forces to administer the affairs of the country. May God help everybody.
The man who held onto power for 30 years and survived six assassination attempts was ultimately forced to bow to his people's demands for change.
That's it. He's out.
