Mubarak's goons are like Hitler's brown shirt, or storm troopers. They Charge the square riding horses and camels. Camels go nuts in a crowd -- you have to be insane to try to ride one there.
They are using Molotov cocktails, one after another, to attack the peaceful revolutionaries.
About 700 are reported injured, perhaps as many as 500 dead. Goons have taken over military vehicles. Army members have been asked why they don't impose peace and they say the have no orders.
Media attacked -- fists and machetes, knives. Shots often.

Mubarak Gives straight lines.
Hosni Mubarak just announced he would not run again. Of course, he said that last week.
During his speech, billed as "A Solution", he said he never sought power.
This guy really is funny.
He then said he intended "to die on Egyptian soil."
Now, have you ever seen a straight line like that? Immediately, someone in Liberation Square said "Maybe we are hoping for a quick death."
The main reaction is "Leave," repeatedly.
He promised to prevent chaos.
well, that's all.

Ottavia Nasr's Photo from Liberation Square

Octtavia Nasr sent this photo. She was stupidly fired by CNN after doing great work for them.
You can also find Rick Sanchez, who has a list for Egypt and is pretty much on top of this.
Keith Olbermann is there as well running #FOK, but hasn't covered #Egypt.
In short, all the banished reporters are there, on Twitter.
I found David Schuster on Facebook. (The last two banished by MSNBC.)
Since FOX isn't a news channel and is populated by fascists, none have been banished.
Jeremy Scahill who wrote the definitive book of Blackwater is also at both places.
I'll be posting more photos as they become available.
