The 30 years of Mubarak term are up and Egyptians are ready for a change. With the city in pandemonium the Military now has control of the city.

Video- Abdul Hakim Nasser Speaks
The video I watched involved the son of former Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser Hussien. Gamal Abdel led the people of Egypt in last revolution in 1952. When the son visited the square named after the last revolution, many people enjoyed his company and treated him like a celebrity, taking pictures and hugging him. The son stresses that the problem must be fixed before it gets even more out of hand.
Slide Show
Watching the slideshow of the Cairo’s protest I see how the people are desperate for a change. Where the media is blocked out signs reading “Facebook” where the anti-Mubarak movement is operated. From looking at the signs and seeing the protest there seems to be no violence at all. By protesting in a peaceful manner a solution can be solved quicker and less violence will occur.
