You were wrong. :blah:

Do you think Mubarak just changed his mind hours after saying he would stay? Somebody wearing a uniform told him today to resign or he would be removed.
 
Excerpted from “U.S.: Military turned on Mubarak,” MSNBC, 1 minute ago
[SIZE="+2"]U[/SIZE].S. officials tell NBC News' Robert Windrem that Egyptian military officials turned on President Hosni Mubarak last night, with some senior military officials threatening to take off their uniforms and join the protesters.

Asked if this was a military coup, an official said, "Call it clear military pressure."
 
Yeah I think you were close enough to being right. I wouldn't begin to predict what happens next though.
