Mubarak didn't step down because of violence, it was because the people showed their strength through non-violent means. This is precisely why this event is so dramatic.

according to BO, Panetta and Clapper, the only thing they know is what they learn from watching the news, so...while I'm sure you will cheerfully heap credit on him till it turns bad...not really sure what he had to do with anything....

I'm sure they love Drudge reporting (and Salty broadcasting) that the Admin is out to lunch.
Then the Islamists can't accuse the US of meddling in Muslim affairs

It happened on his watch, if it turns into a disaster he'll get all the blame.
Looks like Google might get all the credit, along with the protesters.

Little early, 8 hrs, to proclaim credit or blame.
Good idea to wait a year or two before making any judgements,
this is far from over. |

It is interesting how Google and Twitter are covering themselves in glory over this. They were not so quick to claim credit after the disturbances in Iran last year where the government was able to find and arrest dissidents by tracing their social networking accounts |
