Egypt: The morning after the night before

| Saturday, 2 Feb. 2011 | 13:06 - 16:00 GMT

So President Mubarak has finally resigned. It's over. People in Cairo have been celebrating what opposition figurehead Mohammed El Baradei called "the greatest day of my life." We've spoken to Egyptians who say the same thing. It's quite a statement. For many, it seems, yesterday was more amazing than the day they got married or the moment their child was born. We'll be speaking to Egyptians about how they feel after eighteen extraordinary days of protest. Was yesterday really one of the most significant moments in their lives? What about the Egyptians who never asked for a revolution? Is there a discontent surrounding Hosni Mubarak's resignation that's going under reported in the media?

    I praise the professonalism of the Egyptian army, they refused to harm their own people but protected them, unlike other African soldiers who kill, steal and rape their own people in such situation. From Collins a Nigerian living in CAMBODIA@

    I think this is not the time to celebrate. This is the time to be afraid ,to be vigilant lest the Egyptian revolution be hijacked by undesirable elements. Nbasu, Nigeria.

    Cliff Harris on Facebook - It is a massive setback for the Army to keep in place the current government. Surely calling in the UN would of been better
