Egypt's army - widely seen as an arbiter in the crisis - issued a statement on Wednesday calling for demonstrators to return to their homes, and allow life in the country to return to normal.
"Your message has arrived, your demands became known... you are capable of bringing normal life to Egypt," said a spokesman in a message broadcast on state television. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-12342215
Shit! But to be expected. In the absence of revolutionary infiltration of the army, it is highly unlikely that it would back "the people." The officer corps is a pillar of the regime and closely tied to the US. Obama has sent signals that Mubarak is to remain in office for now.
