Protest in Egypt

In Cairo, Egypt, thousands of citizens are protesting again Hosni Murabak, the president. They demand to release Mubarak in his position as president. He called for "the new beginning of a new Egypt in which ever Egyptian lives in virtue, freedom and dignity." They were already scheduling flights to leave Cairo for Greece, Turkey, Cyprus, and Canada. The United States is offering flights to other Americans in Egypt who want to leave if they can't get a seat on commercial flights. The Egyptian military is blocking off the main streets with tanks and is sending F-16 jets flying over downtown. Thousands families came out after the four o' clock curfew and were screaming for Mubarak to leave. Armed men in gangs freed hundreds of people in jail across the country.
