    Pa Da on Facebook - president mobarak must step down for the sake of his people and his country and he should be held responsible for every blood that has been shed during the time of protest.

    Average age of the protestors ? Around 25. Average age of the Egyptian Government and Generals ? Around 75. There鈥檚 one mildly tricky problem, right there.........Peter/Dubai

    The Egyptian Army should step in to resolve this impasse between the protesters and Mubarak before their institutional and territorial integrity collapses. RUMMAN, Bangladesh

    Oliver on Facebook - if the army expresses the people's wish as legitimate, they - logically - would have to lift the state of emergency while the people are legitimately on the streets, not when they have given up their rights to speak out and went home

    Dragan in New Zealand on Facebook - The Army should be with the people. They are there to protect the people, not keep one man in power.

    Sir, Mubarak desperation is a reflection of evil leaders that stifled the growth of Africa. It is either he goes peacefully or he is violently jettisoned- Oni, Nigeria.
