"This is the last warning before we lay siege to the presidential palace," said Mahmoud Hashim, a 21-year-old student from the city of Suez on the Red Sea. "We want the presidential decrees cancelled."

Jeez, that student isn't hanging out playing video games, perusing the j crew catalog and incessantly updating his Facebook account.... These Egyptian students take their citizenship pretty seriously. We American students should take note.

It won't be pretty.. When Mubarek stepped down .. there were millions on the street in protest .. and it was one of the peaceful ones ..
