24. Al Jazeera reports protestors have taken control of Alexandria

7:15 pm - The military has now arrived in Alexandria, though Rawya Rageh reports that they aren't confronting the protesters there with violence. In fact, she says, they are giving them the thumbs up.

The situation is different in Suez, where Jamal Elshayyal says police are still clashing with protesters.

It's when the military refuses to fight that governments fall. We might actually see the fall of the dicatorship, against the will of the US, mind you.

Question is, what kind of government will they get instead?
