Ok on dynamics

[nadinbrzezinski]

we have entered the stage of negotiation.

Hosni has given up... and when we enter the I will not run is next to... I will go.

From oh three weeks ago... once the protesters got demands met, they knew they were on the way to their goal, especially when the army backed them.

We are actually following a very similar dynamic.

Oh and having pro hosni protests is near the end of the script. They get them out, and usually they are THIS SMALL, and a symptom of how shallow the support i the streets are.


Now there are real losers on this, not just the millionaires and wealthy who will go to exile, but the middle class who's part of the system and fear losing all (and a very justified fear)

So yes, we are at end game folks.

1. Well, Nadin, "end game" for one Mideast state, as the dynamic moves on to the next...

Perhaps that's what unnerved the early unreccer?

2. Well we have a regular prairie fire

going on.

Next stop is probably yemen... and for the record they are even worst than Egypt and that is a likely place to get a theocracy for multiple reasons.

We have had some concessions from Amman already (hardly made the news here)... but those MIGHT be enough.

Tel Aviv is having a serious case of ordering the pepto by the truckload. I cannot say I can blame them

3. Mubarak will end up in the US. There will be a closed door meeting

in the WH, followed by a photo op on the lawn.

Shortly thereafter Mubarak will be delivered a billion dollars and a new Gulfstream, with an apology for making him come all the way to the US.

After that, business as usual.
