A large chunk of the crowd left Tahrir right after the speech, headed for the TV station and the palace. It could easily get ugly tonight.
The entire world has a stake in what happens in Egypt. Three major reasons:
1. Suez Canal. Who controls the canal controls the world economy. If it is shut down, it'll be a race between the U.S., the E.U., and Israel to get to the thing to reopen it by any means necessary. You think oil is expensive now? Watch what happens 2 days after the Suez closes.
2. A fundamentalist government in place in Egypt destablizes the entire Middle East. I should note that Egypt has over 1,000 M1A2 tanks. That's a very powerful force.
3. See 1 above.
