More Updates on Egypt; Unrest Spreading to Syria?

More Egypt (and related) tidbits:

  • Stratfor is reporting that Egyptian security forces have fallen back from from Tahrir Square.
  • There are reports that the Internet in Syria has also been taken down, though other reports contradict this.
  • Elliot Abrams thinks the military might very well turn on Mubarak.
  • Dwight over at Whipped Cream Difficulties takes a look at Egypt’s situation and how it meets (or almost meets) the five modern criteria for a successful revolution.
  • If you like more updates than you can possibly look at (or like looking at the Fail Whale), here’s the Twitter view of events. (“2,077 more tweets since you started searching.”)
