No real surprise there but it is exciting that the Egyptian people have risen against and overcome a stooge for the USA and the State of Israel. There's news all over the web.
Here's the Beeb:
Hosni Mubarak has decided to step down as president of Egypt.
In an announcement on state TV, Vice-President Omar Suleiman said Mr Mubarak had handed power to the military.
It came as thousands massed in Cairo and other Egyptian cities for an 18th day of protest to demand Mr Mubarak's resignation.
Protesters responded by cheering, waving flags, embracing and sounding car horns. "The people have brought down the regime," they chanted.
But of course, it ain't over:
Mr Suleiman said Mr Mubarak had handed power to the high command of the armed forces.
Hmmm....
