Egypt - the New Democracy?

17th day of the protest.  What yesterday was an "unprecedented" amount of people streaming to, and filling up the Tahrir Square, today is even greater.  There is no doubt, that this uprising is on it's way to the Victory.  Liberation Square (Tahrir Sq.) will earn it's name based on the unfolding events in front of our eyes.

Today, at 5 PM of the local time, the army announced that it was stepping in to stabilize the country.  For the last couple of days the VP Suleiman was 'threatening' the demonstrators that if they push too hard, the military coup might be the only option.  Although the army is revered in the the Egyptian society,  the protesters do not want to change the Mubarak's regime for the regime run by the Generals (behind the scenes run that way from the 1952 when the King Farouk was overturn).
What would have been probably the fulfillment of the people's demands 2 weeks ago - the President Mubarak stepping down (expected to be announced today) - today is only one of the top serious demands for restructuring of the whole system.  The disgraced police system has to be dismounted and refreshed.  The ruling National Democratic Party which shamed itself by promoting the police state, accepting the emergency law, and all the human right abuses springing from it, has to be dismounted and either restructured or replaced by a host of new parties.
People who were the prominent players in the current, repressive system (including the VP Suleiman), are completely not acceptable by the street.

Is the VP Suleiman able to run the country putting aside his well trained and habitual apparatus of intimidation and repression?  If the street accepts him, how safe are the members of opposition in the months after the Tahrir Sq. is returned to it's "traffic jam" function?  They can be picked by the police one by one, since the polarized by the revolution society knows well all the opposition faces.

In half an hour the President Mubarak is supposed to speak live on the Egyptian State TV.  Is he going to announce his resignation?  Has he instigated the changes to the constitution allowing the VP to take the power and run the country until the general elections?  How is the street going to react to the 'partial' changes.  How patient are the people on the street.

As proven by history over and over, the Revolution (however difficult and bloody it might be) is the easy part of the transformation of the country.
