Mubarak appears on TV, defends security forces
CAIRO – Embattled President Hosni Mubarak has appeared on television for the first time since protests erupted demanding his ouster, and he says he will press ahead with social, economic and political reforms.
He is defending security forces' crackdown on protesters.
Protesters have seized the streets of Cairo, battling police with stones and firebombs, burning down the ruling party headquarters, and defying a night curfew enforced by a military deployment. It is the peak of unrest posing the most dire threat to Mubarak in his three decades of authoritarian rule.

This is what exactly the Russians and Chinese do. But he must get a lot tougher like blood on the streets like 5,000 protesters killed. Start firing rounds of machine guns at the crowd. Put over 500 tanks and 2,000 soldiers and if you see a protester kill him!!! That will shut em up.
