Tip, this is the Arabic phrase to search for on YouTube: ميدان التحرير لحظة تنحي مبارك

1. Amazing! And by the looks of the camera-phones in the video, this was very well documented.
I look forward to more!

4. I noticed that too
and I also wondered what the exact phrase was that the announcer used. It sounded short, maybe something like "Mubarak has left the building!"

3. Beautiful. They did it. The joy and emotion is so present.
Fuckall those who are trying to minimize and corrupt what the people have done.

5. All of the car horns and people in the street remind me of the night Obama was elected
I hope that they have more to celebrate that we do a few years from now.

7. The revolution wasn't televised, it was tweeted..
Hopefully we will learn freedom is not secured by a crushing military budget, it is simply the collective will of the people to be free.

13. Sends chills up my spine
Truly, truly a historic moment not only in Egyptian history, but in the history of the world. This is what our future generations will be reading about in their history books. This is what collective free-will does. This is what happens when the spirit of an entire people lifts up and corrects the wrongs of their nation. Congratulations Egypt. The world is with you.
