For 17 days, tens of thousands of anti-government protesters gathered in Tahrir Square calling for the resignation of President Hosni Mubarak, 30 years in power. They had been acting out of passion for their country and dedication for change. They had protested and waited for a response. The response came in an address from Mubarak to the country and his people. Mubarak would not step down. Then almost miraculously, on the eighteenth day of protests, Vice President Omar Suleiman made a very brief statement on state television. Mubarak had stepped down. The crowds erupted "Egypt is free!" "Egypt is free!" -- Paula Nelson (40 photos total)17日，上萬(wàn)名反政府示威者聚集在開(kāi)羅市中心的解放廣場(chǎng)要求獨裁了三十年的埃及總統胡思尼·穆巴拉克下臺。他們用無(wú)比的激情表現出對本國前途和社會(huì )變革的渴望。他們不間斷地抗議，等待著(zhù)專(zhuān)制者的回復。穆巴拉克的回應以演說(shuō)形式傳達給遍布埃及各個(gè)角落的民眾。穆巴拉克拒絕了辭職。但戲劇性地是，在抗議活動(dòng)達到第十八天的時(shí)候，副總統奧馬爾·蘇萊曼在電視上發(fā)表了一個(gè)簡(jiǎn)短聲明：穆巴拉克辭去埃及總統職務(wù)?？棺h群眾們爆發(fā)出熱烈的呼喊，“埃及自由啦！”“埃及自由啦！”——文 保拉·尼爾森

Protesters in Cairo's central Tahrir Square, hoping he would announce his resignation outright, reacted in fury and disbelief. (Emilio Morenatti/Associated Press) #
