"... Every day there are more numbers on the street than the day before. I think the protests are gaining momentum. The people will literally not leave until Mubarak steps down."-Gigi Ibrahim, political activist.
With the inadequacy of current western media, the sheer volume of people currently attending these protests can easily go un-noticed. We are dealing with a true, peaceful, democratic revolution - something our generation has never seen before.
The arrest of 5 Aljazeera reporters in Cario this last week has stirred the international press community.
"We will report the news however we can. If we have to use flip cams in Egypt, we will. If we have to use online platforms in the US, we will." said Wadah Khanfar, director general of the Al Jazeera Network, in his press release earlier today.
