What Will the Military Do Next? “Sack the Cabinet”?

That’s the crucial question. El Arabiya has some unsourced predictions (I recommend taking these preliminary reports with a grain of salt):

 

Al Arabiya TV reported that the higher military council will sack the cabinet, suspend both houses of parliament and rule with the head of the supreme constitutional court. The army statement was expected to be delivered later on Friday… Hundreds of thousands of Egyptian protesters waved flags, cried, cheered and embraced in Cairo’s Tahrir Square on Friday, shouting “God is Great.”… 

“He has to leave the country, our demands are clear, we want the entire NDP to be dissolved and to get out because they have destroyed the country,” said Magdi Sabri, a smartly dressed middle-aged man outside state television.
