From my dad who monitors lots of Arabic and English language stations from Amman:
Follow up to understated email:
At last, in an attempt to appease the revolutionaries , the High Council of the Armed forced dissolved the Peoples' Council and the Shura Council.
Also suspended the application of the constitution and formed a committee to review amendable items.
So far has resisted dissolving the Mubarak appointed govt, is refusing to annul the Emergency law in effect,.and is refusing to free political prisoners.
General feeling I get from Egyptian Satellites is an attempt to quench the euphoria and accompanying celebrations.egs:
1- We should respect the persona of the outgoing President, after all he has been our president and we should see that he stays on Egyptian soil for his remaining years; let us grant him dignity!!
2- They are full of praises to the current PM Ahmad Shafiq for his fairness. frankness and good intentions and his fulfillment of justice

3- The govt called for closing all banks under the pretext that because of demonstrations they cannot secure the safety of the banks. It is clear that they are using that fake justification to force dispersant. Multi satellited are reporting that the High Council of Armed Forces is preparing to appoint Omar Suleiman the ousted VP to an "important post"
