Abdel-Monaem Abdel-Maqsoud, a lawyer representing the Muslim Brotherhood, said 34 members were arrested and taken to a prison north-west of Cairo ahead of last Friday's mass protests. All 34 got away last night, he said, including seven senior leaders

Egypt’s military moved more aggressively Sunday to take control over parts of the capital, but the sixth day of unrest ended with increasing questions about how much longer President Hosni Mubarak could withstand calls for his resignation, including an electrifying demand from opposition leader Mohamed ElBaradei that he step down to “save the country.”
Just hours after fighter jets buzzed overhead and a column of tanks tried to enter Cairo’s central Tahrir Square, thousands of protesters defied a government-imposed curfew to gather in a peaceful nighttime demonstration that culminated in the dramatic appearance by ElBaradei.
The opposition leader, who earlier in the day won a political endorsement from Egypt’s banned Muslim Brotherhood, promised protesters through a megaphone that “change is coming in the next few days.”

Against the regime, the opposition groups - of which there are at leas ten - are just as hamstrung by their failure to produce a leader able to stand up and challenge the president. For lack of any representative figure, they picked the retired nuclear watchdog director Dr. Mohamed ElBaradi to speak for them in negotiations over the transfer of power. Hardly anyone in Egypt knows him: He is better known outside the country having spent many years abroad.
They are trying to defame the Muslim Brotherhood by deception and rumors, claiming that Muslim Brotherhood members had a meeting with Obama.
U.S. President Barack Obama met with members of Egypt's Islamist opposition movement, the Muslim Brotherhood, earlier this year, according to a report in Thursday editions of the Egyptian daily newspaper Almasry Alyoum.
The newspaper reported that Obama met the group's members, who reside in the U.S. and Europe, in Washington two months ago.
Any and every Muslim knows that Muslim Brotherhood is against US domination of the Middle East, and against US fascist puppets installed throughout Muslim land.

ElBaradei also criticised the American policy andasked the US to "stop the life support" to the dictator whileasking Mubarak to step down. He also said that the MuslimBrotherhood will have to be part of any future government andalso indicated that he will reach out to the Army.
A senior member of the Muslim Brotherhood earlier saidOpposition forces have agreed to support ElBaradei tonegotiate with the government, Al Arabiya TV reported.

Revolutons may be planned, but spontaneous uprisings aren't. The spark happened when the Egyptians realized the economic woes hitting them in their face.

I'm a non-interventionalist. What the people in Egypt and the rest of the Middle East decide for themselves as far as who they want to govern them affects no one other than the people in the Middle East. The western world shout stay the hell out of influencing their politics and politicians.

the Brotherhood, which lost all 88 of its parliamentary seats in last November's election, appears to be trying to harness the political, economic and social unrest that sparked the riots to gather support for its Islamist agenda
