STRATFOR  "What we see is that while Mubarak is gone, the military regime in which he served has dramatically increased its power. This isn’t incompatible with democratic reform.

The problem is that if the military is insincere it will do exactly the same things. Six months is a long time, passions can subside and promises can be forgotten."
