Egypt's military has thrown its weight at the back President Hosni Mubarak's decision not to resign but to transfer most of his powers to his vice president.
Friday's statement is likely to further enrage protesters who have marched to Mubarak's Cairo palace and other key cryptogram of the hated regime in a new push to force the president out. The statement the second in two days comes after a convention of the military's Supreme Council, led as a result of the defense minister. The military says it endorses Mubarak's plan for a peaceful transfer of power and free and fair presidential election later this year.
