'CIA million-dollar modeling couldn't predict Egypt revolution'

Egypt's military leaders have dissolved parliament and suspended the constitution, taking power from deposed president Hosni Mubarak. The higher military council said it would stay in power for six months, or until elections are held. A committee is now being formed to amend the constitution and set laws for the interim period.

Some Egyptian and Arab media are reporting that the 82-year-old former head-of-state is in poor health and may even be in a coma. There has been no official response from Cairo to the rumours regarding Mubarak's condition.

Meanwhile, after Washington called events in Egypt a victory for democracy, author and journalist Afshin Rattansi says it's not an American triumph.
