richard, a member of parliament went on al jazeera today and admitted business associates close to the regime did in fact pay some of these pro-mubarak protesters to hit the streets. does that surprise you? >> no. the purpose of this may have been to intimidate the people in the streets, may have been to create a real sense of crisis to force the army's hand. throughout much of mr. mubarak's 30 years of rule, he tried to portray himself as the person who stood between egypt and chaos or between egypt and an islamic alternative. so the sort of violence we've seen today, while some of it may have been spontaneous, the idea that some of it may have been orchestrated by the president and his supporters should not come as any surprise. >> couric: can hosni mubarak survive until the september elections or will something have to give, given this violence today? >> i don't believe he can survive until the elections. i think the situation would continue to get worse, and i think the army will not let it get that far, and the army will step in. hosni mubarak also has to be careful here. the pote
