DebkaFile Claim: Mubarak Familhy Fleeing Egypt For London
A commenter mentioned something like this yesterday.
Is it true?
Well there are real reasons to think it's not -- revolutionary movements like this have a strong interest in putting claims out there like this, because sometimes the belief can quickly become the reality. (If army generals think the leadership has fled, they make cut deals with people to save themselves, which then in turn makes it necessary for the leadership to flee.)
Also, it's Debka, which a lot of people seem to cite but I really can't think of a Debka scoop that panned out.
Still, there's the tidbit. Via Instapundit.
