distinguished diplomat. he knows the arab world and the middle east extremely well. he was trying to create a little bit of space for mr. mubarak so that he can reflect on his legacy, and i guess the main message i would say if i had a private meeting with president mubarak in one sentence is, mr. mubarak, please help facilitate the success of this transition. >> so where we saw former ambassador wisner seeming to say that mubarak needs to stay in office, you see a man saying find a good way to exit, sir. >> he made a reference to his legacy and the role he could play to ensure it just didn't end up in shambles. >> we'll come back. we want the ambassador to stand by. when we come back, we want to find out if there were warning signs about the size and scope of this crisis in egypt.
