"...three sources in the military and security services, which retain control
following the revolt, said Mubarak was being kept alive and said they would not
use the expression "clinically dead" to describe his condition.
General Said Abbas, a member of the ruling military council, told Reuters,
that Mubarak had suffered a stroke but added: "Any talk of him being clinically
dead is nonsense."
Another military source said: "He is completely unconscious. He is using
artificial respiration."
A security source also gave the same account and said: "It is still early to
say that he is clinically dead."" Reuters

IMO, he is dead. His death will be announced as it is convenient. Rejoice all you friends of freedom and progress! (irony alert).
For all the believers in the social evolution of mankind, this is a case of "prison influenza." This has been quite common on the Arab World.
BTW, I never liked him personally. pl
