Hundreds dead in Egypt as army cracks down on sit ins

[FAH1223]

State of Emergency is officially back for a "month". Last time they said that was when Sadat got assassinated and it lasted till 2011 The clock has been turned back to 2010. Back to square one.


Also 17 year old daughter of well known MB leader Mohamed Beltagy was killed, as were a number of journalists.

Yeah, I saw that Khairat El-Shater's daughter was killed too but she posted on FB her family is fine.

Did they think the millions who voted for Morsi were going to just let it slide?

[Arabman]

AUN to the martyrs. I believe it's time that Islamic insurgents help liberate Egyptians from their US-funded/trained army, police and mukhabarat.

This is unfortunate. I have many Egyptian friends who define themselves as moderates and when the initial protest began against Morsi they were supporting the movement. Now they wish they danced to a different tune seeing how the country is so divided. It's ironic for a country that went through so much to get democracy, they couldnt give a democratically elected president the ability to do his Job.

Stupid Arabs. Play things of the wider world.

Or at least wait till 2016 and go through the process politically. Using SCAF was a mistake.

This girl I know is in the region and she was going to Kenya and Sudan but plans took a different turn:

I've been watching the news nonstop since I arrived in Cairo. I hear about a woman being raped at a train station. I take a long bath and sleep with the lights on. I wake up to the sound of laughter and cigarette smoke followed by loud door knocks. I rush and peak through the door to find three men standing. I don’t say a word. The knocking continues and I stand quietly thinking of the worst possible scenario. The men leave and I gather my travel documents and rush to the airport to explain my situation again. I've been in Cairo for over two days. They tell me I cannot leave Cairo until next week. I am nervous and agitated. My flight was cancelled as a result of a fire breakout at Nairobi Airport. All Kenyan flights, in which I was flying through, are cancelled and no one wants to do their job to transfer my booking. Being a female traveler is often difficult because everyone wants to harass you. I've done so much running around since I arrived. Finally, a last minute flight to Khartoum is booked. I am grateful to have arrived safely.

FAh1223,

Is she hot ?

[Insomniac]

How does it feel? To shit yourself because you might get raped.

[Somali-Transporter]

Another great Arab nation being destroyed: Lebanon, Iraq, Libya, and now Egypt. The only ones left intact are ruled by royals. A conspiracy against Arab nationalism !

WTH

Jewish loyalist in snet!
