DEVELOPING: Loud explosions and gunfire were heard in the Egyptian capital of Cairo Friday, as protesters demanding the removal of President Hosni Mubarak defied a curfew, Al Jazeera reported. Egyptian television reports the ruling party headquarters in Cairo are on fire.

What's the scoop/skinny on this Movements site? Neutral? Lefty? Soros? Thanks.
RedState has a detailed post on Movements.org and Youth Movements up now:
The ‘activists’ have had training.

See the 2008 ‘Youth Movements’ summit. Our State Dept sponsored this.

The ‘Revolution’ is being tweeted everywhere.
I mention this because I can’t find that specific moment on tape. I can’t even find a story about that moment. It’s erased.
And that’s what I think 0bama and crew want to do to the US of A. Give it a fancy name, like de-development. Or make sure you couch a desire to kill off anyone you deem unworthy in soothing terms like ‘health reform’ or ‘choice.’ Tell people a ‘stimulus’ will ‘support’ or ‘save’ jobs in the US, while you send all the work and industry elsewhere. Loot the Treasury, beginning on 9/15/2001 or thereabouts. Set about to create a ‘Governors’ Council’ of 10 ‘governors’ and set aside foreign trade zones, just like the Ottomans did. Prevent profits, exploration, innovation. Sell off intellectual property and slip in military secrets. Obliterate the US, maybe even with an EMP or a device that the nation “can absorb.” Tell others we won’t defend against attacks, and in fact will disarm our capabilities, along with pledging not to retaliate, of course. Hey, throw in Israel just for $hits and grins (not that you could actually succeed, but these people don’t really believe all that ‘stuff’).
What other logical conclusion using any measurement you want would lead anyone anywhere to think that the desire for the destruction of the US is NOT the goal of whoever writes what TOTUS displays or POTUS reads?
May God intervene in their plans. And may the enemies of the US of A flat out rot.
Great info, thanks CB.
I’ve tried not to flood this site with a bunch of info, but I’ve done a bit of searching (like the rest of us ; ) this evening.
I found some interesting information. An Egyptian woman by the name of Dalia Mogahed was Obama’s Faith advisor till just recently. Her father is strongly linked to associates of MB (attached links) along with her counterpart Dr. Epstein. Dr. Epstein is a huge endorser of the MB.
http://globalmbreport.org/?p=3565 (Good read)
http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/publications/id.2987/pub_detail.asp
In 2008, Dalia, along with the Ground Zero Mosque Imam and his wife, and about 30 others gathered in NY for a meeting on improving Muslim Relations.
One of the things discussed was the US support of Muslim Authoritarian gov’ts. It also discussed the Muslim brotherhood and their integration in Egypt and Jordan (wow, just like this week!)
Also discussed was for the next president to have a dialogue with the Iranian leader.
It’s a large report, but worth a glance, if possible a read for later. Looks like Obama definitely used some things there. Then he hired Dahlia for his Faith Advisor after he became prez.
What’s that rhyme about the tangled web....
“Oh what a tangled web we weave,
When first we practise to deceive!”
No wonder Obama is encouraging Mubarek to step down. He’s been a supporter of the Muslim Brotherhood for sometime now.
Here is another link about the crowd reaction and activity on Tuesday. SC: On the link there is also a story listed about people protecting the Egyptian Museum which you might want to post for GGG.

I was reading Barrons about commodity prices. They said basic foods may skyrocket because a number of dictators around the world are laying in large supplies of food to pacify their unhappy people. Personally I try to keep a 3 month supply of food on hand for emergencies and price spikes.
I heard a program talking about the Egypt situation and someone said ElBaradei was associated with the Muslim Brotherhood. Anyone have more information?
Are you sure there were hammers there. The crescent moon is used a lot. For example the Red Crescent is their Red Cross disaster relief organization.
Yep...there are Communist flags there. Sneaky uh? Pretty soon all the hidden groups will surface in this protest...they always do.
Spit coffee on keyboard alert..warning ... warning...
Amen. Amen. Amen.
Any new developments? Just woke up....coffee still working
Good morning, everybody...

Obama Tells Mubarak: Transition ‘Must Begin Now’
CNBC ^ | 2/1/2011 | Staff
Posted on Tuesday, February 01, 2011 10:42:20 PM by FromLori
President Barack Obama told Hosni Mubarak on Tuesday an orderly transition of power in Egypt “must begin now” in remarks critical of the Egyptian leader’s plan to stay in office six more months.
Obama spoke to Mubarak for a half hour by telephone after the long-time U.S. ally announced plans to step down in September and not seek re-election in the face of mass protests in Egyptian cities against his 30-year rule.
“What is clear and what I indicated tonight to President Mubarak is my belief that an orderly transition must be meaningful, it must be peaceful and it must begin now,” Obama said.
A senior administration official said Obama’s conversation with Mubarak was frank and direct and left no doubt that “the time for transition is now, it can’t be put off.”
“He said it was clear how much he (Mubarak) loves his country, and how difficult this is for him. President Obama explained to him that an orderly transition can’t be prolonged, it must begin now,” the official said.
Obama’s comments were the clearest signal to date that Washington believes Mubarak might have to transition out of power sooner, rather than later.

Saleh has been in office for 32 years and was last re-elected in 2006.

The Emirates News Agency has reported that Dalia Mogahed, an Obama Administration faith advisor
Where are all those saying zer0 is a Christian? As stated by you, this is a good read. This is a reassurance to those in the islamic world of do not worry about zer0, he (0) is one of us. This fact certainly is more prevalent each and every day.
If only this information was on the local and national news three or four hours each day. There is ample information for three or four hours to be consumed. This report tells who and what the real zer0 is.
Read the warning (first part of report). Lots of interesting names. I Thanked God, as I read the names of these people. These people are idiots and have no responses worthy of belief when confronted, and this is great for Americans. Their defense is now like the tattered wet toilet paper line. One will get dirty if one breaks through, yet their lines fall and fail. This group has the gall to quote General Dwight D. Eisenhower? These people are mere cockroaches spewing nothing but vile. If people in this group start disappearing, I will have to believe General Eisenhower has once again rallied the troops. I did attempt to read the report but everywhere I went in the report, I read, America is the problem, it's America's fault.
The post of yours is an essay for and of truth, and not a mere post. Thank You.
