We should start a pool:

First Uncle Sam effigy burned
First Obama effigy burned
First Joy Behar effigy burned
First beheading
First attack against Israel once Mubarak is overthrown

Any time the fires and vandalism start coming out, you know that it isn’t just people wanting to improve things any more - it is people wanting to destroy things.

Maybe they feel that their lives have been destroyed by 30 years of tyannical rule. And maybe they want to destroy the lives of those that destroyed theirs.

Seems logical to me.

“You have just pinpointed the problem in Egypt.
There are currently no good guys in positions of leadership.”

Actually, other than Israel, there are no good guys in positions of leadership in ANY Middle East country.

So the question becomes - do we support the better of the bad, or create more Irans?

Yeah I hear Jesus and OBOZO are neck in neck in a recent poll done of youth kids...SICKENING!! HEAR ME...GOD WILL NOT BE MOCKED or will HE SHARE HIS throne with a mare man!! That’s two strikes against OZERO...siding with the mooslim brotherhood against Israel and thinking he is a god. If I were THE DEAR LEADER, I’d be shaking in my boots tonight!

If the rioters would get some surgical tubing they could extend their Molotov Cocktail range by three to four times that of throwing.

What makes you so certain those were Mobarak's camel jockeys??? On the PBS newshour they were described as the lowest order of ecomically deprived (redneck) scoundrels in Egypt. Kinda reminded me of what's his name's recent description of the "whoopin an hollerin of teaparty types" in America!!! You know... that "Hardball" Chris Matthews dope!!!

I can't exactly explain my almost gleeful feeling as I saw those courageous camel jockeys, armed with nothing but whips, charge into those ignorant, media inspired agitators with their banners written in ENGLISH, and then be pulled off their camels and be beaten by the mob!!!

I still wish America had sent some brave people like that into the "rent-a-mobs" in Berkeley in the 1970's who were inspired by the media and Walter Cronchite types to give up on what thousands had already given their lives for... the integrity and reputation of the nation Kennedy promised would "fight any foe" because they wanted the money for "The Great Society" and "War On Poverty" instead of keeping our word as an honorable nation!!!

“How revolting”

Pure democracy is not a pretty thing.

That is why we were formed as a Republican Democracy.

We pledge allegiance to the Republic for which we stand, not the democracy (for which no other than the meanest dog is willing to stand toward).

Pure democracy, like all other tyrannical mechanisms, inevitably degenerate into anarchy.

I give them credit for being smarter than the typical American rioters who only burn down their own neighborhoods.

Yeah, the Muslim Brotherhood sure wouldn’t do any of that torture stuff, and they will be even friendlier toward Israel. < / sarcasm >

BTW, isn’t it interesting that cab drivers and people who actually work for a living are the ones opposing the fundamentalists (aka, ACORN types)?

Who know...all I care is that they’re fighting the Brotherhood...that can only be good.

Agree, this is not normally a tactic of Governments.

This has the MO of anarchists and Islamist.
Remember UK “student” riots.

LOL - it’s a no-brainer as to which side this country should take. Anyone at all familiar with Egypt’s history knows full well that Mubarak is the best they’ll ever have, and the Brotherhood will be a nightmare, not just for us, but for the Egyptians, especially the women and the Christians.
