New clashes outside US Embassy in Cairo
Reuters on Russia Today ^ | September 13, 2012

Egyptian security forces have used tear gas on a raging crowd of demonstrators near the US Embassy in Cairo. Several dozen people have reportedly been injured as the police dispersed the stone-throwing demonstrators.

Riot police have managed to push a group of several hundred protesters back in Cairo's side streets near the embassy.­

Some of the protesters have been injured, state news agency MENA reported, giving no further details. Witnesses reporting the incident on Twitter said as many as several dozen people may have been injured.

The incident comes just a day after some 2,000 demonstrators gathered around the US embassy, while a group of the most conservative protesters tore down the American flag and replaced it with a black banner bearing the traditional Islamic message, “There is no god but Allah and Muhammad is His Prophet.”

When did radicals become conservatives?

Basically anyone the default media doesn't like is a "conservative."

"Conservative" is just a substitute for the old fashioned "bad guy" or "villan."

Whoever punctures the default media's fairy-tale view of reality is a "conservative." It actually makes sense in an odd way.

Looks like Obama unleashed the gates of hell. Nothing like putting in a left wing rabid evil moron into the highest office of the nation. Bad on us.

Wow!

I thought all you did was put up dumb ass vanity posts.

.....and here you are actually replying to an existing thread, seemingly without seeking personal attention.

Who cares? Zero is giving a speech in NV, a swing state and the media needs the public to look the other way. The developments in Egypt and the Mideast are only relevant to serve 0bamao’s political ambitions.

So the apologizin' did not work. Maybe they should go out and grovel for forgiveness.

Wait till the muzzies are done with their prayers on Friday. If they stay true to pattern, they will be coming out like maniacs. You would think that praying would turn people more peaceful, with islamos it is exactly the opposite.

I love it when I read of muslims beating and killing other muslims. It is one of the few things... that in today’s world... gives me a warm fuzzy feeling.

"...conservative..."

I thought I had heard it wrong. How can that word be used in that situation (unless you (not you, stocksthatgoup) have a DNC-dictated agenda)?

Noticed this on the CBS Evening News—the female reporter called the Muslim extremists “conservative Muslims”. No seeBS there!

I’ve never been zotted, so I don’t know how that works. I think it’s more of a “time out” in most cases. You can still ping “the comedian” or “pissant” for that matter. I just tried and the pings went through. So it would seem that either (1) the zots were not permanent, or (2) the zot works differently than I think it does or (3) the posters in question elected to stop posting.

The Liberal press in the US loves to use that term ...

The crazy, radical Islamic fundamentalists? The folks who want a theocracy? The ones who hate women and don't let them work, get an education, or drive cars? The guys who want to live in the Seventh Century???? Those are Conservatives -- you know: they like a traditional kind of society, and they think that a lot of modern western ideas of the past few decades are leading society in the wrong direction -- classic "Conservatives", right?

Oh. You were picturing Ronald Reagan, Chuck Norris, Paul Ryan as good examples of Conservatives?? Nope. Sorry. For the US media, the Islamic Rage Boy is what a Conservative looks like: primitive, crazy, hate-filled.

Mubarak looking good right about now

He may have been a corrupt dictator. However, he kept things relatively stable over there, and kept a tight lid on the crazy islamos.

Democracy works best with countries who are civilized and responsible. Otherwise the flawed nature of the people rises to the top.

The beast of islam is competing against itself for having taken on America. Libya was the where the bar was set. The beast in the other islamic nations will try to raise the bar. It is the nature of the beast of islam. This will not end well. Our people should have been gone from all islamic nations six months ago.
