From FOX:
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.
From TWITTER:
WashingtonPost: Clinton: We urge #Egypt authorities to allow peaceful protest, reverse unprecedented steps it has taken to cut off communications less than 20 seconds ago
The early Egyptians were idolaters and the devout Muslims view them as the Taliban in Afghanistan view their Buddhist ancestors.
Watching this idiot in the White House try to “talk” his way out of this threat is comical! Bammy’s latest “solution” is to have Mubarak “step back”. What ever the hell that means! In short, Obama has sided with the “protesters” and has threatened to cut all aid to Mubarak if he fails to give in to the demands of the rioters.
Of course, there is no US Military presence there to back these strategically vague words coming from the “smartest” (Peace Prize winning) man on the Planet.
A very good and concerning point.
Thank you for update. I tried to get a live feed on this computer. Just uses up to much bandwidth. So I am on this thread looking for any news at on on this.
whew... Are our people out? Any flights taking off? I may have to go off the deep end here. Where's zer0?
Intelwire: AQ is moving jihad funds from Iraq to the following countries:
Yemen, Lebanon, Palestine, Egypt, Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco, Sudan, Somalia, Jordan.
Found it interesting that Foxnews put up a map showing the following countries currently in unrest:
Algeria, Tunisia, Cairo/Egypt, Yemen, Jordan, Lebanon.
(This was originally from 2 days ago and I’ve reposted again only because I find it of interst and concern).
What? I am going off the deep end if I keep hearing this and it is true. I will be having to have quiet time in a padded room.
Have a friend in Cairo, no contact since early Thursday, when she said she was OK.
And General Sami Annan is the third general getting a senior position in the new government.
another one confirming an apparent military coup about to happen.
Definitely a better solution than anarchy followed by a coup by the MB.
This whole thing is being calculated and planned carefully. They know that America is now so weak and fearful that they will be able to move unopposed. The UN will agree that Israel needs to go, and avoid further conflict.
The USA? Not even a concern. Of course we will hear lots of stern Democratic absolutes come from the White House, but talk is about all that will come from them. And Obama cutting all aid to Mubarak and his military would be exactly what the Islamofascists need to succeed.
Apparently, two mummies were destroyed last night. They went in through the top of the building.

It has that appearance and I’m anything but a conspiracy theorist.
Terrible!!
Mubarak might think he’s saving his skin by naming his military and intelligence cronies to Cabinet. But how long before they decide he’s getting in their way?
