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
“You could ask the Mod to bump it back to the top of Breaking News”
Here Here
I mean, hear hear (oh, it’s been a long few days)
Ok- I’ll ask the Mods to pop it back up to breaking for now- will start a list for later.
Should Mubarak step aside, would this give the United States a relative calm period for a few days to remove our citizens and non-essentials, or would after only a day or two would anger from the crowd be directed elsewhere, or does Mubarak keep the attention focused on himself for a day or so and help to divert attention away from elsewhere while people escape? I know this is a long question, yet this question bugs me. Any thoughts?
It’s one lllllong blur, eh?
Meanwhile- we can all rest easy- Anderson Cooper has arrived in Cairo.
Oh geez, I guess taking over for AJ, since AJ reporters are being arreted there per twitter.
I agree and Mom please keep me on a ping list so I may be updated if thread moves. Thanking Everyone!
Now reported the AlJ reporters have been released PER REQUEST from US! My, oh my, what a world.
They did, however, confiscate cameras. hard drives etc.
We’re really flexin’ our muscles, lol.
Yes. Pleae start another one.
Mark.
Getting ready to watch the Markets today.......should be pretty interesting and hopefully not bloody!

Those price contols and subsidies have nothing to do with it, nope.
SNORT.
” SNORT. “
Consider the fact that this fool, and his ilk, routinely get ‘air time’ on NATIONWIDE ‘news’ platforms —
‘SNORT’, indeed... ;)
Well, it's not like there are many folks watching it :)
What gets me is the fact that some company's shelling out for those results and the shareholders are putting up with it.
