The BBC is reporting that Egyptian Army tanks have allegedly surrounded the embassies of the United States and United Kingdom. This comes after Israel evacuated its entire embassy staff via helicopter. This is coming in through their live blog, and further details appear scarce. The BBC is quoting an al-Jazeera cable:
2125: Tanks have surrounded the US and British embassies in Cairo, Al-Jazeera reports.
This could be a huge, huge problem. This is similar to 1979 when the Islamic rebels took the US Embassy and held hostages for 444 days.
We were to leave on a tour of Egypt yesterday.The best coverage that I’ve seen is the BBC.
I hope you bought travel insurance!
The company at first said it was go. We told them that they
were crazy to want to start the tour.They called back an
hour later and cancelled. We’re getting either a full refund or a credit for another trip.
If the Muslim Brotherhood takes Egypt, that, or the destruction of the Aswan Dam would be likely..
I’m glad it did. =).....I do understand your fear though. Who really is good enough to be saved is my worry; however, I can’t wait for it to happen!
Shades of history from Iran as our leftists then, Jimma Carter sold out the Shah, so shall Obama on Mubarik.
islam is on the rise, Europe should be very afraid, instead they are passively waiting on their demise.
Aren’t we lucky we have such great, highly intelligent foreign policy leaders like nobama, clintoon and biden? Obviously, they have the best interests of Freedom and the United States in mind. They are so much smarter than anyone else. All praise nobama and his minions.
Bump!
I'm from rural Texas. Everyone everywhere else, especially the Kenyan Coup in DC and including Houston, Dallas, and Austin, is "they", not "we".
“The Muslim Brotherhood takes Egypt - glad I already saw the pyramids, theyll be blown up soon”
And the Sphinx. I`m sure they will ask the Taliban how to go about it. Can`t have things like that offending moohammed.
Those are not tanks, they are Bradley fighting vehicles, not even close to the same thing.
LOL
Not. That's what you mean.

Yes, he is The Ayatollah of All Crapola..
Speaking of fiddling, I noticed that all ten members of Obama’s Egypt Crisis Team met for two hours at the White House this morning while Obama was out watching his daughter play basketball.
Obammy trained the “student protest” leaders.
