Frankly, I think (.)bama should fly in and organize the flights out. In fact, as the commander, he should be the last to leave or go down with the ship so to speak.

I think it's a safe bet that would be the MSM's performance standard if GWB was still president.

It certainly looks like one, but, the receiver isn’t in view. It could also be an old “03” or “1917” Springfield. The Shah’s military may have had some old US small arms. It looks US.

If you’ll notice the end of the barrel there are two. The ‘03/06 only had the one. That second barrel underneath I think is part of the gas recoil mechanism.

“Who are they in danger from?”

I’ve been following this closely since my friend’s daughter was there for one month as an exchange student. They were to leave in four days, but were lucky to fly out this morning.

Mob rule is taking over. People are being robbed. There is no police protection. Fires are being set, and no one comes to put them out. Looters are not only looting stores, they are going into the wealthy neighborhoods outside the main cities.

The last report was that 10,000 prisoners all over Egypt either escaped or were allowed to go free. Guards left their posts and opened the gates. Yesterday, it was reported that 5,000 of those prisoners came from prisons in Cairo.

Banks, grocery stores, and restaurants are closed. ATM machines don’t work; banks have closed. The government disabled cell phone signals and the internet.

There was a report on Fox that an Egyptian gov’t source told them Mubarak is considering an “orderly transition” of not standing for reelection, paving the way for an open election in the fall.

I would be surprised if it gets that far, honestly. ElBaradei is fanning the flames and trying to keep the tension high.

But if it DOES go to that, it will be interesting to see how it plays out.

I’ll be surprised if Mubarak makes it through Tuesday.

I figured so. I’ll bet the barrel is burned out though.

Mob rule is taking over.

My question was rhetorical but that is exactly the answer I was leaning toward. Seems that the freedom lovers just want to grab as much stuff as they can first and worry about freedom later.

Why bother?

These people are by and large the worst mistakes America ever made in granting citizenship.

Scum with no American loyalties, here only for our generous hand-outs.

Hesham Mohamed Hadayet disgusting family is probably readying their goats to be brought back to America gratis and get Federal relocation assistance.

Candor, look at this photo - he looks like a broken man. What to speak of AIDS or other wasting disease.

You and me both. Especially with ElBaradei involved.

It looks in great shape — but that was 1979. If it’s still recognizable after three decades in the stone age, it’s unlikely that it would fire and cycle.
