This is why the news media's gutting of their foreign news bureaus has really come back to haunt them. For instance: an experienced ME reporter, hopefully fluent in Arabic, could wander through the demonstrators and pick up some clues. What languages and dialects were being spoken? How about foreign accents? He might be able to tell if the majority of the protesters he came across were Cairene, Egyptian, or from somewhere else. I think that would be handy info to have when trying to sort this all out. Brian Williams, for instance, would be totally useless in this department. That guy gets paid megabucks and the foreign bureaus get gutted.

That's very true....

There is likely some PLO, Hezbollah, Iranian and Al Qaida operatives mixed in with them. The MB is massive and far more entrenched in their society than many realize. They are surely supporting and rallying the locals in this fight.
