Egyptian security and medical officials say an American has been killed in the Mediterranean coastal city of Alexandria during clashes between supporters and opponents of Egypt's embattled President Mohammed Morsi.

Alexandria security chief Gen. Amin Ezz Eddin told Al-Jazeera TV that an American was killed Friday in Sidi Gabr Square while photographing the battles between opposition youth and members of the Muslim Brotherhood, from which Morsi hails.

A medical official told The Associated Press the American was wounded by gunshots and died at the hospital.

Six Egyptians have been killed in days of clashes ahead of nationwide protests Sunday demanding Morsi's removal.

The State Department said Friday that Americans should defer nonessential travel to Egypt, citing the uncertain security situation. It also said it would allow nonessential staff and the families of personnel at the U.S. Embassy in Cairo to leave Egypt until conditions improve.

The Valerie Jarrett of Egypt, is on the run unless he is going to die in his burning office in Mokattam!

I'd have to see that to believe that. Oblablah and Jarret would take what they'd perceive to be an Egyptian Tea Party rebellion personally. So what's sacrificing a few billion in assets and bribes -- and however many American lives it takes in order to quell the anti-Muzzie Bro-hood Egyptian TP rebellion?

<....we can expect...the worse-case scenario”....>

If ‘O’ gets involved for sure it’ll make thinks worse....We already know he supports the wrong side there and favorable to the Muslim Brotherhood......more importantly the Egyptian people know just what he is....BAnners throught the cities saying he supports terrorism are plentiful.

Might be why the media isn’t covering this....still trying to make him seem something he isn’t....

Stunning that the Egyptians see this...and the dumb idiots here can’t see him as he is.
