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.

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?
Yea! LOLOLOL
Someone else posted To just get ‘Paula Dean’ there and the U.S. press will come running!
Don't think he ever saw that coming. Bwaahaa!
Amazing. I have wondered how much the MB has been able to infiltrate the military . They’be been the stability for the country for a long time.
<....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.
I love it when you guys post my link photos....thanks so much! A picture does speak a thousand words!
Wow...it's really happening?
This is an unprecedented setback for Hitler...er I mean Oblablah! Stalingrad, 1942? Without the American media to cover for him, The King wears no clothes.
Interesting photo from the demonstration today...flag throughout the massive crowd.

oops grabbed wrong think...sorry!
Those tweets were impressive enough.
(how many are thinking "DC!!"?)
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.
Egyptians aren’t fooling around with just a march...they mean business to remove these characters.....humm-mmm...guts to take steps as that....
It’s a good one to follow Johnston....and even link to others from there....also out in search there...June 30...those two seem to be really good sources of what’s going on...ignore those who post several in succession...
Thanks, brutha. The momentum keeps on building.
Great shot from this afternoon......photography was great on this one.
