USA Today reports from Cairo at least 10 killed, hundreds wounded in Egypt today on the Muslim Brotherhood's (Ikwhan) "Day of Rejection" of the Egyptian military's removal of President Morsi from office this week after a popular uprising.

Meanwhile, the U.S. State Department admitted Secretary of State John Kerry was indeed on his yacht in Nantucket on Wednesday as the revolution in Egypt succeeded:

I guessed right.
Own TV just reported that the MB on the 15 May bridge had weapons.
The blood and smoke in the streets obscure the reality that the mobs of the Muslim Brotherhood speak only for themselves. By all independent accounts, the brotherhood is not the voice of the people, but only of the mob. Cairo is in such chaos that nobody even knows how many dead and wounded litter the streets, and which side shot them all. The television images, as always, distort reality, and leaders in Europe and in the United States draw distorted conclusions. Theyre told by the media on the ground that the death and destruction must be the fault of the government and the army.

#MB protestors firing at houses and residents from 15th of may bridge Right Now
Tear gas started.
I saw some guys helping an injured MB. Maybe they started “creating casualties” by shooting their own.
MB calls the world terrorists to come to Egypt “because peace ceased to exist since Wednesday!”
Something is happening on May bridge.
I see panicked animals running back, it has to be security forces coming at them or a large group of residents ( I hope not)
Damn! No sound on two computers for a while now.
I don’t know if the animals broke part of the bridge railings. I see people going at the breach and looking below.
Sound is back.
A general, most likely retired, as a guest.
Masked Gunmen with auto weapons firing at people! Could be foreign “elements” thirty of them were captured in Rabaa Wednesday.
The female anchor is talking all the time, where’s the general.
GOOD MOVE, THOUGH. THE BROADCAST TO THE WORLD IS TOTALLY IN ENGLISH,
She’s talking about the media abroad on not covering the truth and calling this “peacefully” demonstration.
Four policemen killed in Gharbeyya governorate.
Later...
Thanks Maggie. It would seem that even Saudi Arabia and other ME countries are removing support from the Muslim Brotherhood at this point, yet Obama continues to give support. One has to ask why?? Any answers one may come up with are truly chilling.

Adding to their stress the media is being targeted by some and its very difficult to tell who’s against you. FOX photographer was taken out by a sniper with one shot to the head. Doesn’t bode well for a restful sleep
Thanks for all you are doing to keep the truth on he front burner.
Attack on the Azbakiya police station has been beaten and animals arrested.
More than one bldg. in Ramsis are on fire by Molotovs.shooting at houses is continuing.
Huge amount of weapons. I saw a masked group with weapons walking in broad daylight...is the self-imposed media ignorance going to continue?
In Giza Egyptians are cordoning a church to protect it from the MB!
Later...
Why? Look at his middle name that’s why enough for him!
Some of the ‘missing’ Benghazi weapons?
Most European countries are AGAINST THE US POLICY TOWARD EGYPT.
Make the cordoning of church plural...CHURCHES ARE PROTECTED BY EGYPTIANS.
the original owners of Egypt DESERVE protection.
Exactly. That is the only answer possible to the question.
‘The Taliban is in the building’.......
marked for later
