Unrest in Egypt

Who the hell still attacks people on camels?

A camel would give a mobile highpoint in a mob scene like it would be there in Cairo. Would be pretty to go around clunking people on the head from on of those. Only thing would be just how much of that crowd the camel would want to deal with.

I'm surprised they are wasting so much gas (assuming gas is the fuel) on all these Molotovs. You would think gas would be going at a premium in Cairo right now.

The Mubarak family's personal worth is ~$40 billion, so they can afford it.

What's left of the protesters is about to be finished off. NBC News estimates less than 2000 remain and they're surrounded and barricaded. Looks like the protesters are gathering elsewhere. Hard to tell how many there are.

Cannot get this image out of my mind. Or the words: "I'm watching my country fall apart."

LPC: Tahrir protesters expect renewed attacks in the early hours of the morning as news crews disapear

Egypt and the rest of the Mediterranean countries are all on fire, creating a snowball that is Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Iran 1979

Players: Egypt, Tunisia, Israel, Spain, Greece, Italy, England, Ireland, Russia, the Mediterranean, Franz Ferdinand
Advanced by: Glenn Beck (see video above)
Sample quote: "The entire Mediterranean is on fire. More than that, it's not just the surrounding countries of the Mediterranean; it also spreads up here — you have the U.K. and Ireland already with riots in the street… I think there is a chance that Tunisia is our Archduke Ferdinand moment… He was the guy assassinated in Sarajevo, June 1914. A month later, Austria and Hungary declared war against Serbia and the rest is called World War I. I believe a snowball is being formed, and it is starting to roll… You can at least prepare to not get caught in the snowball. I'm going to show you in a minute how this isn't Berlin. This is Iran, 1979."

Bill Ayers taught the Muslim Brotherhood how to protest

Players: Bill Ayers, Code Pink, President Obama, the Muslim Brotherhood
Advanced by: Kristinn Taylor and Andrea Shea King on BigGovernment.com
Sample quote: "The question is begged: What have Obama's allies Ayers, Dohrn and Code Pink taught the Muslim Brotherhood and other anti-Mubarak organizations in Egypt about using protests, riots and the modern social media to coordinate their actions to undermine the Mubarak regime?"

Escalating anarchy in Egypt is merely a prelude to revolt in the streets in the U.S.

Players: President Obama's obvious authoritarianism, the people, guns, Facebook
Advanced by: Wayne Allyn Root
Sample quote: "Will Obama cut off access to Facebook and Twitter? Will he try to shut down talk radio and FOX News? Obama and his Democratic allies have already suggested doing that (before a true crisis) with "The Fairness Act." Will Obama attempt to ban guns?... Will Obama call in the military to contain the riots of unemployed, hungry, angry youth here in America's biggest cities? Will he allow free speech - even if massive protests call for Obama to step down?"

Leftists and Islamists have joined forces in Egypt to set the stage for the coming of the Islamic Antichrist

Players: Leftists, Islamists, scripture, the Islamic Antichrist
Advanced by: Author Joel Richardson on WorldNetDaily
Sample quote: "First, both leftist and Islamist ideologies share a populist, collectivist, and even utopian political vision. While the American ideal seeks 'economic freedom,' leftist and Islamists both seek 'economic justice' or radical wealth redistribution as a definitive goal. Second, both the Leftists and Islamists are now using the vehicle of riots, violent protests and revolution to achieve their goals."

The Muslim Brotherhood is attempting to enact Sharia law in the United States

Players: The Muslim Brotherhood, "front organizations," Homeland Security Adviser John Brennan, Allah
Advanced by: Bearded crazy Frank Gaffney
Sample quote: "Janet Napolitano, Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, is incessantly meeting with Muslim Brotherhood front organizations and I think has in the past, if not today, employed people who are associated with them."

Bomb Iran

Players: Iran, Israel, bombs
Advanced by: Guess who!
Sample quote: "I don't think there's much time to act. And I think the fall of a Egyptian government committed to the peace agreement will almost certainly speed that timetable up."
 
Re: Unrest in Egypt

Looks like the military have picked sides :(

ALERT: Just in from witness to AJA: army blocking food and medical supplies from reaching protesters in Tahrir Sq.
Eye witness to #Aljazeera: medical equipment confiscated in streets surrounding Tahrir Square to stop them from reaching protesters

Also:
CNN confirmed mass SMS sent today to all mobile users in #Egypt urging them to demonstrate pro-Mubarak
After protesters discovered that Army releases thugs, they decided to hold them in the Metro station

Re: Unrest in Egypt

The reports are getting scarce now...a sign that the Mubarak forces have the upper hand (and that it is 4AM there)

LPC: Waves of thugs, in greater numbers than before, carrying white weapons and molotov cocktails attempting to enter Tahrir
Crouched behind the varricade, a man throws a rock over my head, abother shuffles by offering water
Mubarak thugs firing bullets at us now at Abd El Meneim Reyad square. Dozens injured
LPC:Tahrir protesters desperately asking news crews to remain in Tahrir fearing reports of renewed attacks.
Friend in Tahrir telling us of they are being shot at. We left Tahrir last night, they wouldn't come with us.

Mubarak's snipers are shooting at the feet of the protesters in the square, including women and children.
