You can bet the farm that when the smoke and dust settles, the Muslim Brotherhho will be in total control.

The Muslim Brotherhood can thank the United States for giving them another Country.

Why and how? The United States put obama in the White House. obama instigated, encouraged,andbehind the scenes , aided and abetted the Muslim Brotherhood and undercut, a/k/a stabbed Murback [sp?] in the back at each opportunity.

Chilling description on air now from @andersoncooper of mob roughing up him and his team near Liberation Square...

Poor Anderson, must have got his new expensive hairdo knocked out of shape.

“And I feel like a damned conspiracy theorist and don’t know how to handle this.”

Hang in there, as a Christian I know who wins in the end. However, He told us to be “salt and light” so we can’t just sit back and sit on our hands. Also, “faith without works is dead” so we have to act. But what can we do? Do what we can, keep being “salt and light” in every place we can. Facebook, Myspace, whatever you like. Proclaim truth where you can while we can. We may not be able to much longer.

Then we should have taken all our tanks, F-16’s, Missile systems and 1.8 Billion Dollars per year in aid away also.

Not to mention, let the Suez Canal and the SUMET pipeline fall into hostile Jihadi hands. Oh, and don't forget the Iran Nuclear arms race. Imagine the MB having Nuclear weapons to distribute amongst the Islamofacsist World.

It goes well beyond a small civil revolution.

Its being covered “live” now by FoxNews. I wonder how many of the pro-Mubarak forces are the police who are now dressed up as civillians.

What gave them away? The herd of police horses they rode in on?

Seriously, what group of random pro-Mubarak partisans with no internet spontaneously decides to show up on horseback with whips and clubs?

If "ham handed street theater" was an Olympic event, the Egyptian police would be taking home the gold.

I’m with the mob on this one. As far as cooper and his gang getting roughed up, in my opinion, it could not happen to nicer guys. And too, couldn’t Cooper convince the mob that he is on their side. He hates the United States of america just as much as they do.

Judith Miller on Fox says Mubarak’s strategy is for the ‘silent’ majority’ of Egyptians to stand up for him against the protesters so he can finish out his term in office.

We know that. But the media is doing it’s best to convince the idiot class that 1 million Egyptians should tell the other 80 million how to live (shria)

“It’s how to handle personal issues that baffles me.”

“But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren?
And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren!”

This is not just team enthusiasm, it is world changing/life changing truth.

will the 85% of the American Jews that voted for him, wake up?

Unlikely, and even if they did it would be too little, too late; Most American Jews don't care about Israel which they see as a personal liability or embarrassment. Politics is like Sports to them and they want to be popular and successful.

Pro Mubarak supporters are trying to get the military to fire upon the protesters.

Trying to make more extreme violence.

Yes, but she is NOT reporting. She is assuming she can speak for the other 80 million Egyptians. It’s called personal opinion. And it’s no better than yours and mine.
