A guest is saying that most of the dead were killed by highly trained snipers with head wounds.

They caught an Iraqi, a Syrian and other foreigners with the MB.

Thanks for reporting!!!

There was a thread from Walid Shoebat earlier in the week saying there was evidence that Morsi’s people were sent to Benghazi to kidnap Amb. Chris Stevens. I hope (if it’s true) that the new gov’t makes it public.

I heard a police general, a former deputy interior minister, who said the police are quite mad at what’s happening to the citizens and are racing out there, kissing their families bye bye not knowing whether they’ll come back.

This is a total opposite from two years ago when they were totally despised by the citizens for 30 Mubarak vicious years.

Kristinn, I still think that the army is going to do what to be done to protect the citizens after delivering an ultimatum in a speech outlining what is happening and giving a deadline to shoot to kill anyone with an illegal weapon.

I believe they don’t want to look like the vilains at the end. The problem with martial law if imposed, is the start of Ramadan in a week or so and people need to get out at night plus getting supplies.

With the MB playing religious victims, it’s very hard to impose martial law in Ramadan.

That’s my own analysis, didn’t hear anyone talking about it anywhere, yet.

Depends on how the army handles it. If you give them ROEs that say don't be too rough, only fire after being fired upon, and try and make friends with the populations from which the insurgency comes...yes. If you let the army fight the insurgency tooth and nail with extreme prejudice, and take that fight to the support...then no.

I expect the Egyptians understand that their entire way of life and country is at stake and will not tie the hands of their armed forces.

This has me concerned. We know the US is taking the wrong side in these matters, but wow, this is just blatantly open.

I tend to post some hints on facebook but the Obama folks don’t want to hear it. Can’t be true they think. MB is Al Queda. Hell maybe the conspiracy guys who call them Al CIAda are not that far off.

Islamist protesters detained dozens of officers and central security conscripts inside the Fayoum governorate headquarters,... a security source said on Friday.

The protesters stormed the headquarters earlier today and declared a sit-in inside the building until deposed president Mohamed Mursi and all Muslim Brotherhood leaders who were detained or put under house arrest are released.

The force in charge of securing the building was held inside the building, the source told Aswat Masriya.

This force includes one major general, one colonel and dozens of soldiers, the source added.

The protesters refused to release the detained security personnel.
