Egypt

The people of Egypt have been very non-violent through out this. They are not a violent people, generally. The army, which is conscription, has been noticably, and admirably, non-violent, too.

It's Mubariks police force and supporters that have brought this latest violence overnight, and it's they who are attacking the journalists.

I guess the television crew person with broken jaw wasn't caused by a violent attack. Whether it was a Mubarek supporter or not it was still a form of violence by an Egyptian person. I guess you are watching something different than what is show on the net and television.

I forgot that you judge millions of people by the actions of one or two. And you just ignore stuff I've written if it doesn't suit your purpose.

Nascar, those were Mubarek supporters and police sent by the government to start trouble. Did you see what happened in the square in the past 24 hours at the huge rally? Nothing. Very peaceful. The army and the citizens set up barriers, people were frisked and ID's checked before they were let in, and it was fine.

Meanwhile, a group of yelling, screaming Murbarik supporters trying to start trouble was kept away from there by the army.

Don't worry, Nascar, Dell says Anderson Cooper didn't really get hurt, that was "bs"

He didn't. Saw the tape last night. Anderson has a weaker slap/limp wrist than Obama's throwing arm.

Where have I said that Egyptian people as a whole are violent? You want to put words in my mouth go right ahead. Won't be the first time some one did it.
