Another day of megadeath and as I watch on Al Jazeera at 18:00 CET I believe the worst will begin in one hour when ten or hundreds of thousands refuse to obey the curfew. Already some police have opened up with live fire on persons [unarmed] simply passing BY a police station and another group that were shot from helicopter gunships........I begin to think civil war is not impossible. I'm not very sympathatic with the Muslim Brotherhood, but most are just simple human beings, unarmed, men, boys, women, girls and children being murdered for their beliefs and desires for democratic fair play. The words from the USA and Obama are disgusting in the extreme....making it all sound like how Morci was handled and his supporters shot and under seige was 'democratic', necessary or legitimate....
Now Egypt is in the hands of the military and no one else!....and I fear it will long remain that way.....that should suit the US just fine. What is happening now makes Mubarak look like a nice guy who used kit gloves compared to what is now happening.
Robert Fisk is in Cairo reporting and, as always, he is wonderful to listen to......He should have some great article out tomorrow!
