Can someone give me some info on what started this and in Tunisia. Is it people uprising because of corruption in politics while having bad living standards?

Is anyone getting you-tubes of Gates' speech, other US officials? They are stressing "nonviolence" and "opening up dialog with the people". I have an idea for a project to apply these recommendations against them.

Johnnybags · Jan 28, 2011

Good, its a precursor to here. All the Gold stolen and the peoples money buys squat. Of course they will riot.

He was just on the link I posted above. He was saying that they should turn the internet and social networks back on. He condemned any violence by the protesters and military/police. He also mentioned that Obama was briefed for 40 minutes about Egypt, and that he is monitoring a fluid situation to see if protests spread to the rest of the mideast.

The ruling party headquarters is burning to the ground in Cairo right now.

Not as long as we have our television. The only time Americans riot is when our sports teams lose or win championships.

I hate the Lakers.

MSNBC breaking news.......only 3 days behind

Interesting how listening to Al Jazeera, they are saying the Muslim Brotherhood has not been involved, and has mostly been a youth-led protest without any leadership to speak of. Yet Hannity was going on about how the Muslim Brotherhood was involved in this and how harmful it would be if they gained power.

Attempting to shut down all Internet & mobile phone service would certainly do it, too.

And yeah, Will, that about sums it up. Fraudulent election, inspiration from recent uprising in Tunisia due to corruption (some of it exposed directly by Wikileaks), poor standard of living and extremely oppressive dictator.

They will gain some power if a new govt goes in . They do not need to protest . Basically your looking at unemployed kids , uneducated , no job opputunities , no future .

Muslim Brotherhood has become involved, btw, calling for military to force out Mubarak's regime.

Thanks for that update. I know Al Jazeera isn't necessarily the best source.

The US reporters live in Cairo did excellent reporting all walks of social/economic/ages life in Egypt protested. It wasn't militants or just young people.

It's a movement against an Elitist Puppet controlled abroad. You listen to all the US politicians on what should be allowed... yet it's practically banned here in the US.

Obama... "Egyptians have rights, rights to protests, rights to assembly peacefully."

Yeah Obama... Demonstrat wearing a mask in Washington DC and you're Arrested. Pure 100% Propaganda for the planet to soak upon.

Bruno · Jan 28, 2011

Obama speaks from prepared speech, walks off without taking questions.

I think Hillary wrote that speech for him.
