Makes me proud to be a woman to see their courage and solidarity

Don't get me wrong, the footage of that woman being stripped and beaten made me nauseous and was disgusting of them, but we've had much more footage of them beating men in similar fashion which got very little reaction from the press. Your genitalia shouldn't dictate how much this matters, its wrong for ANYONE to be treated like this.

Egyptian military is on CIA's payroll.

Seriously when are you idiots gonna achieve independence ?

@siamco,

You had a clue, so you opened your mouth and the clue that came out was that these Egyptian women should be stomped to death by the Egyptian Islamic Sociopaths they were protesting against. Your second clue, was that the Egyptian military receives American aide and ergo, thinks they should become Islamic Sociopaths and stomp Egyptian women. That's complete idiocy. So let this American set all of you Islamic Sociopaths straight. Stop the insanity! Stop murdering! Got it?

@BertGriffin88 Where I was born and raised, it was considered a wise thing to shut your mouth when you don't have a clue. These women are protesting against the violence exerted by the American owned Egyptian military. What does this have to do with Islam?

PS: Don't take my word for the US providing 1/4 of the Egyptian military budget. Look it up in the f*cking Wikipedia under Egyptian Armed Forces or just google it.

@BertGriffin88 its a combination of all 3 of those things you mention. Dont expect a thriving civilaztion from this part of the world for atealst another 300 years. Islam has stained them

@coffeescup Western feminist like you wouldn't last a day in the middle east. They would pull a laura logan on your ass.

GO WOMEN DO NOT BE AFRAID.

[BertGriffin88]

A bunch of Islamic Sociopaths relentlessly stomped these women. It appeared that these women were uncnscious. Were these women killed? All of the men in the Middle East must be boderline monsters. Is it genetic? Is it their insane Islamic Sociopathic upbringing? What do these mothers teach their sons that they can't wait to go out and kill someone? Why are the Islamic people so damned crazy? Didn't any of their Gawds teach peace&love? Why are they such mean miserable brutes? They're so inhumane!

Women are first property of their parents or husbands.
