Egypt's army steps up campaign against protesters

At least nine people have been killed in Egypt and more than 350 injured in the past two days of clashes between protesters and security forces in Cairo.

Soldiers have cleared Tahrir Square of protesters. And footage showed troops beating demonstrators and burning their tents.

Al Jazeera has filmed exclusive video of what appears to be a member of the military shooting into a crowd of fleeing protesters.

Al Jazeera's Rawya Rageh reports from Cairo.

I would bet that none of those police are Egyptian !

How could someone attack their own people who are striving for peace and freedom?

Dear Egyptians,

.

It is clear that the terrorist government cops and army will never let the common people live free and safe from tyrannical rule.

.

I say start killing as many government, police and army officers (targeted assasssinations) and do not stop until they start getting the message. Also start bombing the shit out of mobs of retarded terrorist police like these. They are all in one place. IED's work great.

. - CHEERS!
