Video of Egypt's bloody clashes as protesters defy curfew in Cairo

Thousands of protesters in Egypt defied an evening curfew in Cairo on Saturday night, standing their ground in a resounding rejection of President Hosni Mubarak's attempt to hang onto power with promises of reform and a new government. Clashes broke out as police protecting the Interior Ministry near the site opened fire at a funeral procession for a dead protester, possibly because it came too close to the force. Video from the scene showed crowds of protesters running through the streets as tear gas canisters were fired in amongst them. Several young men could later be seen staggering through the streets sporting bloodied wounds. Some of the severely injured were taken to a nearby mosque which was being used as a makeshift medical centre.
Cairo appeared to be relatively calm early Sunday as residents reflected after another day and night of protest and political upheaval in the Egyptian capital.

Dear Tourists, we felt that our history has been a bit regular in the past years, so we didn't want you to get bored!! We thought of adding some spices to our extremely interesting Egyptian History, so in the past weeks we were just creating a new story to tell. We are done with the spice up, so WELCOME to Egypt with its new Flavor!! :)

@Egyptians, MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD???

MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD when Muhammadans conquered Egypt & DESTROYED THEIR CULTURE BY:

a] murdering their male?

b] forced marriages with their women to have Muhamaddan-looking children?

c] forced their people to abandon their God?

d] forced their people to proclaim 5 times a day a false prophet named Muhammad?

Thus Mohammad FORCED peoples TO BE MUSLIMS proclaiming LYINGLY A false PROPHET THAT HAD NO WITNESS!

EGYPT WILL NEVER BE A GREAT CIVILIZATION AGAIN!

AMEN
