Egypt: Internet down, police counterterror unit up

reply to post by SLAYER69


Too many busines and other productions now on my desk,nice to see you too!

I saw that this will come after Gaza war. Its too early to say, what is the outcome of this historical day - situation is very tense and everything is still possible. But historical movement in balance of force is imminent, thats for sure!

I will get back to discussion soon!

oner reporter saying he thinks the military may be co-operating with protestors as he witnessed protesters on a troop carrier waving and cheering as the carrier drove reasonably around.. ???

bit unusual if their is gun fire..

They were using live ammunition yesterday. The reason they downed the internet is because videos of police snipers taking out protestors hit the internet. (of course it would also cripple communication for today)

Don't let the government have the power to shut down out internet in the same situation.. as they are actively trying to do:

The CNN feed just had a row of about 15 tanks (tracked ones) go down the road with about 4-5 wheeled APC's with them. Protesters are swarming over them right now.

www.cnn.com...

The tanks et al just ignored the protestors and drove on. Doesn't look like anyone hurt thankfully. Now the protestors have set up a blockade of some sort. After the tanks went through.

Cnn on tv reporting some soldiers getting out of vehicles, and patting the backs of protesters.

Yeah and Obama via proxy through Biden is supporting Mubarak...I bet Obama wishes he could do the same...like to Fox...whether you like Fox or not the Govt should not be able to quiet or trample free speech...

more than 1 child killed by police I've heard..

One by a tear-gas can I believe it was. the other was 14 or 17 and was shot in the head earlier..

This is not good..

What about Iran during the Presidential elections...? They did it//
Also China to limited degree against certain web sites...

I think the "cutting edge" for us is about our guts to draw links between happenings in all over Middle East these days...

Democracy is coming in this very great storm of democracy to arabic countries, and puppet governments are shaking. What I see, everything what we witness today, is fueled and started in latest Israeli wars against Lebanon and Gaza. Those crisis show us that huge difference between governments and puplic opinions in all over Middle East.

End of peave negotiations between Israel and Palestinian people has fueled this situation to its breaking point, like Arabic Union has warned western countries... US and Israeli supported governments are falling now.

What next? Jordania, Saudi Arabia? - Egypt in hands of democracy will change situation deeply in region, and for favor of Palestinian people too. Next night, these hours will show us, if Arabic countries are truly ready for democracy... But what ever happens now, there is now way back after "day of anger".

Like I said in other threads, lets just hope that if the Egyptian government is toppled then it will be replaced by a "true" democratic republic with freedom of speech, freedom of and from religion (desperately needed in the Middle East), etc.

It will be a sad day in history if the new government turns out to be an Islamic Sharia state like that of Iran and Saudi Arabia that is disadvantages to non-muslims and women.

Our news here has read a statement that came out of our State Department. It sounds like they are coming down on the side of the rioters and the citizens. That statement says it all ... Egypt is about to have a complete change and our gov't backs it.

Info Here

We have raised with governments in the region the need for reforms and greater openness and participation in order to respond to their people’s aspirations – and we will continue to do so.

dont know if its been stated but i heard on Fox News that the cell phone towers in egypt were shut down too.

It's true

Something big is going down in the middle east right now, just hope it doesnt get outer control. I wonder if perhaps USA and Europe are heading down that route? scarey times

Must watch...

its only a matter of time before we see this in America, our dollar will soon be no more yousee the signs everywhere, and they keep advertising that end of america commercial over and over on satelite radio! and the gold commercials also, and just yesterday in lascruces and Alamogordo signs to sell your gold and silver down every major street, the people in the know see this coming and when it happens there will be unrest in america , and best believe they will shut down the Internet here, which a great tool of communication for the people, the nwo and tptb have shifted there agenda to a new speed , and when this is all over there will be a new order in place and a new Internet, Internet 2 there is a great and vast plan in place and it is not planned for out benefit. alot of prophicies are coming true in every religion, disasters are becoming more frequent, we are in the beginnings of bad things to come, its been nonstop crazy story after another since the newyear , a tipping point has occurred, and only gets worse as the days go bye. god be with us all.

Police firing on the army as I understand it.

Just watching the protesters cheering the army who are giving the thumbs up and waving the Egyptian flag.
