Peaceful revolution, however, is unable to take place here:
Egypt Erupts: Arab Spring cradle seethes with fresh unrest - YouTube

A Weekend Of Violence in Cairo - Image Gallery - YouTube

To equate what's going on in Egypt at Tahrir Square to pepper spray at a college campus is just insulting.

Funny how Obama has not commented on the violence in Cairo. I guess when you back the oppressive military then you just look the other way.
