I hope the Cairo Embassy folks un-ass the place safely. If they can't and it comes down to a us or them situation they should not go easy.

What gets me is we are still giving Muslim fundamentalists there money.

Two weeks ago I had an Army Lt. tell me that Egypt is still one of our best allies, and Egyptians are still very pro-American.  I told him that he needs his head examined.


I believe that there ARE Egyptians who may feel that way.

Unfortunately, they aren't even close to being in power.

Security Message to U.S. Citizens No. 12: Violent Demonstrations in Vicinity of Embassy Perimeter, November 25, 2012

November 25, 2012
The Embassy wishes to inform U.S. citizens of sporadic clashes in the vicinity of the Embassy.  Protestors have pelted police lines just outside the Embassy’s North Gate entrance, with some Molotov cocktails thrown in the same direction.  While some rocks have landed on the Embassy compound, there is no indication at this time that the Embassy itself is a target.  Embassy personnel have been advised to stay out of open outdoor space within the compound, and that absent an essential reason to depart, Embassy employees should remain inside until the current activity subsides.  As the security situation around the Embassy remains fluid and unpredictable, U.S. citizens are strongly urged to avoid coming to the Embassy at this time...

What they're saying is, "there are some assholes who dont like the US hanging out around the outside of the compound. Dont come here unless you want D-bags to throw bricks at you and possibly get kidnapped if some AQ type show up. Stand by for updates". That doesnt really affect their ability to protect US interests very much, and the .mil still has a plan for NEO should it come to that. Only thing that may be limited would be simple services like visa, passports, etc.
