How do brave Egyptian soldiers treat female protesters?
2011-12-19
After being viciously beaten by the ten-strong mob, the woman lies helplessly on the ground as her shirt is ripped from her body and a man kicks her with full force in her exposed chest.
Some graphic stuff at the link. About what you'd expect from such a society so backward that it stripped all the casings off the pyramids to build Cairo rather than just go get their own. Time to start publishing the names and addresses of soldiers and their families.

#13  The Mameluke were the military body guard of the Caliph much like the Janissary were for the Turks. Both the Mameluke and Janissary were institutions that anointed the successors to the head of state and disposed of them as well. It appears old patterns of human behavior are running true to form.

#12  Egyptians appear to ungovernable. Maybe time to bring back the Mamluks.

#11  Looks more like a kaftan or abaya, actually. Too much cloth for a 'shirt'.

#10  Good Muslims" is an oxymoron, unless they're dead or killing each other

There a good people who are Muslims, Sonny Crack7741. Some of them are fighting on our side, some are advising us, and some are quietly turning in the worst among them.

g(r)omgoru that is a mess. I hope not. You are closer to this than most. I believed the youth to be more western and a younger population. It will be difficult to bridal harness them. If not large numbers will be dead like Algeria.

#7  Not Lebanon (sectarian/tribal warfare) Algeria.

#6  The one stomping her abdomen or chest is a female officer. Look at the hand and pants. Many deaths to come. This country is going to be another Lebanon.
Many young people out of work will either leave or fight somebody. I would suspect the wealthy are gone or will be.

Kelly, think that over. I will assume you didn't have your morning coffee.

#4  Soldiers behaving badly I have no doubt but...

I think the odds are greater than even that she would vote in the Muslim Brotherhood, cheerfully done a burka and enter the harem never to be seen again except by her owner.

Beats working for a living.

#3  So how do they differ from OWS protesters?
I'm sure I'll get a slew of esoteric responses.

#2  How else should good Muslims deal with shameless harlots?

#1  They need some high powered rifles to take these thugs out.
