Egyptian army. Armies. Power given to them. People gave them that power. They act on behalf of the people. Never beyond that.

Egypt: Army crackdown in Cairo's Tahrir Square.

"The armed forces stress that they will not tolerate any acts of rioting or any act that harms the interest of the country and the people," it said."


.. who has the moral standing .. to utter such words .. the one that power was given to .. or the one that gave that power to ..

Field Marshal Tantawi .. Supreme Military Council .. Egyptian army .. was given the power .. the people of Egypt .. gave the power .. they are the ones .. that have the moral standing to utter such words .. and not the ones .. they gave them the power to ..

no general .. no army .. can tell .. the people .. anything .. they act on their behalf .. and upon that behalf .. they should act accordingly .. never beyond that ..


"The military issued a statement blaming "outlaws" for rioting and violating a curfew but said no-one was hurt."

.. "outlaws"? .. spare the people of Egypt .. the Gaddafi-style rhetoric .. has been pounding the ears of people .. on-and-on .. to hide behind it ulterior motives ..

Egypt. Military personnel asserting themselves.

"On Friday, some soldiers joined the protests in a direct challenge to Egypt's military rulers. For long intervals, they took to one of the stages erected in the crowded square and called for the country's military rulers to be replaced."

"Earlier this week, several military officers took to the internet, recording video statements accusing the chairman of the ruling council, Field Marshal Mohammed Tantawi, of protecting Mubarak from prosecution and of leading a counterrevolutionary movement."



.. now you are talking .. it is a disgrace .. a slap in the face of the human individual .. armies, police .. at the hands .. at the mercy .. of abusers of power .. given to them by people .. and what do they do .. they use them against the people ..

the most inane drawback ... humanity suffers from ..

military personnel aserting themselves .. identifying with their roots .. their personality traits prevailing in the execution of orders .. not a robotic 'arm' .. to do as their commanding officers dictate .. 'blind' instruments of war .. a trend that started .. in America itself .. if I am not mistaken ..
