I think Mubarak has no intentions of leaving-ever. The stall tactics are obvious, while he appoints his right hand murderous military leader as liaison for peace. Shortly, he'll be forced to leave. I hope they quickly form an alternative government as anarchy and chaos often follows revolution.

I think it would be a slap in the face by the US to any new government if we grant his residency. He's stolen enough money to buy an island in the Bahamas.

Egyptian citizens---Good luck and stay alive!

Why shouldn't journalist be attacked. From NBC, I see no objective reporting, they stir up the protesters by having the title "Rage & Revolution". It's a damn shame they didn't see the people of Iraq worthy of support when Saddam Hussein was murdering them. They did nothing but slam the Bush administration for trying to get rid of a dictator 10 times as bad as Mubarak. Now suddenly they're out there trying to stir up a war. What gives? Suddenly in Egypt they have all this compassion for the populace. Where was is ten years ago. Traitors, that's how I see them.

These thugs are all operating under the orders of the CIA point man and Israeli Mossad confidant Omar (the destroyer) Suleiman. The Israeli-American hand-picked replacement for Hosni Mubarak whom Israel is counting on and helping to crush the Arabic uprising inside Egypt.

Suleiman ordered the assaults and beatings on the journalists to remove the film crews from covering his sending in waves of Egyptian shock troops under the guise of 'anti-riot' police. Scattered reports state that Israel has sent in UAV's to send in video updates to the Egyptian forces on the concentrations of the protesters.

Little wonder why the goose-stepping Zionists running Israels government like Suleiman their little Zionist boot licker so much, they are two birds of a feather.

With Israel's direct actions and help, this is likely going to turn very bloody on the Arabic people in Egypt whose only hope is to continue their protests until Mubarak and the Zionist boot licker Omar (the destroyer) Suleiman are exiled from Egypt permanently. Israel and America has surrounded Omar Suleiman with long time Military generals while performing the Washington Two-Step in telling the world the Egyptian people must decide who their next ruler will be. BS!

Forcing Omar Suleiman down the throats of the impoverished Egyptian people under the 'guise' of a transition of power is ILLEGAL and AGAINST the Egyptian Constitution. It is unconstitutional by Egyptian law to push the Vice President Omar Suleiman into power as Egypt's worst despotic ruler onto the backs of the Egyptian people.

But WHEN did Israel ever abide by Laws and Constitutions when it comes to the Arabic People, to Israel's serial criminals and thugs, such is simply business as usual. WAKE-UP America, the Arabic people are not fooled by such crass actions and America treating the Egyptian and Arabic people with such deception is far from 'winning the hearts and minds' of the people across the Middle East.

Mubarak intensifies press attacks with assaults, detentions

New York, February 3, 2011--Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak unleashed an unprecedented and systematic attack on international media today as his supporters assaulted reporters in the streets while security forces began obstructing and detaining journalists covering the unrest that threatens to topple his government.

"This is a dark day for Egypt and a dark day for journalism," said CPJ Executive Director Joel Simon. "The systematic and sustained attacks documented by CPJ leave no doubt that a government-orchestrated effort to target the media and suppress the news is well under way. With this turn of events, Egypt is seeking to create an information vacuum that puts it in the company of the world's worst oppressors, countries such as Burma, Iran and Cuba.

"We hold President Mubarak personally responsible for this unprecedented action," said Simon, "and call on the Egyptian government to reverse course immediately."

In the past 24 hours alone, CPJ has recorded 30 detentions, 26 assaults, and eight instances of equipment having been seized. In addition, plainclothes and uniformed agents reportedly entered at least two hotels used by international journalists to confiscate press equipment. On Wednesday, CPJ documented numerous earlier assaults, detentions, and confiscations. Mubarak forces have attacked the very breadth of global journalism: Their targets have included Egyptians and other Arab journalists, Russian and U.S. reporters, Europeans and South Americans.

"The attacks on journalists, which began last week, have now intensified to levels unseen in Egypt's modern history," said Mohamed Abdel Dayem, CPJ's Middle East and North Africa program coordinator. "We are concerned for the safety of our colleagues, and we're alarmed at the prospect of these witnesses being sidelined at this crucial moment in Egyptian history."

Government officials, pro-government journalists, and commentators loyal to Mubarak have for the past two days been engaged in a systematic campaign to present foreigners, and particularly foreign journalists, as spies. CPJ has documented at least seven instances on state-owned television or on private stations owned by businessmen loyal to Mubarak in which individuals described elaborate foreign plots to destabilize Egypt that centered on foreign provocateurs, including journalists. In several instances, they were described as "Israeli spies." In one instance, a woman whose face was obscured "confessed" to having been trained by "Americans and Israelis." She went on to say that the alleged training took place in Qatar, where Al-Jazeera is based.

Here is a round-up of attacks on the press:

• The Washington Post told CPJ that the paper's Cairo bureau chief, Leila Fadel, and Linda Davidson, a photographer, were among a number of journalists detained this morning. Their unidentified driver and translator were also picked up, and the driver was beaten. Fadel and Davidson were freed late today, but the status of the driver and translator was unclear.

• Corban Costa of Brazilian Radio Nacional and cameraman Gilvan Rocha of TV Brasil were detained, blindfolded, and had their passports and equipment seized, according to Brazilian news accounts. The two were reportedly held overnight without water in a windowless room in a Cairo police station. An officer forced the reporters to sign a statement in Arabic saying they would immediately leave Egypt for Brazil, reports said. "We had to trust what he said, and sign the document, " Corban said. They said they will be sent back to Brazil on Friday.

• Polish state television TVP said that five journalists working in two crews--Krzysztof Kołosionek and Piotr Bugalski; and Michał Jankowski, Piotr Górecki, and Paweł Rolak--were detained in Cairo and that one of their cameras was smashed. Krzysztof Kołosionek and Piotr Bugalski were released, according to Polish daily Gazeta Wyborcza.

Also on Thursday, Antena 3 reporter Carmen Avram and cameraman Cristian Tamas, were stopped by police. The men sent a text message late today saying they were being held for questioning.

• Mubarak supporters stormed Cairo's Hilton Hotel searching for journalists, Al-Jazeera reported today. Journalists inside the hotel posted a Tumblr entry that said: "About 20 foreign journalists are currently holed up." BBC Foreign Editor Jon Williams tweeted: "Egyptian security seize BBC equipment at Cairo Hilton in attempt to stop us broadcasting."

• Fox News reported that correspondent Greg Palkot and producer Olaf Wiig were hospitalized after being beaten by protesters in Cairo.

• The Swedish public broadcaster SVT reported that its correspondent in Egypt, Bert Sundström, is recovering from stab wounds to the stomach in a Cairo hospital. STV said it lost touch with Sundström as he was reporting in Tahrir Square and when they finally reached him on his cell phone, a man answered and told the station that he had been "taken by the military." STV's Ingrid Thörnqvist told the online Aftonbladet: "He is seriously injured, but the condition is stable."

• The Greek daily newspaper Kathimerini said its correspondent in Cairo, Petros Papaconstantino, was "briefly hospitalized with a stab wound to the leg" after an attack by Mubarak supporters in Tahrir Square, according to The Associated Press. The reporter wrote on Kathimerini's site: "I was spotted by Mubarak supporters. They ... beat me with batons on the head and stabbed me lightly in the leg. Some soldiers intervened, but Mubarak's supporters took everything I had on me in front of the soldiers." AP also reported that an unidentified Greek newspaper photographer was punched in the face.

I came upon a really ineresting blog giving an actual Egyptian's views on Pres. Obama speech, the US, the Muslim brotherhood and 9/11. It is verrry interesting and insightful. http://liberalwall.blogspot.com/ I ended up exploring the website for over an hour, it is so informative!!

It's a well used Israeli tactic, round up and savagely beat the Journalists, seize their cameras, harass the camera crews and when they are gone then the secret police come in large numbers and the real blood shed begins all off camera. Omar Suleiman is simply following those same well used Israeli tactics on his own people.

I laughed when I read the New York Zionist rag propaganda paper's journalists were briefly held, all they need have done was mentioned they were operating for Israel and their Egyptian police handlers would have immediately released them.

This beat down of the Journalists and Camera crews is no different than the same such actions inside Germany by the Brown shirt nationalist socialist movement pre-WW2 and has all the earmarks of Israel directly working with Suleiman to crush the Egyptian people.

Wow what would the world do without Jews and Israelis?

There would be no scapegoats, can't blame the Bhuddists for wars because they haven't started one in the hundreds of years that they have been in existence.

Can't blame the hindu's, they have had a nuke for a decade and McDonald's corporation HQ's hasn't been turned to dust, even though they have killed billions of Cows.

Obviously we can't blame the Muslims because there are squatters rules and they were in Israel for almost a thousand years before some Jew lover told them they couldn't stay in europe anymore after they caused WWII.

Christians can't be blamed because it was the Jews that killed Christ.

Pagans can't be blamed because there are only a few hundred thousand left in the world.

Hey I got a great Idea lets round up all the Jews and we will put them in an area with a lot of barbed wire and soap. Damn wait I think when I was a lad I learned that some guy with a bad toupee and crazy mustache tried that and it didn't do much good for his country in the long run...

I think it might be better if we take just the people that are intolerant of others and beat them within an inch of their life. Then they might learn to get along with others and we can finally start working on how to go and find some Aliens to blame humanities problems on. Too bad that is still at least a hundred years away. Maybe closer if A. Smith-1451820, Osama Bin Ladin and the KKK are locked up where they can't see the sun until they turn into dust.
