Thousands Demonstrate Against Israel and U.S. in Egypt
<http://www.newsdirectory.com/go/?f=&r=as&u=www.tehrantimes.com>

CAIRO (AFP) - Nearly 3,000 Egyptians protested against the recent Israeli raid on Syria and the U.S. occupation in Iraq, gathering after Friday prayers at the Al-Azhar mosque, a police source said.

Worshippers gathered within the walls of the mosque in central Cairo, chanting slogans vilifying Israel and the United States, the source said.

The demonstrators denounced the "barbaric" Israeli raid launched Sunday on Syrian territory, the Egyptian press agency MENA reported.

1. Egypt must do more to crack down on anti-Israel/anti-US sentiment

They have been warned, they have been given extra funds to help with additional police and military costs incurred.

If Hosni Mubarak cannot control his people, the Israeli Defense Force can and will.

2. Are you serious?
You think Israel would attack Egypt, I thought they had an uneasy truce?

3. I don't know where the regime will deploy its Israeli troop resources

Syria is looking likely, but then so is Iran. If it appears that Mr Mubarak is unable to do the job he is paid to do, clearly someone will have to step in and do it, and Israel has proven that they are skilled at liquidating civilian populations.

8. That is the policy of the bush regime

Unless the rest of the world gets off its butt and forms a coalition of the willing to oust the regime and liberate the US so that free and open elections can be held, that will continue to be the policy.

9. I have never accused the bush regime of wanting peace

I see no indication of it, and I acknowledge that peace would not generate increased revenues for defense and energy companies.

Maybe we'll be cage-neighbors down at the 'Mo!

7. He doesn't.
I believe Ductape is using irony to make a point. Either that, or he has gone over to the dark side.

24. I'm still in pre-detention phase. They just can't seem to find me

I guess finding things isn't their strong point.

11. That is the way that the US does go. What I think is irrelevant

Not to mention a violation of the Patriot act.

14. Could you post some links to my posts in the IP dungeon?

Just the ones on which you are basing that assumption.

In fact, could you go down there and post something about what a zealous Zionist you think I am?

That would be so kewl.

22. Hope you peed in yourself from laughing so hard
:) That was just the laugh I needed after a hard, discouraging week.

But this topic is so despicably sordid. Any minute now, I just expect to hear that the entire Middle East is in flames. Won't be pretty for anyone and all over a few acres.

Edited on Fri Oct-10-03 09:57 PM by Tinoire
He's one of the strongest advocates for justice we have.

On edit: Hi Hussar :hi: Long time no see!

DTF and you are pretty much on the same side. Peace & justice :)

23. Aha! at last someone who makes sense
thanks, it's just that I like to see things in black and white, this trying to be cleve/arrogant crap pisses me off.

If you are against this zionist crap just say so, that's so simple.

On a lighter note, how are you?, I am at college, mental health and human services no less

27. Go ahead, give yourself permission to be clever and arrogant

It's fun, nutritious and your hair will be shinier and more manageable, too!

19. Why do they have to?
Isn't that supression of free speech? Let's not discuss the fact ath we have brought a great deal of this anti-american sentiment down on ourselves. Isreal sure as helll has asked for much of it.
