Egypt: Concerned about violence, U.S. calls for "restraint of all sides". |

What fucking bullshit. Pro-democracy protesters have suffered 33 dead and 1500 injured at the hands of the military using, in some cases, weapons supplied by the U.S.. So, what the U.S. is calling for is for pro-democracy activists to go home so the military will stop its murderous rampage. http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5i2oVrePhgKDO4Tc8i9uj3NfKKmIA?docId=CNG.b408cc279c76a4f7d78f0c9c7b246cc7.111Edited to add link.

1. The US should be calling for "restraint" in our own country |
|
Considering what happened at UC Davis, we don't have much moral authority to be preaching to ANYONE about how to handle protests. I hope someone gets the police under control here before someone gets killed. They've already come close a few times.

asteris Asteris Masouras Or maybe White House stmt meant: "revolutionaries, plz don't get killed by our pet military junta during our pre-election season" #Tahrir
asteris Asteris Masouras US init response to #SCAF crackdown on #Tahrir late, rote & shameful; not even a hint of a threat to cut off mil aid to help curb atrocities
