Egypt: Pro Government Forces Attack the Crowds
Wed evening (morning in the US) in Tahir Square, Cairo. Scenes of molotov cocktails being tossed into the crowds and into buildings; men on camel and horseback rampaging through the crowds. Nick Kristof of the NY Times reports machetes and razors. Anderson Cooper of CNN pummeled in the head.
Things are looking very ugly. Serious head wounds reported.
Multiple molotov cocktails being hurled off roof-tops; so sign of military intervention.
