been since keeping them at bay so right now i don't think anything is going to finish anytime seen the protests organized today was by the mizzen brotherhood which is of course the organization that the president of egypt hails from they call for peace folk intro to pronounce protests after friday prize usually with the muslim brotherhood they do actually deliver they have these quite controlled protests some criticize them for being too controlled usually finish it to night full so i imagine what will happen here is as has happened before because the security barricades have been built many times before in downtown cairo once the barricade is erected i am mountain and the police who would draw this peaceful protest organized by the mission brotherhood will take place and korea. what may happen which has happened in the past is when the muslim brotherhood meet the scratch and when the protests finishes the peaceful protest there is today the struggle is that people have other grievances like i am saying against the police or the government may well stay we may say continued clashes with the security

u.s. embassies despicable violence became the price the leaders of those countries have paid for letting the mob vent out this initially but the u.s. appears to be in a difficult position now they can't really do less out of those leaders or the people there because washington cheered so greatly for the changes that swept the region of the current leave government essentially ols its powers in the united states also there are still questions as to whether it was just the angry mob which attacked the u.s. consulate in libya or whether an organized terrorist group jumped on the bandwagon of this film hysteria and perpetrated the vicious attack the chaos the influx of arms into libya during the war against gadhafi created perfect environment for extremists of all kinds so there's still a web of questions around what happened on nine eleven this year. so the notorious film is threatening not just u.s. diplomatic missions and our world but american interests in the region in general
