Egypt shuts down Internet before massive riots

Tunisian riots/protests, and THAT was triggered by an unemployed Tunisian man lighting himself on fire because he wasn't allowed to sell vegetables in the streets of one of the poorest city's of Tunisia. this set off larger protests against the government, which led eventually to nationwide riots and the "president" leaving the country for France, before being turned away in the air and heading for Saudi Arabia. apparently some of his relatives had already arrived in Paris however, and were holed up in Eurodisney (first lulz) second lulz is that hours before he left the country, his wife attempted to withdraw 30 million dollars in gold bars from the national bank. third and final lulz is that when the palace he and his family lived in was breached, looters found QUITE the extensive porn collection.

Fuck yeah Tunisia

Fuck yeah Egypt

Fuck yeah civil rights
 
This is definetly not good at all, this may get real bad fast.

And Elgato- vibes and good luck to your sister/family. She'll be in my prayers when I go to bed!
 
not sure if the suez canal is shut down yet, guessing it is, but the s&p500 drop 1.5 points friday because of it
 
The Obama administration's support for the unrest is strikingly reminiscent of Jimmy Carter's support of the Islamic Revolution in Iran in 1979, which marked the birth of modern Islamist expansion now seemingly sweeping the Mideast.
 
Highly doubt a tank has fired, the Egyptian army is completely neutral or even a bit more skewed against Mubarak. I'm sure she'll be fine.
 
I am stoked, the world is slowly turning, first Tunisia, now Egypt. I am excited to see what the new world will look like! now lets just hope that the US doesn't black bag half the planet.

Dont get all pissed off, but there have been 0 reports from anyone of tanks firing. Maybe it could have been a tear gas canister.
 
Holy shit.

That's ridiculous, these pictures are awesome.

Am I the only one who always wanted to be a part of an epic riot?
 
Holy shit... Some diplo car just rams through 20 people in Cairo.

(Mind you, who knows what they were gonna do with the people inside, but still...)
