Egypt Turned Off Their Internet.

[SaltwaterServr]

I've just read it in a couple of places. It seems that you cannot get a connection into, nor out of, the entire nation of Egypt.

I guess, in Egypt, the Revolution will not be televised (on the internet).

Given the timing, I expect there are some moves being made as we read this. I would expect the hammer to come down.

Well they did say they were going to forcefully suppress the protests.
Wouldn't those public beatings broadcast around the world...

Egypt is going through a crisis and this is NOT GOOD for the US. Losing another ally in the Middle East also means less oil and resources

True even though they were as two-faced as anything at least they gave us something as much as the terrorist support given.

This is bad for America, oil prices are going to sore up.

This is bad but for other reasons and not for that. In the long run it won't matter about their oil. Look up Israel's finds of oil and energy reserves off their coasts in the past year and you'll see where we already have our companies at work on them.

What's going to be the problem is the economic hardship and the ease with which stirring up this kind of dissent will be caused by it. They read the papers, they know what Israel discovered and the Muslim Brotherhood is using it to move forward and attempt to overthrow the Western friendly government of Egypt.
