there has been mention of jihad out here. there have been people who said they are willing to die here to defend this patch of territory. by the way, the image you're looking at is just next to the egyptian museum where the front line really has been over the course of the past 14 hours. you can see tanks there in front of that monument. those egyptian army tanks have been in the middle of that battle throughout the whole time and not doing anything. the soldiers were buttoned up inside. i saw them climb inside when the rocks started to fly back and forth. and they did not come out. they did not take any position aside from complete neutrality. and it was the demonstrators and the pro regime supporters who were using those vehicles as cover, as they hurled stones at each other and tried to beat each other to death.
