1. It's good, gives them something
arne ,   chicago usa   (06.28.13)
to do. With time on their hands and not much work (if any), the next best thing is to hit the streets, throw some stones, burn some flags and hate some Jews. What better way to spend a day. When they go "home" they'll be hungry and tired eat a little and go to bed. Tomorrow"s another day and they can start their "crap" once more.Unbelivable!
2. obama's ignorant mid east policies
(06.29.13)
fitting an ignorant, way over his head, idiotic president.
3. Egypt
Mike ,   Edmonton,AB   (06.29.13)
Please turn Egypt into a second Syria, and good luck to both sides.
4. hows that Democracy working ?
alsky ,   Toronto   (06.29.13)
eventually, Muslims will understand that Democracy also includes Rule of law, and respect for others. or maybe they wont !
5. Egypt in turmoil...and blames ISRAEL!
David ,   Hartford USA   (06.29.13)
The Egyptians, excuse me for saying it, are just about the dumbest folks on the planet. They elect a MB goon and expect freedom and democracy. And when he behaves just like a MB goon, the people can't understand why! And who do the clever Egyptians blame for the mess they got themselves in? Israel! Let me say it one more time: the Egyptians are the dumbest people on the planet. As dumb as they are, it is the deceit of Morsi that is leading the country into ruin. He should resign. A 5th grader could rule better than he is. let's see: the people are stupid and the government is run by liars. A match made by Allah, no doubt! And Obama just sold these morons new fighter jets. I guess stupidity exists all over the planet. Maybe Obama wants to see if Morsi will turn into Assad.... Does the State Dept make bets on which leader can kill more of their citizens???
6. first comes spring than the arab summer
david ,   galil israel   (06.29.13)
i just dont care anymore!!!
7. Morsi
Leon ,   usa   (06.29.13)
Israel has nothing to do with Morsi and his handling of the economy. So the Israeli flag is burned...keeps some of the people employed making flags. Matches, bombs and riots...such a civilized country!
8. Or as we call it
steve from raleigh   (06.29.13)
Friday.
9. religion and politics
ky   (06.29.13)
when will we realize that religious political parties are the antithesis of democracy. All nations are made up of varied races and beliefs so in a democracy the election to power of of a party representing one particular belief instantly destroys its democratic nature. Political parties representing religions should be banned People should be free to follow the faith of their choice but not to thrust it down others throats. The Arab world is heading for further turmoil.
10. Egypt Protests
Steve B ,   Ohio, USA   (06.29.13)
If Morsi leaves, who will rule Egypt? Netanyahu?
11. Well...will Obama send them advanced
Steven Wilson ,   Anchorage, Alaska   (06.29.13)
munitions to kill each other off? It's always a real treat to watch a president disarm his own citizens... while he starts mayhem in the Middle East...and sends weapons to the people to kill each other off . Israel is now going to have a civil war to the north east...and a civil war to the south west.
12. Isn't it amayzing?
Ze'ev ,   USA   (06.29.13)
The only way they know to express anger is via Israel. They are angry at Morsi (Islamist from the Muslim Brotherhood) how do they show such anger? By burning an Israeli flag of course. The decades of brainwashing still hold true.
13. Qucik, US send them more money!!!!
frank ,   rehovot   (06.29.13)
they need money to buy more weapons to fend off democracy. Can't have too many muslim countries!
14. #12 Zeév: Quite right!
Dee Bee ,   Israel   (06.29.13)
Of ciurse we all know that in the Arab and Muslim World, ably assisted by others, everything is Israel's or the Jews' fault. As for the American killed, well, when are the do-gooders and the busy bodies of the "civilized"world going to get it into their thick skulls that you don't interfere in the busniess of other countries? Sad, but just don't learn from their mistakes.
15. Syria - now Egypt - the slaughter goes on.
Barbara ,   Haifa Israel   (06.29.13)
And why Israeli flag? Morsi is not one of ours.
16. Perfect opportunity
Dror ,   Haifa, Israel   (06.29.13)
Dump the Africans over the border. Give them back to Egypt from where they came. DO IT NOW!
17. # 9 Israel
Sagi   (06.29.13)
is on the same road, in fact she has covered a great deal of mileage since 1948. Religion is not only the antithesis of democracy, in the case of Israel it will be the cause of the total breakdown of society. The path is already paved and the process well under way.
18. Flag burning
Get Real ,   UK   (06.29.13)
This time not the US flag. So the funding will continue
19. come on egypt, you can do better!
dan ,   DC   (06.29.13)
just 8 killed? thats a slow day on a streetcorner in aleppo. those syrians are making you look bad! show the world what you really made -- fanaticism, ignorance and total disregard for human life. (me too? well, yeah, why should i care if you don't?) where can i mail the bullets?
