1. It is an absolute tragedy -all those deaths.
miri ,   israel   (08.16.13)
I hope that the Egyptian people will overcome the devastation to their country and their countrymen. As I understand, there are Copts, Christians and Muslims. May you learn to live in harmony with one another.
2. For me its erev Shabbos...for them its another day of mayhem
Al   (08.16.13)
Oh well....wake me up when its time to go go.
3. Morsi is sending his supporters to their deaths
Noami ,   Tel Aviv   (08.16.13)
How very noble he is (not). People across Egypt must open their eyes and start thinking for (and protecting) themselves.
4. MO
mofta   (08.16.13)
look at zohar and haniyeh of hamas, offshoot of the brotherhood, look at erdogan of the turkish brotherhood and so on so forth. They lie their teeth off but they believe their own lies. So they use CNN after they provoke the violence by burning chrisitians and their own mosques, killing police cadets in their stations and it goes on. AThen off course, anderson cooper bleeds for them. What is lost in the reporting is that 70% of egyptians marched to boot morsi out of office as he had ruined the economy, and was insitituting a sharia exclusive khomeinin style dictatorship. This is exactly what happened in iran 34 years ago and jimmy carter did the same thing as obama does now, not see through the religious dictatorship's motives. So sissi has the full support of saudi and others. meanwhile cnn continues to cry. Open fire. Besides since the brotherhood loves death, then give it to them. Reza seah is playing right into their hands.
5. Egypt is getting paid back
David ,   On this planet   (08.16.13)
for what they did to the Jews in the fifties. They love death more than life. They ruined their country and destroyed their future, this is what they do best. 80 million souls full of hate and misery this is your future, what a waste
6. Army vs Islamist-JIhadist Fanatics
Brod ,   USA   (08.16.13)
The Army is right in defending Egypt from the domination and tyranny of Muslim Brotherhood-Islamist-Jihadist fanatics, terrorists and zombies. The world should commend the Army for what they have done to maintain Law and Order that the Islamist-Jihadist Fanatics were trying to destroy.
7. Hope the people will go home
Ted   (08.16.13)
and get their lives back to normal. They are destroying Egypt.
8. remember...
Gad ,   planet earth   (08.16.13)
all that when you critisize Israel for everything going on on this side of the world.
9. The King of saudi arabia
aiman ,   Jersey   (08.16.13)
Has more wisdom in his pinky toe than the whole Obama adminstration. I was never a big fan but today I look at this guy in a whole new light. Israelis shouldnt forget that this guy wants Iran done as much as you. Respect for this wise man
10. eygpt
spookey ,   birmingham uk   (08.17.13)

11. TO NR. 5.
SJOERD VAN DER VELDE ,   OUR BIG PLANET EARTH   (08.17.13)
YOUR TALKBACK HAS BEEN WRITTEN DOWN IN A CORRECT WAY. THAT KIND OF ''ISLAM'' CAN BE CONSIDERED AS AN OBSESSION/IDEOLOGY OF DEATH AND CRIME, SINCE THE 7TH. CENTURY, FROM MECCA/MAKKAH AND MEDINA ON/FROM A CERTAIN PENINSULA. HEALTH, SECURITY, PROGRESS AND PEACE TO THE ISRAELI/JEWISH PEOPLE, TO US AND TO THE REST OF THE PRESENT MANKIND, EVERYWHERE, IN, FROM 2013. SALUTE, SJOERD RUURD.
12.  Islam andf peace? Yes
ky   (08.17.13)
But sadly only inside the mosque. Once the brothers reach the exit all hell breaks lose.
13. MB want to destryoy Egypt...
Harry Wright ,   UK   (08.16.13)
... if they can't get their hands on it. They don't care about the people but only for their support to advance their agenda. That's why the people are brain-washed wholesale in the mosks. They got a breath of fresh air and are fighting hard not to be sent back in the sewers where they belong. Obama wants them back in power. Under the MB, Egypt will be doomed forever. Better a slim chance of something better with Sisi than no chance at all.
14. # 5 David you are so stupid!
Stan ,   Israel   (08.16.13)
Israel trained a group of young Egyptian Jews so that they would carry out terror attacks against American and European targets, which would be blamed on Egypt. They failed, were caught, and tried. Two were hanged and the rest sent to prison. After many years they were released and came to Israel. See "lavon Affair" 1954
15. it's a good thing
tiger ,   Vienna, Austria   (08.17.13)
that egypt still has a strong secular army, so there's still hope for the future unfortunately eu and usa don't support the secular people in egypt strongly enough
16. World Must Unite To Rescue Egyptians from M.B Extremists
Moderate2013   (08.17.13)
Just express your sympathy to the ordinary Egyptians. Liberate Egypt and the world from the Extremism of the Muslim Brotherhood.
17. The Egyptian Tragedy
Stan ,   Israel   (08.17.13)
.Two years ago the people of Egypt elected Morsi as president hoping that he would fulfil their dream of more democracy, less corruption, and an improvement in the economic situation. The economic situation has worsened due to the fact that tourism, the basis of Egypt's economy has almost ceased to exist since the revolution began. In addition, the Muslim brotherhood under Morsi began turning Egypt into an Islamic State which is something which most Egyptians strongly reject. Morsi was democratically elected and his overthow following massive demonstrations has not been well received by the Western nations who want Morsi returned to power, a situation which is unacceptable. The people of Egypt made a big mistake two years ago in believing that the Brotherhood would give them good government without forcing them to live as deeply religious Muslims. This mistake it seems, is going tear apart Egyptian society, a sitution that may take years to mend. Some would say that Obama's demand for the return of Morsi was to be expected, but how is it that the Republicans support this demand as do the Germans French and British?.
