I was against Muslim Brotherhood from day one, but after seeing this, I'm against both sides. One for failing to take control of the country (Muslim Brotherhood), and the other for using that much force to do what MB couldn't do, be aware.. the video contains lots of blood and grave injuries.
another video, raw footage.

Basically whats going on now is that MB are in crowds of people shooting at the military, Military shoots back and civilians die. and then people blame the military.

To be completely honest, I kinda sorta really...don't care. I don't know why but I have no sympathy for either side. These are people that I don't know nor do I care about. I jut don't have any reason to care what happens to them.

Pretty much this. Makes me glad I live in America where our protests and revolution consists of making angry posts on social networking sites and setting up camps in major cities.

As long as political and religious ideologies and class-ism are allowed to remain forefront to basic human needs then these conflicts will always be around...As long as you have people willing to force their visions and perceptions on others tons will die.....A sad truth...
Seems like to me as people we are being tested to come the realization of what truly matters in life and lesson is a hard one to learn...Sometimes it's not until both sides are standing knee deep in blood and guts before they start to question their original motives and if it was really worth all this....

This shit can happen anywhere in the world so don't fool yourself. It just need the right type of catalysts (tailored to the region) to spark things off..
@inky: That's a very cold but honest statement... it honestly made me chuckle for a bit... but then reminded me of why conflicts of any sort truly happens...It starts with people not caring about each other or their concerns....

It's ok you're not obligated to feel bad for everyone who dies somewhere in the world, but it's world news, some people care to follow.
this video was released by the army, it was recorded at about the exact time the second video above was recorded, showing MB hiding in a building and shooting the police.

Can't say I care either, but I like to follow stuff as well. Maybe its ignorant, but after all the things i've seen about muslims and what they do, this seems like nothing.
Kinda felt bad for the babies tho, but I guess partly because the fact where they are how they will get raised as well.

I don't think you have to have some kind of emotional reaction to what's going on. Seems most people in this world have too many problems of their own to worry about. Why add more anguish on top of that if it doesn't directly effect us. However, it's always a good practice to take notice of such events, to expand your own understanding, and often humble yourself. Just as we study history, current events are just as beneficial to learn from, and comprehend the reason for such travesties.
If you're not really into knowing any of this kinda stuff, and more into partying, GTL or w/e, it's all good, different strokes, for different folks. But just saiyan it's helpful in certain terms.

You guys are right....you don't have to emphasize or even care about these people's plight....But I can't help but think that it is this type of callous mindset that leads to the civil conflict in the first place....

Crazy shit up world we live in: One side, life is normal as boring; the other, having a **** ing real war between protesters... I don't care what is going on, but what I care are the lives of these human beings being taken in such aggressive manner.
