CAIRO (AP) - Egyptian doctors say three people have been killed in a police and army assault to evict protesters at Cairo's central Tahrir Square.

The assault came on the second of two days of clashes between Egyptian security and protesters calling on the ruling military to quickly announce a date for the transfer of power to a civilian administration.

Mahmoud Said, a doctor at the nearby Munira hospital, said the bodies of two men were brought to the hospital on Sunday evening, while Mohammed Qenawy, a doctor at one of two field hospitals in the square, said a male protester in his early 20s also was killed.

The military took over when longtime authoritarian leader Hosni Mubarak was ousted by a popular uprising in February.

I'm guessing the protesters pooped on a tank or something. They are more civilized than New York City and don't tolerate that sort of behavior in Cairo.

That is the real problem. There simply aren't enough jobs for them to work at in pursuit of the elusive "American Dream".

Here is the real problem from my perspective. Egypt had been stable for years to decades before the uprising earlier this year. It used to be a politically moderate Islamic state. Both, other middle east Islamic countries and the Palestinians relied on Egypt to openly and privately broker communications and negotiations, in spite of Egypt's poor, uneducated and far more radical, anti-Israel populous.

Within the last few days, Israel had begun resuming more normal relations with the new Egyptian government/military. Things were looked like they were moving towards Egyptian international stability. The military had promised elections, but more the people become angry by delay, the greater chance Islamic clergy will gain greater support and power. Then, the situation could turn terribly bad should the military resist the dictates of Islamic clergy. And, Egyptians will revolt again...

Of course it is, even though it doesn't have any oil to sell. And, we and our allies can always count them too. That's why recently selling them all those tanks and plains made so much political common sense, right? The value of "iron thumb" political control in the middle east is underrated.

You're either with the US military-industrial complex or you're with the terrorists.

Outsourcing makes for better bottom lines. We know it hurts our country, but that has less societal value than profit.
