go on defend it. after all most of the dead are just Muslim Brotherhood members. Never mind that there are women and children among those brutally murdered. Never mind that the protests were peaceful. Hell, you have to slaughter those inhuman fundamentalists to build a democracy. And brutalize the press.

Egyptian social media users also reported that a local photographer was shot during the clashes, but that death could not be confirmed.
At least a dozen other journalists were detained, injured or threatened Wednesday as the violence raged. The detained reporters included Reuters Tom Finn, who tweeted his arrest and eventual release, and Newsweeks Mike Giglio, who wrote an account of his detention for The Daily Beast on Wednesday morning. In it, Giglio said he and several other journalists, including the freelance photographers Mahmoud Abou Zeid and Louis Jammes, were beaten in police custody after identifying themselves as journalists.
