Suleiman urges protesters to go home
Source: Sky News

Updated: 17:32, Friday February 4, 2011

Egyptian Vice President Omar Suleiman has denied that pro-government elements killed protesters during violent unrest in Cairo.

When asked in an interview about shooting into the crowds of protesters that have gathered at Cairo's Tehrir Square, Suleiman replied, in English: 'No. Nobody being killed by rifles or by snipers. No way.'

In the interview by Christiane Amanpour from America's ABC network, she questioned again whether the newly appointed vice president was denying that pro-government forces killed protesters in the square. He said, 'They behaved very well.'

Suleiman also said that Egyptian forces would 'not use any violence against' the protesters. 'But we will ask them to go home. And we will ask their parents to ask them to come home.'

They really don't get this, do they? They think the kids are just acting up. And their thugs are "behaving well." Scary.

3. From the appearance of the protesters, I'd say that all a parent has to do
is tap their kid on the shoulder.

7. Yes, just propaganda words used to create mis-perception of reality and for
dividing and conquering purposes.
