Journalist Robert Fisk on the Gap Between U.S. Rhetoric and Action in Egyptian Uprising. 2 of 2

The longtime Middle East correspondent of The Independent newspaper in London was interviewed by Democracy Now! from Cairo to talk about the popular uprising ongoing across Egypt, its regional implications, and how President Obama should respond.

"The protesters are asking for nothing less than Americans expect in their own lives," Fisk says.
