Anti-Semitism among pro-Mubarak “supporters;” Punching CNN

As has been seen time and time again, the supposed allies of the US are often the most vitriolic in supporting those or deploying those using racism, fitna, sectarianism etc. when they need to deploy violence and fear.

Note that, according to the Guardian’s running account, the first reported bouts of anti-jewish language is being used – BY MUBARAK thugs….at least as far as I have seen yet:

“People continue to run away from the square. Many of them have got blood wounds. I could saw one man just brush past me carrying a child … there appeared to blood on his chest,” Jack said.

One pro-Mubarak supporter yelled “liars and Jews” at journalists.

Will this go unnoticed in the US press? Ironic, given Israel’s insistence on Mubarak sticking around….

And now – Anderson Cooper punched ten time by the pro-American Mubarak “supporters.”
