Anti-government protests in Egypt moved into their third day early Thursday, with unconfirmed reports of police "massacres" of civilians in the port city of Suez.
In Cairo, protesters "played cat and mouse with police" into the early hours of Thursday, Reuters reported. Opposition groups reported on their websites that electronic communications had been cut off in the city center, and parts of the city were experiencing blackouts.

Just heard on the news that this is a '...real security threat to the United States...'! Uh oh! If this continues to spiral out of control look for a national state of emergency to be imposed in the US, and soon! Internet access may likely be cut off and cell phone service as well. Police vehicle in Cairo on fire on msnbc right now! Light armored military vehicle now being shown in street! This is a surreal scene! What has happened in the last couple of weeks, the rapidity of the events, is NOT a coincedence! What really blows me away is how the news channels are blatantly still keep trying to 'spin' all this, carefully editing scenes, showing police vans on fire, and not showing what the Egyptian police/military authorities are REALLY doing to people over there, and that they are still cutting away to 'commercials'! ENOUGH ALREADY! To hell with the commercials, please! And now, on CNBC oil and gold prices are 'rebounding', as if this is a good thing for those who trade in these things! Are you starting to understand how twisted and sick this system is? All they care about is making MONEY!
President order now a curfew in Cairo, Alexandria and Suez from 6pm to 7am local time.
