New Egypt Protest Video - The Most Terrible Thing I Have Viewed In My Life, Litterally

Honestly, this video needs a warning because it is messed up beyond belief, but I feel this needs to be seen.

A video like this has never made me cry before this. Watch and you will see I am not exaggerating.

Ok, I warned you, very graphic.

how sad..
I think that woman in the beginning of the video dies

The horror. These people go home to their families after they do this.

I don't understand how people can do this to one another.

Those zombies with the night sticks should never have been given that power in the first place.

I don't know what to say.

Whats worse is I didn't have an emotional response to this.

Who are the guys with the "bats" and helmets?

Why did they all out beat the crap out of the people they caught?

I don't want to sound like an arse, but remember they wanted change, and well, they got it. However, there is no reason for the use of violence especially towards the half way point where the police started firing weapons upon the civilians.

I'm speechless! So sad for the human race, we are worse than the animals that we consider lesser beings than ourselves.

I look out upon the nations of man and see within them much hatred and chaos. I look into the soul of man and see damnation and sorrow. I look into a mirror and see none other but myself.

I'm not sorry to have watched that. It was difficult to see, but it was a necessary thing to see. I mourn for the world, and I mourn for the direction that things travel in. I'm sorry to have done little to help change it. I can only hope that something somewhere decides to have pity on us, for it seems that we won't be saving ourselves.

It still bothers me and this may sound really weird but it makes me happy to know that this may be the worst thing someone has seen. I have seen far worse online, but I hope sensitive members never do.

They were fleeing, unarmed and fleeing, two friends trying to save their fallen comrade by dragging her while risking there own lives. Looks their bravery and selflessness cost them their lives.

Tragic is all i have too say.

If this happened to me or a fellow country man I myself would be getting organized to start attacking them I just could not stand there and do nothing which in term would more than likely put my own life in serious danger.

wow, If this is actually the police force doing this to the rioters, I don't know what to say...but I hope those protesters take up arms, and protect their ideas and themselves.

How long before these people exchange their sticks and stones for AK47,s , rocket launchers and tanks. A bit primitive to be beating each other with sticks. Call in the arms dealers!

The word "travesty" comes to mind, not just for the fallen, but because it has happened.

I don't find this graphic at all. But it is messed up that this is occuring.

I have seen worse gore, sure, committed by a few people. But seeing hundreds of these people working in pure evil against citizens of their own country, and seeing those people who could have ran away instead drag their friend to try to save her get beating while the women is stomped on like she isn't real, it struck a cord.

It is the military police. They are part of the military(obviously) that put a right-hand of Mubarak(the ousted puppet) in power after the people of Egypt revolted against Mubarak.

Certain members of ATS did warn about this happening after Mubarak was gone.

I think it would be time to fight fire with fire and start putting in a order to protect myself www.alibaba.com...

Not a single mention on CNN.com homepage about Egypt.

No one cares I guess.

I'm getting tired of seeing the abuse the military and the police put these days. It's all over the world not just in Egypt. What the hell the whole world turned over night to military tyranies and we missed the moment? How can a person wearing a uniform of a state hit and KILL the civilians of that state? Is that SOLDIER worthy of wearing the flag of that state? Does the military and police worldwide just hire thugs? I'm getting sick of soldiers, i'm getting sick of all of them.

I'm sory if there is any soldiers on ATS but I do have one question: Are you still in the military/police? if yes, do you remember what you have sworn when you joined? If yes, than no matter what country you come from just think about this, you are betraying your country and your people. If that oath you have made means anything to you, you would understand. period. I'm getting sick of seeing people in uniform honestly.

And remember this everybody, if we still live in democracies, the ones that have the power are we "We, the people.." you will find this phrase in any constitution. I would be happy if tomorrow all military on the planet just freakin dissapears. Go away and wage war amongs yourselvs where the civilians can't see you untill every one of you is gone. I think we can all agree to give u a pretty big dessert where all of you can fit, make it your country wo don't really care, take all your weapons, sticks, helmets, shields and wage your pathetic wars untill all of you are gone.

* He also denies use of live fire, though six are dead from such ammunition

Cairo (CNN) -- The new wave of bloody clashes between pro-democracy protesters and Egypt's security forces has left at least 10 people dead, including six by live ammunition -- even though the new prime minister denied that live fire was being used by his forces.

Meanwhile, 213-year-old Egyptian maps and historical manuscripts -- described as "irreplaceable" -- were destroyed after a library in Cairo was set ablaze during the clashes, officials said.

Among those killed in the escalating violence in central Cairo were two children, ages 12 and 14, and two others died from skull fractures caused by cement blocks, officials said. Also, 432 people have been injured since the latest unrest broke out Friday, said a spokesman for the Health Ministry, Dr. Hisham Sheeha.

Sheeha said six of the deaths were by live fire.
