Egypt's Scientific Institute is set on fire during protests

Dec 19, 2011, 10:02

Author, Andrew Collins posted this on Facebook late last night. Needless to say it generated many comments, a few from Egyptian people themselves urging the rest of the world to look below the surface. Apparently the ancient monuments themselves will be the next target as a means of getting world attention. The story itself seems to have disappeared from the media overnight.
