«Mohamed Fadel Fahmy, a producer working for CNN, rushed to help escort Amer through the angry crowd. But suddenly the two reporters were pinned against the railing of an overpass by young men who were accusing Amer of being an Israeli spy.
Yelling "I'm Egyptian," Fahmy managed to pull Amer another 10 meters down the road, until the pressure from the mob overwhelmed the pair.
Amer screamed as she and Fahmy were knocked to the ground and the crowd started to trample them.
Other CNN journalists tried to reach in to help, but were pushed back by a wall of angry men.
Fahmy lay on top of Amer, shielding her with his body.
"I was thinking, how powerless I was because there was no police to save us," Fahmy said. "I was worried that they were going to rape her."
...
"I had to run because obviously they were targeting journalists," Aleiba said in a phone call with CNN. "They attacked two other TV crews."

Графично, весьма. Это про вчерашнюю вакханалию у израильского посольства в Каире - ограду разнесли, машины пожгли, персонал посольства каким-то образом был эвакуирован.

Интересно, что именно вгоняет арабскую публику в такой феноменально бешенный раж - неужели они так любят далеких палестинцев? Чо-то я в этом сомневаюсь. Похоже словосочетание "израильский шпион" обременено в Египте такими густыми смыслами, что граждане буквально теряют голову. Как именно это все связано с проблемами египетского общества?
