Of course, the primarily responsibility for the blood in Tahrir Square is that of cynical Obama who decided to heed Israel's advice regarding what is happening in Egypt. The imperial power that is the US requires the existence of one region--the Middle East--ruled largely like colonial settlements of the 19th century. Obama has given license to Mubarak and the Egyptian Army is executing the plan. The dumbest view by the Egyptian protesters is to regard the Army as their protectors or even as being neutral. The Army was a tool for Mubarak and will remain his tool to the last day, unless ordered otherwise by the US. This is not the same Army that overthrew Faruq--and many in that Army were with Faruq which explained the secrecy that Nasser required for his plan prior to the revolution.
