MIDDLE EAST: Egypt Security Forces Clash with Protesters
Eight hundred and seventy people were hurt in confrontations between Egyptian security forces and civilians when a planned memorial for those killed in Egypt's revolution turned into ademonstration against the interim military government (CNN). The uprisings stymie the country's newly reformed civilian police force and threaten to delay the country's transition to democratic rule (WSJ).
Most serious observers of post-Mubarak politics believe the political situation in Egypt will remain unsettled for some time, writes CFR's Steven Cook. "There is just too much at stake and too many groups with equities in the future of Egypt for it to be any other way," he says.
