Army "ready to use force" to clear Cairo square

from Reuters report

I have been looking forward with great anticipation to see how the unfinished revolution in Egypt would take shape in view of the fact that the US trained and equipped Egyptian military was still in charge. The events in this article have not been widely disseminated in US media which wants to focus on Libya and Syria--two "rogue" states that the Empire would like to crush. 
Egypt's ruling generals said on Saturday they were ready to use force to end protests in Tahrir Square after troops cracked down on demonstrators overnight and sparked violence that medical sources said killed two people.
