No Internet In Egypt

[LaL 418]

It's sad that this has to escalate into such violence and destruction.

But not surprising, right? It's not like Mubarak was just going to give up without a fight. I believe it's a good thing, he should be gone. Sad people had to lose their lives.

I am so worried now, I haven't talked to Ahmed since yesterday afternoon. Can't reach him now but he should be in a training class at work, so not unusual..but these messages here and the news has me concerned for all those I love there. He has been without internet for a few days now because he used up his credit, was supposed to get restored today but maybe not?? I hope all this unrest won't have any negative affect on those of us still awaiting our petition and visa approvals for loved ones there. I am supposed to travel there in a month, my family and friends are worried now...hope it settles by then. Thoughts and prayers are with all of our loved ones as well as those we don't know. Please let's all keep one another posted as to what is happening and efforts on contacting our loved ones.

No, not surprising. Egypt is a powerful country in the Mid East. Change is not going to come easy at all. It's still sad that it had to come to this.

But not surprising, right? It's not like Mubarak was just going to give up without a fight. I believe it's a good thing, he should be gone. Sad people had to lose their lives.

Last I heard Noor DSL is still functioning so if you can reach someone there tell them to get that service.

We got through to my inlaws a few moments ago, but they aren't saying much about what's going on and I've been glued to aljazeera all day!

I have been in contact with my husband through out the day via cell phone. Just pray that this settles down soon. And it will not do any good bash the president, all sites are monitored for this.

Hey Mohamed, I'm having a day of feeling very nervous, watching CNN all day. I just got through to Hany on his cell phone, he said in Ismailia things were pretty scary . the police is all over, fires and cars broken. Hany is at home and safe with his family. I hope the egyptian people get what they want and life will get better there soon for them. They're a wonderful group of people. I feel sad about the whole situation in Egypt.....You Take care, Talk To You Soon

Medo just left last week to go home for a family viset. Talk about bad timing, I also have been talking to him off and on all day. This is a good live site for watching the news. Much better then CNN..... http://english.aljazeera.net/watch_now/

I heard that they stoped all flights out and in at the airport. Hubby wants to come home earlie. I miss him

[Aly174 9]

still can't get through to anyone, all numbers I have give recording of not in service...hoping this will not affect his military release which is just weeks away...this may be a long month, wish I could go sooner...just wish I knew whether or not he made it home today

[tru_loves_journey 117]

Aly174 - I hope you hear from him soon and he is safe....As for me the last call I made was 5pm our time and checked to see if Hany was fine, He said he was fine. All calls after that have only been a buzz sound. I will keep trying as I'm sure we all will be doing. It'll be a sleepless night for me........Best Wishes To Everyone

Peaceful demonstration for Egypt at the Egyptian Consulate in Houston (Capital One Tower 5718 Westheimer Rd.) from 2:30 to 3:30 p.m. Sunday

OMGosh! I wish I knew that sooner ! I was in Houston by the Indian Consulate bcz my sister was getting a visa and her and her husband are going to India for his brothers wedding. We were at Phoenicia eating lunch at that time and I would have loved to be at the Egyptian Consulate instead of Phoenicia!
