13. He knows the politics very well, too...

He has said that what the pro-Mubarak types are doing is typical of that government. Richard Engel is probably one of the top 10 reporters there is, IMO.

17. Engel making me cry...

He doesn't know how you keep your principles of non violence when you are being attacked. Are they going to have to martyr themselves? Awful awful.
