Anger at the US in Egypt

""You see," the 50-year-old lawyer said, displaying the items. On the bottom of each were the words "Made in the USA."  "They are attacking us with American weapons," he yelled as men gathered around him.  In the streets of Cairo, many protesters are now openly denouncing the United States for supporting President Hosni Mubarak, saying the price has been their freedom. They say the Obama administration has offered only tepid criticism of a regime that has received billions of dollars in U.S. aid."
