Egyptians break into Israel Embassy in Cairo - Yahoo! News
Yahoo News reports: "A group of about 30 protesters broke into the Israeli Embassy in Cairo Friday and dumped hundreds of documents out of the windows after a day of demonstrations outside the building in which crowds swinging sledge hammers and using their bare hands tore apart the embassy's security wall [...] Since the fall of Hosni Mubarak in February, calls have grown in Egypt for ending the historic 1979 peace treaty with Israel, a pact that has never had the support of ordinary Egyptians."

Israeli envoy leaves after Cairo embassy attack - Yahoo! News
Yahoo News reports: "Israel flew its ambassador home on Saturday after Egyptians stormed the building housing the Israeli mission in Cairo, plunging Egypt's ruling army deeper into its toughest diplomatic crisis since taking over from Hosni Mubarak."

Comment: It's really sad what's happened to Egypt. A pillar of regional stability has turned into a wild card and is coming close to becoming yet another failed state deranged by hatred of Israel. Whatever the "Arab Spring" represents, it's not progress.
