Breaking: Violence in Cairo

Thousands of Morsi supporters rallied in Cairo today. Far smaller than the anti-Morsi protests of earlier in the week, but a clear demonstration that he retains a popular constituency. 

The protests were harassed by the military, including live fire. This appears to have triggered a violent standoff between pro- and anti-Morsi civilians, who are now brawling on the 6th of October Bridge on the Nile

Not a good sign for things to come.
