American Killed In Egypt
Story: JERUSALEM -- The State Department has identified the American killed in Egypt during violent clashes between government supporters and opponents. State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf, traveling with U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry in the Middle East, says Andrew Pochter was killed Friday in Alexandria.

Kenyon College in Gambier, Ohio, says in a statement on its website that Pochter was a 21-year-old student from Chevy Chase, Md., working in Egypt as an intern for a non-profit education organization. The State Department says the young American was killed while photographing battles between supporters and foes of Islamist President Mohammed Morsi. Details were not available. : Opponents of Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi burn the content of a Freedom and Justice Party office in the coastal city of Alexandria on June 28, 2013. One person was killed and more than 70 injured in Egypt's second city of Alexandria on Friday as clashes raged between supporters and opponents of Islamist President Mohamed Morsi, state media reported.  · |

He knew what he was getting into. Nobody travels to the middle east without realizing the elevated risk of becoming a casualty- that area of the globe has been shit storm for centuries.  |

I was just going to say he was a nice looking guy. Too bad for him, he was still young. I truly do hate when people this young die.

Re: American Killed In Egypt
He intentionally, willingly and consciously stuck his face in a moo slum buzz saw. He was a typical arrogant 'enlightened' liberal who thought he was above things. Now he's below ground. Not uncommon. |
