part of me has always wantd to be a historian. I'm fascinatd by the stories behind the stories. & there always seems so much to learn & try to understand.
there was a great deal of joy in the revolution in Egypt. I watchd its coverage for days & often wept.
but now we learn at least 2 disturbing back stories. in the unfortunate attack on the Egyptian Museum perhaps as many as a dozen items were stolen inc a piece from the Tut collection.
& during the celebration on the square following Mubarak's resignation there was at least one brutal attack. reporter Lara Logan was beaten & sexually assualtd.
these 2 incidents are disgusting footnotes which must always be part of this story.
