‘30 Minutes of Hell’: Details of Lara Logan’s Horrific Attack Emerge

The violent assault on CBS News’ foreign correspondent Lara Logan shocked the international community as ex-Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak bent to public pressure and relinquished his office. As protesters gathered in Cairo’s Tahrir Square erupted in celebration, Logan and her news crew were viciously attacked.
The 200-strong crowd shouted “Spy!“ and ”Israeli!” as they surrounded Logan and her colleagues.
Logan received the brunt of the unfettered aggression as she was pulled away from the rest of her team and security detail. According to the Times of London, a large group of men viciously tore at the 39-year-old’s clothes, punched her and beat her with flag poles for up to 30 minutes, leaving her body covered in red welts and bruises.
Additionally, some wounds — initially thought to be bite marks — later proved to be from “aggressive pinching,” the Times noted.
Attackers also injured members of Logan’s team, including one security guard who suffered a broken hand in the ordeal.

Posted on February 22, 2011 at 3:06amEgypt is not a country of savages – who are you talking about?. Most Egyptians are very well educated, Muslims AND Christians. So until it can be reported exactly what males attacked her, no one should assume that is was a bunch of “savages”. http://wp.me/pYLB7-Gt

According to walkwithme1966 we have no idea who they are. Of course
we have a little idea who they probably are, based on what they said,
and who they were angry at, and how they yelled Jew, Israel, Israeli spy,

NEW YORK (AP) — A journalist resigned from his New York University fellowship Wednesday, one day after he posted derogatory comments on Twitter about CBS reporter Lara Logan as the news of her assault in Egypt was breaking.
“Jesus Christ, at a moment when she is going to become a martyr and glorified we should at least remember her role as a major war monger,” Nir Rosen wrote on Twitter. He later added, “Look, she was probably groped like thousands of other women.”

Posted on February 22, 2011 at 12:52amJust remember this when BO is campaigning for the muslim brotherhood and giving speeches about how holy these people and their koran is and when they rise up here and he establishes sharia law here. Is this how the American women want to be treated? Do you want to live like that in this country? If not, then you’d better be ready to fight for the AMERICAN WAY because it is going to come to that, I promise you. obama is a self proclaimed muslim first who WILL not say the words “endowed by our CREATOR”….I remember him mocking the Bible as he asked what parts of the Bible should guide our politics…the book that says slavery is ok, and that you should stone your child if he strays from the faith…then says “folks ain’t been reading their Bibles”…but has no problem with what he constantly referred to as the “Holy Koran”…look at how muslims live under their koran and sharia law…maybe obama hasn’t been paying attention to his “holy koran” because he sees no problem with forcing American to live by it.

Posted on February 22, 2011 at 12:31amCBS Execs should be held accountable for sending this particular western woman into this volatile crowd. This is a woman who’d been a home-wrecker and mistress when a reporter in Iraq in 2008. The muslims there saw this and it gave her a reputation as an adultress who deserved to be stoned in their eyes. Then they send her to Cairo– FOOLISH, naive people.

WARNING: The below is graphic.
I just read the full account of what seems to have happened to CBS reporter Lara Logan:
Reportedly some of physical and sexual assault activity was caught on camera phones as well. One video purportedly involved some boy fondling the breasts of the reporter. However, another purported video that was described by a controversial YouTube video claims that a bearded man ripped the top off the reporter and began slapping her face and breasts. He then pinned her to the ground, and by this time she stopped resisting, apparently accepting the fact that she was overpowered. The bearded man then removed her pants and masturbated in front of her before raping her. He also reportedly clawed at her breasts with his hands. The YouTube video claims that at least six men raped her vaginally, and a number of men also raped her anally as well. She was reportedly masturbated on and urinated on by some men as well according to the YouTube video claims which was supposed to be pieced together from information and videos posted on Arab Websites and other sources.
It was claimed by various reports that the sexual assault and beatings might have lasted anywhere from 20-30 minutes on the short side, and as long as about 3 hours on the other hand. It was also claimed that her left breast might have been bitten or might even had the left nipple bitten off as well. One report claims that somewhere from 6 to about 50 men might have sexually assaulted or beat the attractive reporter.

Posted on February 22, 2011 at 3:00amQuestion – how do we know who the persons were (what religion) her assailants were that night on the square. Egypt is not totally Islamic – there are many Christians and those Christians were taking part in the demonstrations and the celebrations also. Just by looking at an Egyptian how can you tell the Muslims from the Christian? You can’t.. So basically all we know is she was assaulted by a group of Egyptians men – but we do not know their religion so we should not automatically be calling them Muslims!

You are “spot on” as always my friend! The report given at atlasshrugs.com by a “witness” was so horrific I felt dirty just reading it…I am certain that these monsters will want to “brag” about defiling the “infidel” so it will only be a matter of time before their videos will be “leaked”…
The media is completely complicit in creating the illusion that Egypt was a benign uprising of a people simply seeking a “democratic” government…even their own reporters were swept up in the deception…Obama called her after she arrived back in the States…can you imagine?

Or is the Middle East now set a blaze simply another one of his “means to an end?” You tell me!

Posted on February 22, 2011 at 7:03amThe first WAR America fought against RADICAL ISLAM was in 1805 the Barbary Coast Wars.
In March 1785, Thomas Jefferson and John Adams went to negotiate with Tripoli’s envoy in London, Ambassador Sidi Haji Abdrahaman (or Sidi Haji Abdul Rahman Adja). Upon inquiring “concerning the ground of the pretensions to make war upon nations who had done them no injury”, the ambassador replied:
It was written in their Qu’ran, that all nations which had not acknowledged the Prophet were sinners, whom it was the right and duty of the faithful to plunder and enslave; and that every Muslim who was slain in this warfare was sure to go to paradise. He said, also, that the man who was the first to board a vessel had one slave over and above his share, and that when they sprang to the deck of an enemy’s ship, every sailor held a dagger in each hand and a third in his mouth; which usually struck such terror into the foe that they cried out for quarter at once
