"Now, I'm basically stuck between what they've established as two cordons around Tahrir. One, is established by pro-Mubarak demonstrators, whose job it is to keep people out of the square. That includes ambulances and anyone whose not on their side. They ask you if you're pro- or against. They're looking for Americans and foreigners. They're saying things like, "You brought Baradei. This is your fault. You're trying to break Egypt." They're quite hostile. They physically hit me with sticks. I went in to film them throwing stones and they knocked me back pretty hard, which is not the mood of the demonstrators inside the square. The second cordon is also pro-Mubarak demonstrators, who are just beating up the demonstrators inside Tahrir. They have swords -- I'm not exaggerating -- they have things that look like machetes with a 12-inch blade or longer, sticks, pipes, automatic weapons. This is why people saying they're actually police. They're in very large numbers, not just people who collected. They're generally all men between the ages of 20 or 30."
