As far as I've understood, it's the NDP(ruling party) headquarters next door that's on fire, not the museum itself.
Fires have the annoying tendency not to stick to plot boundaries though...

The museum appears to be fine from live shots - the army and the protestors appear to be collaborating to prevent it from spreading.

The NDP's headquarters is almost finished burning out on its own, and military firefighters are on hand to protect the treasure.

Live shot currently shows museum not burning.

It's damn close though.

Interesting graphic from the Guardian website:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
This'd be the affect of the government blackout of it.

Incidentally, there's meant to be an "important announcement" from them soon.  Although they said that half an hour ago...

Now if you want t say that Islam isn't discriminated against and well, slandered by an appealing portion of American (unaware of the support they may give or receive by both the moderate and hardcore Muslims), I'm afraid I disagree.

I'm not sure what you mean by "appealing portion", but yes, anti-Muslim ignorance/hatred is a significant problem in the US. I don't think anyone argued otherwise. You slipped up when you 1) Insinuated that all Americans are like that, and 2) Said that it's worse in the US than in Europe. I don't think any comparison like that is apt or appropriate.
Ho snap! I frigging said something that was not supposed to be extended to all Americans and you frigging know it.
This blank expression can say whatever he want, I didn't hide that I'm a strong supporter of Stallman, an American. I cited Chomsky.
When you say French love bread you're not implying that every single French love bread.
When you say American tend to be anti muslims, you don't imply that every single one of them is a anti muslims.
My statement was stronger and thus crossed the line, and I apologized, now don't play dumb.

Yes, the hq of Mubarak is burning. I said it a few post before.

Nothing much.

Guarantees to follow the will of the people

Support the poor people (how the fuck is that related to this)

Asserting that reforms are working


...He's on a major tangent right now



EDIT: He's calling for the government to step down!?
