BBC's Jeremy Bowen Hit in Egypt by Shotgun Pellets

Well, we know that the BBC prides itself as the must trusted source of news worldwide and to be able to justify that claim, its reporters have to go out of their way to report the news. Demonstrating this aptly is the BBC's Middle East editor, Jeremy Bowen who is covering the current imbroglio going on in Egypt.

However, part of the call to today as a journalist is facing danger. Jeremy Bowen got hit in the head with shotgun pellets whilst doing his job today in Egypt. Below is his picture at the scene and his tweet telling everyone he is fine.

The brits want democracy in the Arab world yet the queen occupies an undemocratic post in the kingdom.They claimed Egypt is ruled by terrorists simply because Morsi didn't dance to their tune just like Ghadaffi and Saddam but they see nothing wrong with the absolute monarchy in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar,Abu Dhabi,kuwait and Jordan who are their allies.Here they are blaming Egypt,Iran and Turkey that to an extent still practice democracy for mixing religion with politics.

The real loser here is the Arab cuz they are being tempted by the west to kick out their leaders who do not guarantee freedom for them;forgetting that democracy encompasses all forms of freedom that will bounce back to attack their religious ethics.I wonder what the same opposition that ousted Morsi out of power will do if a section of Egyptian muslims start canvassing for gay rights in the nearest future.

Africans have passed the stage of military regime imposed on them by the west and nothing came out of it as the dictators only serve as stooge to the western powers.The west will only use you to get what they want and dump you !

^Egypt looks like a bad movie at the moment, it is on the brink of civil war in my opinion.

I dont think the aproko journalist will need a prophet to tell him to keep off from danger zone!!
Safety comes first!! Before any other thing!

I am not sure, it depends- I once completed a mountain race on just water. I was putting my life on the line thereby but I wanted to prove to myself that I could do it and I did. It could be something like that for him

ouch that's gonna hurt. we sometimes forget easily the risk journalists take in bringing us news.
