7 People Die and Hundreds Are Injured in Cairo Clashes

CAIRO - At least seven people were killed and over 200 injured overnight in clashes between Islamists and the Egyptian police, health officials said on Tuesday. After days without further violence clashes highlighted the growing disenchantment between supporters of former Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi, who was ousted by the military for almost two weeks.

Cairo clashes famous sights wrapped with tear gas and smoke from burning tires, including Ramses Railway Station and a square in the center near the University of Cairo. The fighting seemed to be an escalation of the Islamists, who had largely their protest to a central warehouse limited since 8 June, when soldiers and police opened fire on pro-Morsi meeting, killing more than 50 people.

On Monday evening, leaving thousands of Islamist camp, blocking a bridge, which is a main artery for traffic in the city. You get the police threw stones and agents, supported by civil protection helmets, responded with tear gas and rubber bullets. Clashes were also reported in other cities.

Police arrested more than 400 people in violence on Monday night, state media reported. It was a stark contrast to his failure on almost every for dozens of nights of street fighting in the two and a half years since the fall of former President Hosni Mubarak to stop, and underlined the renewed commitment to the security forces in a new battle against the Islamists, his old enemy.

The violence came hours after the United States gave the clearest statement yet of the Obama administration in the military overthrow of Mr. Morsi. A senior U.S. diplomat warned on Monday that the generals threaten "second chance" to a democratic transition in Egypt, when the new transitional government continues to crack down on Islamist supporters of Mr Morsi.

"If the representatives of some of the biggest parties are detained in Egypt or excluded, such as dialogue and participation are possible?" The diplomat, Assistant Secretary of State William J. Burns, told reporters after the meeting with generals and officials who have been appointed Interim.

"It is difficult to see how Egypt is able to get out of this crisis unless their residents come together to find a non-violent and inclusive way," Burns said.

Mr. Burns, the first senior U.S. official to Cairo to visit since it opened, said in a context of violence, which reflects an almost complete collapse of the political life in Egypt. Since the generals arrested Mr. Morsi, its soldiers and security forces have three Islamic satellite network closed and arrested dozens of Islamist leaders.

And the Islamists, whose candidates won three-quarters of the seats in the last parliamentary elections, almost all the military occupation as an illegitimate coup overthrew the democratic government denounced. They have refused to negotiate with the officers appointed or. Their plans for a new political process

Mr. Burns asked both sides to take measures to reconcile. "The government itself has said it wants to include all political," he said. "We have asked the military to avoid political arrests. And we asked those who disagree with the government to fulfill its obligation to participate absolute peace."

No repeated U.S. calls for the generals to Mr. Morsi release. Mr. Burns never mentioned the ousted president nor the Islamist movement behind him, the Muslim Brotherhood. When a reporter asked how the new Egyptian government to release Mr Morsi responds to calls from America, Mr. Burns said only: "We have our views clear on this issue."

Apparently, all parties had Mr. Burns. The young organizers of the petition campaign that preceded the expulsion of the Mursi, the ultraconservative Islamist party Al Nour and the Muslim Brotherhood officials, all said they would not meet with Mr. Burns. And the state media reported anonymous military say that Mr Burns more than their Egyptian colleagues determined to ensure the continuity of U.S. military aid was to be ensured.

Supporters of Mr. Morsi accuse Washington of giving his blessing to the takeover of the military, while their opponents say the Obama supported Islamic government mistakenly Mr Morsi. Banners in Tahrir Square - the focal point of protest often - representing the U.S. ambassador to Egypt, Anne W. Patterson, with an X on his face.

Burns said he has "no illusions" about the suspicion of many Egyptians in the United States. He stressed repeatedly that the United States does not hold back the persons or parties in Egypt, only the principles of pluralist democracy.

He said Washington hopes the new transition of Egypt would be "an opportunity to learn some lessons and to correct some of the errors of the past two years," and that the transition "road map" of the military-led government would speed up " the return of Egypt to a democratically elected civilian government as soon as possible. "

Currently, the plan for a panel of 10 lawyers selected calls to a radical constitutional reform in less than a month and will present a gathering of 50 people, appointed by different groups to the package two months after this review. The package would then almost immediately to a referendum. Legal experts say the process leaves little room for public debate or input.

Mr. Burns, but struck an optimistic note: "My feeling is that the people think that the most important is that the process is transparent and inclusive."
