FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Police fired tear gas on Tuesday to disperse the supporters of former president, Mohamed Morsi, who had gathered in Cairo’s Liberation Square to condemn the killing of protesters back in 2011.
More than 40 people were killed and over 3,000 wounded in clashes between the protesters and security forces that began on November 19, 2011.
The violence erupted when angered Egyptians protested against the ruling junta for failing to keep its pledge of establishing a civilian government nine months after Mubarak’s ouster.
