The smiling soldier.. One image shows the true heart of some —and maybe many more—of the soldiers who have been ordered to stop the demonstrators

An Egyptian army soldier smiles at protesters in Cairo January 28, 2011. President Hosni Mubarak sent troops and armoured cars into Egyptian cities on Friday in an attempt to quell street fighting and mass protests demanding an end to his 30-year rule. Mubarak, facing a challenge that could send shock waves through the Middle East, declared a night-time curfew. But thousands stayed out on the streets of Cairo, Alexandria and Suez, epicentre of protests in the last four days; some thronged around mounted armoured cars, cheering and waving flags.… REUTERS/Amr Abdallah Dalsh (EGYPT - Tags: CIVIL UNREST MILITARY POLITICS)
