Egyptians shout anti-terrorism slogans and wave national flags as they hold a poster of Egypt's Defense Minister, Gen. Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi in Tahrir Square, the epicenter of the 2011 uprising, in Cairo, Egypt, Saturday, Jan. 25, 2014. Demonstrators began gathering Saturday in Egypt’s Tahrir Square to mark the third anniversary of the start of its 2011 revolution, though streets remained empty elsewhere in a city on edge following a spate of bombings claimed by militants. The interim government has blamed the Muslim Brotherhood group for the violence and designated it as a terrorist organization while the group denied any links to terrorism. Arabic reads, "Egypt over all," and "Yes to the political road map, no to terrorism, no to sabotage." (AP Photo/Amr Nabil)
