A video emerged this weekend that appears to align with numerous devastating reports from Egypt of unarmed pro-Morsi protesters being massacred by the Egyptian army.

This footage (warning, graphic) shows a young man square up -- unarmed -- to a tank be being shot numerous times. Protesters behind him scatter and take cover.
