So Shines A Good Deed of the Day: Ian’s, a popular pizza joint on State Street in Madison, has been inundated with calls from folks around the world looking to order pizza for the protesters camped out near the State Capitol.
From Politico:
On Saturday alone, Ian’s gave away 1,057 free slices in their store and delivered more than 300 pizzas to the Capitol itself.
By 2 p.m. local time Sunday, they’d given away 351 slices and sent countless other full pies to the rotunda, where protesters have been gathering since well before noon. As a few locals stood waiting for their slices, an Ian’s staffer went to the chalkboard hanging behind the register and wrote, “Turkey” in big block letters and co-workers expressed a sense of disbelief.
So far on the list of donating countries: Korea, Finland, Denmark, Australia, Canada, Germany, China, UK, Netherlands, Turkey, and Egypt.

Actually, you translated this incorrectly.
Thanks to Raisa, I’ve been informed that:
”..the protester went to the feet of the soldier and asked him to help protect them from Mubarak’s thugs and the soldier is crying because he said that he can’t because he was not given the orders to.”
