Thank you for the pictures.
FYI, if you look at any of these pictures and you want to know who is for Morsi and who is against:
For Morsi: different colored flags, black, green, white, etc. Hardly, any Egyptian flags
Against Morsi: ONLY the Egyptian flag plus crossed pictures of Anne Patterson and 0b0z0
- 22 million are expected to come out tomorrow from Alexandria in the north to Aswan in the south.
- Yesterday in Port Said, a bomb was thrown from a roof into a demonstration of rebels. People saw a flash in the air then it landed on the pavement with a thud. An Egyptian correspondent leaned over to investigate. It exploded killing him and injuring a number of rebels.
- Today at 5:30 AM Port Said time, two SUVs full of beards went through a street firing automatic weapons in the air to intimidate people in their beds.
- On Egyptian “Own TV” channel, Sheikh Mazhar Shaheen was on the phone to the anchor and a Christian Copt from Port Said as a guest who reported the above Port Said. Shaheen lambasted Morsi and his disastrous stand on the already-started civil war, which Morsi could avert by resignation. He greeted the Coptic guest and called him “our honorable uncle (elder).”
- Demonstrators are at Morsi’s Ettihadeyya Palace in Heliopolis, a suburb of Cairo, even if he’s already in hiding in some other palace.
- some of the routes of the rebel marches are known. The most dangerous one is the one headed to the Rab’aa el Adawiya mosque where the main body of the Ikhwan is located, not far from the Ettihadeyya Palace. If there is no military and armor there, expect tremendous casualties. A real-time camera INSIDE showed an Ikhwan war room with posters of their “martyrs” and signs plastered on the walls. This is something against “their” religion but it’s the same case of black churches used for communist campaigns here. Any conservative church “suspected” of such, gets the IRS...same ol’ same, do as I say, not as I do!
Later....
Latest in Egypt:
- Morsi meets with Defence and Interior Ministers. DUH, to save his sorry ass! Fat chance! Military spokeseman denied that the Republican Guards (president’s guards) stopped the motorcades of defence and interior bosses on their way to Qubba Palace [10 miles from Ettihadeyya Palace (=WH) surrounded by rebbels]
- Armor deployed at approaches to Cairo airport.
- Freedom & Justice Party (Ikhwan) HQ in Bani Swaif, southern Egypt was burned down.
- Smuggled video shows the above party personnel somewhere handling weapons and cautioning each other to be careful with “loaded” weapons. The video was handed out to the police to arrest the people involved.
- One killed, 6 injured, 4 of them cops, in an attack on a police precinct by “unknowns.” (Ikhwan)
- Ikhwan shut down traffic in streets leading to where they are gathering in Cairo (see my #94) They are also threatening killing the rebbles tomorrow, which against the law anywhere. Eventually, all this will be punished by imprisonment.
- The military strengthening defenses around 43 prisons in Egypt. They are avoiding a repeat of what happened in Jan ‘11 when the Ikhwan were freed from jails, including most of the ruling elite now headed by the most infamous of them, Sadat’s murderers and YESSIREE, MORSI HIMSELF. Then, Morsi pardoned them!
The ex-con will be gone! Maybe, in this would be a good English bumper sticker for cars standing in lines, miles long for gas and diesel!
‘For’ Morsi:..... different colored flags, black, green, white, etc. Hardly, any Egyptian flags
‘Against’ Morsi:..... ONLY the Egyptian flag plus crossed pictures of Anne Patterson and 0b0z0
Hello, long day am getting here after midnight sorry to say. But life does get in the way...
Thanks for the info...I listened to Aljazzera Live for a few minutes....they actually give better reporting than any news in the US...though surely slanted to their own bias I suppose...but at least you can see some of what is going on there.
And of course Twitter does what twitter does.....I like it for the photos which were presented here earlier.
It's not going to be a good day for the people there...many will hurt and die no doubt....unfortunately this is really not so different than our own civil war so many years ago....though as I see it the Egyptians are fighting over if Sharia Law prevails via Muslim Brotherhood...or they have freedom...as much as a Muslim might have of that.
Unfortunately the Global Agenda people are sticking there noses in as well...they will not let this g until they have Egypt positioned as they want.....will be interesting to see how this ultimately pans out..but I really see no good for Egypt for some time regardless who comes out on top of this.
