Egyptian residents form groups to guard against looting 30/01 18:56 CET http://www.euronews.net/2011/01/30/egyptian-residents-form-groups-to-guard-against-looting/ With the disappearance of police on the streets, many Egyptians have had to fend for themselves amid reports of looting. Residents have formed their own neighbourhood watch groups, to ensure that thieves and vandals do not take advantage of the unrest. One man said: “We’re the ones protecting the country. The people we caught were a police officer and a soldier stealing from a jewellery shop. You can ask the military. Today at least five policemen were caught looting.” Even the army sent out a message to the public to organise their own local protection groups. A petrol station manager said: “The country is very close to collapse. There is no food and no drink. What shall we do now? People will starve if the riots and looting continue.” A woman shopper said: “We haven’t felt safe for days. Where’s our security? Where’s our country’s government? It’s expected to protect the people. Where is it? The army can’t do everything. Plotters and looters are all around and you can work out what they’re up to. We haven’t slept for days.” Police say they have arrested some 500 people across Cairo on charges of looting, arson and vandalism. more - http://www.euronews.net/news/africa/ |

ElBaradei joins mass rally in Cairo’s Tahrir Square 30/01 19:54 CET http://www.euronews.net/2011/01/30/elbaradei-joins-demonstrations/ Mohamed ElBaradei, the Egyptian opposition figure and Nobel Peace prize winner, has joined the demonstrators in Tahrir Square. He has already made his position clear to journalists: “Mubarak has to go immediately. First step he has to go, second step we have to have a government of National Salvation in coordination with the Army. So the people and the army will get together, go for a transitional period where then we prepare for a free and fair election, a new Constitution and then move on to a democracy.” Earlier in the day ElBaradei told reporters that he had a popular mandate from the people to form an interim government. Abdel-Jalil Charnouby from the Muslim Brotherhood told euronews: “If there is a national agreement on this idea then obviously the Muslim Brotherhood will agree with it. We need to realise what is needed, so a government headed up by a well-known personality who has the support of the armed forces would be accepted by the Muslim Brotherhood.” Meanwhile, embattled president Hosni Mubarak has been meeting military leaders and rallying the troops. He has also announced that the police and the security forces would return to the streets on Monday. It was reported that they will be undertaking traffic duties and criminal investigations but will not be confronting the demonstrators. |

Egyptian military says protests are legitimate February 1, 2011 - 6:39AM ![]() The Egyptian people's demands are "legitimate", its all-powerful military says, vowing not to crush mass anti-government protests called for Tuesday. "To the great people of Egypt, your armed forces, acknowledging the legitimate rights of the people ... have not used and will not use force against the Egyptian people," it said in a statement on Monday. A military spokesman, quoted by Egyptian state television and the official MENA news agency, added that peaceful freedom of expression was guaranteed for all.

Planes are taking out the American's and Canadian's,,, mobile phones are down,,, internet is down,,, could it be... the start of WWIII (IV) "The Third World War must be fomented by taking advantage of the differences caused by the "agentur" of the "Illuminati" between the political Zionists and the leaders of Islamic World. The war must be conducted in such a way that Islam (the Moslem Arabic World) and political Zionism (the State of Israel) mutually destroy each other. Meanwhile the other nations, once more divided on this issue will be constrained to fight to the point of complete physical, moral, spiritual and economical exhaustion…We shall unleash the Nihilists and the atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will from that moment be without compass or direction, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view. This manifestation will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time." Since the terrorist attacks of Sept 11, 2001, world events, and in particular in the Middle East, show a growing unrest and instability between Modern Zionism and the Arabic World. This is completely in line with the call for a Third World War to be fought between the two, and their allies on both sides. This Third World War is still to come, and recent events show us that it is not far off. http://www.threeworldwars.com/albert-pike2.htm ![]() According to Whitney Smith's Flags Through the Ages and Across the World [smi75c], the symbol placed in the middle of the Egyptian flag is the so-called eagle of Saladin, based on the eagle carved on a wall in Cairo. Saladin (Salah al-Din Yusuf) (1138-1193) was the first Ayubid Sultan. He ruled over Egypt, Hejaz, Syria and Mesopotamia. He captured Jerusalem to the Latins in 1187 and signed with them a peace treaty in 1192. The use of the Saladin eagle on Arab flags is modern, however. Some flags seen in Cairo has the emblem as gold, white, gold; or red, white, black; or light gold hatching, white, dark gold hatching; or white, white, white with two gold vertical lines to divide the three parts. Graham Bartram, 29 June 2000 The inscription on the ribbon is Jumhuriyat Misr al-Arabiya (Arab Republic of Egypt). Even thou both the inscription of the former coat of arms Al-Jumhuriya (Al-Arabiya Al-Misriya) and Jumhuriyat Misr Al-Arabiya are translated to the same "Arab Republic of Egypt", there is a big internal political difference between the two. In the first (old) way - the Republic is first Arabic and then Egyptian, in the newer version it is first Egyptian and then Arabic. Dov Gutterman, 18 October 1999 ![]() ![]() Flag and coat of arms adopted 4 October 1984 Description: Horizontally divided red-white-black flag with the emblem showing the so-called eagle of Saladin in the middle of the white stripe. The emblem in the middle of the white stripe is sometimes pictured with different colours. Some flags seen in Cairo has the emblem as gold, white, gold; or red, white, black; or light gold hatching, white, dark gold hatching; or white, white, white with two gold vertical lines to divide the three parts. The artistic licence regarding the representation of this arms is very high. Use: on land, civil and State flag, at sea, civil ensign. |

Thank you for signing the statement! Your name has been added. The more people join this campaign, the more powerful our call will be. Help spread the word -- forward this link to friends and family, and join other Avaaz members in donating your status on Facebook: "I stand with the Egyptian people. http://j.mp/standwithegypt -- Join me by making this your status message today!" Thanks so much, The Avaaz Team ----- Dear friends, Millions of brave Egyptians are right now facing a fateful choice. Thousands have been jailed, injured or killed in the last few days. But if they press on in peaceful protest, they could end decades of tyranny. The protesters have appealed for international solidarity, but the dictatorship knows the power of unity at a time like this – they’ve desperately tried to cut Egyptians off from the world and each other by completely shutting down the internet and mobile networks. Satellite and radio networks can still break through the regime blackout -- let’s flood those airwaves with a massive cry of solidarity showing Egyptians that we stand with them, and that we’ll hold our governments accountable to stand with them too. The situation is at a tipping point -- every hour counts -- click below to sign the solidarity message, and forward this email: https://secure.avaaz.org/en/democracy_for_egypt/97.php?cl_tta_sign=1be0eed72edabd985191da68d0967335 People power is sweeping the Middle East. In days, peaceful protesters brought down Tunisia’s 30-year dictatorship. Now the protests are spreading to Egypt, Yemen, Jordan and beyond. This could be the Arab world's Berlin Wall moment. If tyranny falls in Egypt, a tidal wave of democracy could sweep the entire region. Egyptian dictator Hosni Mubarak has tried to crush the rallies. But with incredible bravery and determination, the protesters keep coming. There are moments when history is written not by the powerful, but by people. This is one of them. The actions of ordinary Egyptians in the coming hours will have a massive effect on their country, the region, and our world. Let’s cheer them on with our own pledge to stand with them in their struggle: https://secure.avaaz.org/en/democracy_for_egypt/97.php?cl_tta_sign=1be0eed72edabd985191da68d0967335 Mubarak’s family has left the country, but last night he ordered the military into the streets. He’s ominously promised 0 tolerance for what he calls ‘chaos’. Either way, history will be made in the next few days. Let’s make this the moment that shows every dictator on our planet that they cannot stand long against the courage of people united.

Interesting that Bin Laden ,Alzawhari and alquaida in general have said NOTHING in support of the people of Tunisia and Egypt. Judge them not by what they say but by what they don't say |
