Journalists and workers at Rosa el-Youssef, one of the most notorious pro-regime dailies, evict their boss, Karam Gabr, from his office.
A revolt is taking place across all state-run media organizations, from the TV to the newspapers. Let’s purge our trade shabab. We need free press in our country, and those pro-regime editors need to go.
Some DC pundits have been repeatedly on satellite TV stations claiming the Egyptian revolution had nothing to do with Israel or the US. Some even go as far as claiming this was “purely an internal affair.”
Those self described “ME experts” tend to neither know a word of Arabic nor visited Tahrir Square during the mass protests. The roots of this Egyptian revolt date back to September 2000, when street activism was revived again following a decade of dirty wary between the regime and the Islamist militants. There is a chain reaction linking those protests which broke out in solidarity with the Palestinian intifada to the current revolt.
Anyways, I’ll let the pictures speak for themselves.
Manshiyet el-Bakri Hospital workers are on strike over work conditions and managerial corruption. The strikers also want to establish a labor union to defend their rights. Elsewhere, emergency medical rescue workers are also staging protests.
