General Hassan el-Roweini, head of the army’s Central Zone Command, showed up in Tahrir on 5 February, trying to convince the protesters of suspending the sit-in, following the “Battle of the Camel”, when Mubarak’s thugs descended on Tahrir to slaughter us under the watchful “neutral” eye of the army. In the video above, General el-Roweini describes the Tahrir occupation as a “soap opera” and denies knowledge of any protesters killed by the thugs.

The brave doctors in the makeshift clinic responded back to his allegations, and refused to go away. I don’t know who’s “Doctor Sherif” who appears in the video, but I salute his bravery.
