This is a very interesting video from Suez, shot by journalist and friend Soheir Abaza. Some guy, she identified as a salafi, was giving a rhetorical empty speech, then tried to stir the public into chanting: “We neither want a communist nor Jewish state, We want an Islamic state.” But as you can see from the video, very few people repeated the chants after him, and then he was hushed by the youth.

The local press and tweeps have been also reporting that the Muslim Brothers tried to convince the protesting families of martyrs to suspend their sit-in, only to be rebuked.
