Tahrir has "opened" again .. officially ..
gar ( from Egyptian chronicles) - 08.04.2011 22:26

And the millions have returned back to the Tahrir square today. I have not gone there this time , instead I watch the whole event on TV. Already if I went there , I would go from early morning to find a place as technically there is no empty place there.

Tahrir is officially back
And the millions have returned back to the Tahrir square today. I have not gone there this time , instead I watch the whole event on TV. Already if I went there , I would go from early morning to find a place as technically there is no empty place there.

Today officially was the “ The purification and trial Friday” , we are insisting of purifying the country from the old Mubarak’s regime remnants and the trial is a clear demand to start the trial of former President Mubarak Hosni. We want Hosni Mubarak to get a fair trial in front of the whole world.

Millions want and many political forces like Muslim brotherhood came today to Tahrir after seeing the success the previous Friday. I must admit there was better organizing at least at the primary podium than previous times. The Friday prayer speech was said by Sheikh Safwat Hegazy who stressed on unity and fighting the remnants of regime than Sheikh Mohamed Gabreel led the prayer and at the end he prayed for our Arab brothers in Syria, Yemen , Libya and Palestine.

There were tons and tons of Arab flags in the square today especially the Palestinian flags.
Here are photos from Mohamed Abu El- Azm

Many public personalities spoke today at the main podium like : Dr. Mamdouh Hamza , Dr. Karima Hafanawy , Dr. Amar Ali Hassan , Dr. Abdel Kader Ouda , Dr. Abdel Halim Kandeel , Judge Zakaria Abdel Aziz and Sheikh Hafez Salama. Of course there were a lot of other reputable personalities.
There was a public trial for Mubarak with witnesses like the mothers of martyrs. I love that Mubarak photo in that cage.

"Reuters"
The day without doubt was successful especially it is the biggest million man protest after February 11,2011 according to estimations. Some people estimated that there were 2 million protesters in the rush hour at Tahrir. Of course this huge crowd made the army helicopter fly again to take photos from time to time. “I hear it currently from my house”
There were other protests across the country like in Alexandria ,Tanta , Suez and Ismailia. The protest in Alexandria was huge and reportedly included anti-Tantawy , anti-military chants.

Of course the moment we all have waiting for came at about 2.30 PM or 3 PM when suddenly we found a group of young men wearing army uniforms jumped in to the podium. Till the start of the million man protest many people included me wondered where these officers “The officers for revolution” FB and Youtube officers spoke about were but there they were on the podium.
