The Palestinians who broke the barrier of fear against the Israeli occupation in the first and Second Intifadas haven’t yet broken it by revolting against our own Ramallah’s dictatorial and oppressive regime. But the Palestinians have heard the voice of the revolution coming from Egypt.
Our corrupt PLO factions, our mercenaries, our security forces trained by Americans and Israelis to oppress our own people and our so-called civil society stand in the camp of the enemy.
What’s the next step?
The next step is to break up the barrier of fear with all dictators and collaborators.
I send my message from the occupied Jerusalem in Palestine to those who do not understand, or they do not want to understand, that the thunderous Egyptian Revolution is heard by the millions of the Arabs living in Africa and Asia expanding from the Arab Gulf to the Atlantic Ocean.
I shout in my loudest voice: we’ve heard you, and soon you will hear from us.
There is no doubt that the Egyptian revolution will steadily and firmly move on every inch in the Arab world sweeping up all dictators and collaborators including our chief collaborator in Ramallah, simply because Egypt is the leader of the Arab nation in peace and war, in revolution and submission, in democracy and dictatorship.
This explains the attempts by the worried Americans and Israelis to save the dictatorial regime in Egypt; they want an Egyptian government to continue even without its dictator. They try to deceive the Egyptians and push them to accept cosmetic changes to the repulsive regime.
But their attempts wouldn’t succeed.
I’m not exaggerating, because the dictator and his gangsters stand alone facing the 84 million Egyptians, the American fleet which is now in front of Ismaililya would not scare them and wouldn’t be able to save the regime. It is impossible to defeat the millions who are now in the streets and the squares of Egypt.
Yes, Egypt, all Egypt, the face book’s youths, the old generation, the women, the Middle class, the intellectuals, the employees, the workers, the farmers, the unemployed, the residents in the cemeteries are in a dynamic revolutionary state against the regime, its dictator Muhammad Hosni Mubarak, its government, its security forces, its corporate business mafia, its political parties, its 20 TV and Radio stations, its mercenaries and thieves.
Yes, Egypt, the leader of the Arab world is dusting out the garbage of the tyranny on its face; Egypt is propelling the profound water stored in the aquifers of the seven thousand years old civilization.
I tell those politicians who still live in the past age before the January 25th revolution of anger, those leaders in America, Israel, and the West; I tell those Arab and non-Arab dictators that the mom ent of the truth has come.
I tell them that the Egyptians, after two weeks of continued protests by the millions have finished writing the first two chapters in their revolution, which is the first revolution in the 21ist century that the Tunisian has the honor of writing its prelude, last December.
“Bread, freedom and dignity” were the first three words written in the chapter which is tweeted up by Wael Gonim and other hundreds of twitters on January 25th, 2011, which marks the police day, calling on the masses to demonstrate in the Cairo’s streets. The few hundred protestors who rushed onto the streets clashing with the security forces have quickly grown up to 10,000, then 20,000, and 30,000.
On the next Friday, the Interior Minister who couldn’t act without the green light from the dictator ordered the Security Central Forces to open fire on the masses which demonstrated peacefully, killing and wounding hundreds of people marching and praying on Sitteh October Bridge.
That was the beginning of the comprehensive revolution; now the ground-breaking genie energized by the three decades of oppression and frustration and thuggish deeds practiced by the Mubarak regime is gaining the momentum, shaking up the Mubarak family dictatorship.
The Egyptians have shattered the barrier of fear in the week of anger and expanded their revolution horizontally and vertically in the week of departure.
We are waiting for the third chapter in the third week of martyrs.
