From far
away, I’m anxiously waiting for the 25 January. A demonstration from three
different meeting points will be held in Hurghada, in the rest of Egypt anyway.
Activists invoke for demonstrations. But will this be sufficient?
Wouldn’t it
be better they’d go out into the villages, into the poor districts and quarters
and finally tell the people there what it is all about? Wouldn’t it be better
to listen to those people out there and take their everyday problems seriously?
It’s still the Muslim Brothers and the Salafists that approach the people and “pester”
them. The activists, the seculars, yes, the complete opposition hides behind
Twitter, Facebook and TV instead of addressing the people in Cairo’s slums, in
the Delta’s shanty towns and in Upper Egypt.
The
opposition has a golden chance: the people are tired and fed up of the Muslim
Brotherhoods‘ lies and of the worsening living conditions. Yet, instead of uniting
and building up a heavy weight opposition to the Islamists ahead of the parliamentary
elections, they quarrel… Are they so egoistic? Or do they still not understand
where Egypt is standing? What a keen disappointment!
If there
won’t be any surprise by the workers, the poor or the Ahly Ultras, 25 January
2013 will just be a ceremony, nothing more.
Change has
to come from inside, not from Twitter, Internet or TV. When is the day?
