Today thousands of people gather together for the march of millions. Soldiers surrounded the peaceful protesters like they were about to go to war. With helicopters and army tanks ready to fire and strike fear into the hearts of thousands to suppress an uprising. Why are the people machining? They are marching for freedom from oppression.
It’s a peaceful protest, well so far peaceful protest to get the resignation of President Hosni Mubarak. The government is taking no risk. They are cutting internet service at 4 p.m., and all phone services will be cut also. Banks and school were closed due to this and a curfew was set for 3pm.but, protesters obviously disregarded this rule. The military said that they would open fire on the peaceful protesters.
What is the big deal about Hosni Mubarak? Why do they want him out of office? They want to end their strict and harsh rule of this government. The anger is driven mostly by economic tension. Egypt has seen a dramatic rise in the cost of living in recent years. While the government has offered food subsidies to help people handle rising prices, many are still struggling. In Egypt’s new growing economy it is creating bigger differences between rich and poor.
That’s exactly what people should do. That’s a part of how we changed history, by protesting. But it seemed like protesting only made Hosni Mubarak’s will to stay stronger. He said he will stay in office until a September election. His announcement on state television late Thursday angered protesters who had hoped to hear the president announce his resignation. He should just do them all favor and leave office. There is nothing he can do or say now that is going to change people’s minds about him. The emergency law should have been lifted a long time ago. Changing it now is not going to make much of a difference. The best thing to is step down. Of course he will not and even say that he will not leave Egyptian soil until he is buried underneath it.
