Yallah go Mubarak!

What is wrong with Mubarak? Clearly he is not wanted in power anymore! He doesn’t give any notice to the Egyptians who are fed up with his sate of ruling the country!

Who is he depending on? The little majority that supports him! Where are they? Why doesn’t he call out to them and tell them to join and support him in power?

Maybe he can’t do that because most of them are golfing or playing tennis at the country club a couple of km further where the demonstrations take place.

By means!! They are not watching the TV Mr. Mubarak, because some of them are too busy talking about throwing the ball to the hole.

Yesterday evening after the Egyptian state TV channel announced, that Mubarak was going to give a live speech to the nation, the anxious crowd waited in deliberate patient for hours. But the patience did not last long shortly after Mubarak announced that he was lending his authorities to the VP Omar Suleiman.

 But the only tiny winy thing that Mubarak doesn’t get is that Suleiman is not welcomed by the anti Mubarak protestors. Because everybody is clever enough to understand that Suleiman will be the pawn of this game. As the unfortunate speech continued on the satellite cameras turned to the angry crowd in the Tahrir square. The crowd was waving their shoes in their hands to Mubarak, which is signed as a curse in the Arab society.

How can Mubarak collate him self with the anti Mubarak protestors by saying that; ‘once, he was Young like them and he can understand their concerns?!? What concern? The concern that he couldn’t understand for over 30 years!! Come on! Where is his dignity? He comes out blaming the demonstrators like as if they were to blame of the economical situation of Egypt. He even also said that the Egyptian economy needs everybody to go back to their works.

By giving out this speech he has once again lost all his trust ability in his nation. The people out on the streets for 18 days are out for a revolution but he can only see them as anti Mubarak protestors.

What now?

Now the people out on the streets are all gathering round for a revolution. They are calling out to the millions who live in Egypt to join them.

In conclusion, the more Mubarak forces him self to stay in position the more the determination is going to stay foot in Tahrir square.
