Egyptian Revolution Tweets. Day 15, No To The Entire Regime, Part 6

Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5

Some Mubarak Financial documents DDos'd to dissappear found here

To see Tahrir battlepoints Google Earth + overlay


Egyptian anti-government protesters sleep on the tires of a military tank stationed on Tahrir (Liberation) Square,
which for the past two weeks has been the center of a sit-in protest by thousands of Egyptians demanding the government step down from power.
Protesters created a human shield and barricades to fend off pro-Mubarak supporters from getting into the square
and to prevent the military from an overnight attack to clear the square from the protesters.



Please rec if you read these, these get mercilessly unrec'd

Suez Canal workers go on strike
Ahram Online, Tuesday 8 Feb 2011
Print Send

Suez Canal Company workers from the cities of Suez, Port Said, and Ismailia began an open-ended sit in today. Disruptions to shipping movements, as well as disasterous econmic losses, are expected if the strike continues. Over 6000 protesters have agreed that they will not go home today once their shift is over and will continue their in front of the company's headquarters until their demands are met. They are protesting against poor wages and deteriorating health and working conditions.
