Protest nation?
Protests in Egypt are being increasingly covered by the local and
international press.
Thomas Friedman celebrates
the little-reported protests by factory workers wanting to be
part of the QIZ deal with Israel as evidence
of a new Middle East rising... Meanwhile,
Jazeera's is the first English site to cover
the air traffic controllers sit
in at Cairo airport, which has been covered pretty
extensively by Wafd in Arabic as made
clear by zahma.com...
Papers like Wafd now regularly announce
protests beforehand, rather than just report on them.
Protests are also being directed at much more local
events -- like the demo against landowner and police
collusion reported by FT. There was also another demo
in Sinai against mass post-Taba bombings arrests. Earlier, women
took part in a similar protest in
Arish.
In fact, even as parliament formally passed the
new presidential elections constitutional amendment, protestors
gathered outside to complain
that it really only serves the regime.
In a commentary he later expanded
on in the Washington Post, Gulf News columnist Youssef Ibrahim
sees much hope
in kifaya movement style protest spreading across the Arab world.
