It began as just another peaceful invasion of Tahrir Square, now ritual on Friday, to remind the General that they must not betray the Revolution. It was transformed in the early hours of Saturday in a violent clash: military police armed with tasers and batons, their faces covered by masks, stormed the 2,000 demonstrators remained after midnight to ask, especially, the removal of Prime Minister Ahmed Shafiq, "residue of the old regime." The officers of the armed forces then fired into the air and someone among the protesters fell to the ground, witnesses said, while others among the mackerel ways brutal military tents erected again in Liberation Square, as in the days of the uprising when the 'huge open space had become a village inhabited well at night.
Injuries and arrests, including that of a leader of the movement of 25 January, the "network" that coordinates the many souls of the Revolution and deals with the Council of the Armed Forces that Egypt holds 11 February with a promise to step down made the transition part, formed a civilian and democratic government.
Later on his Facebook page recently opened, the army has apologized. "The Council did not and never will give orders to attack the youth of the revolution, were unintentional clashes, we guarantee that it will not happen again." The incident, itself a small thing compared to 18 days of fighting and hundreds of dead or what is happening now in Libya, it is important.
Since the fall of Mubarak's army, which before had declined to suppress the protests, has done everything to deserve the confidence of the square and opposition. He immediately moved to amend the constitution by a committee of civilian experts and various political positions, largely rebuilt in the government (while leaving Shafiq), treated with all political forces, promised that in six months you are going to vote for Saddam and the parliament.
Has exploded to ban strikes anywhere after the end of dictatorship and still largely present, and reiterated that it is time to stop protesting. But he had never, until a few hours ago, used force. Now, despite the apology, the voices that criticize the fact that you have entrusted to the army so much power even though "temporary" (the strongest was that of Mohammed El Baradei Nobel) have increased.
"I thought things would change, I wanted to trust - told the daily Al Masry Al Youm one of the demonstrators, Ashraf Omar - but with this scheme there is no hope."
