Egypt is collapsing!

These are the Article 76 and 77 of Egypt's Constitution:


ARTICLE 76

The People's Assembly shall nominate the President of the Republic.

The nomination shall be referred to the people for a plebiscite.

The nomination to the post of President of the Republic shall be made in the People's Assembly upon the proposal of at least one third of its member.

The candidate who wins two-thirds of the votes of the Assembly members shall be referred to the people for a plebiscite.

If none of the candidates obtains the said majority the nomination process shall be repeated two days after the first vote.

The candidate winning the votes with an absolute majority of the Assembly members shall be referred to the citizens for a plebiscite.

The candidate shall be considered President of the Republic when he obtains an absolute majority of the votes cast in the plebiscite.

If the candidate does not obtain this majority, the Assembly shall nominate another candidate and the same procedure shall be followed.


ARTICLE 77

The term of the Presidency is six Gregorian years starting from the date of the announcement of the result of the plebiscite.

The President of the Republic may be re-elected for other successive terms.

This worries me greatly. While I sometimes consider the news media to be beneath dignity when reporting, they certainly do NOT deserve to be pummeled and injured.

My question though, which I have not been able to gather from ANY of the reporters is "WHO is attacking the reporters?"

Which SIDE is attacking them?

Vodafone Says Egypt Forced Carriers to Send Messages

By SHEREEN EL GAZZAR And ADRIAN KERR

Vodafone Group PLC Thursday said the Egyptian authorities used emergency powers to instruct mobile operators to send text messages to Egyptian mobile users, the latest example of how communications in the country are being affected by the unrest.
"Under the emergency powers provisions of the Telecoms Act, the Egyptian authorities can instruct the mobile networks of Mobinil, Etisalat and Vodafone to send messages to the people of Egypt," Vodafone said in a statement on its website.
Vodafone, Egypt's largest carrier by subscribers, said the authorities had done so since the start of the protests in the country and that the messages weren't scripted by any of the operators.
"Vodafone Group has protested to the authorities that the current situation regarding these messages is unacceptable," the statement said. "We have made clear that all messages should be transparent and clearly attributable to the originator."
Despite SMS services overall being down across the country, subscribers of Etisalat Egypt, a subsidiary of U.A.E.-based Emirates Telecommunications Corp., Wednesday received Arabic-language SMS messages that read: 'To every mother, father, brother and sister, to every honorable citizen, take care of this country for this nation lasts forever.'
Another SMS message sent Tuesday across the network of Egyptian Co. for Mobile Services, or Mobinil, said: "This is a message from the Egyptian Armed Forces: Egyptian youth beware of rumors and listen to the voice of reason. Egypt is above everyone so protect it."
It wasn't clear how the messages were sent nor from where they originated, after Mobinil earlier Thursday confirmed that SMS services in Egypt remained down, a day after the state restored Internet services that had previously been cut amid the widespread political unrest.
Etisalat Egypt and Mobinil weren't immediately available to comment on the SMS issue. France Telecom, a shareholder in Mobinil, which it jointly owns with Orascom Telecom, also wasn't immediately available to comment.
Vodafone declined to comment beyond the statement posted on its website.
Late last week, Egypt took the unprecedented step of severing the majority of Internet connections and shutting down its cellphone services, with the cooperation of international firms.
Mobile voice services, however, were restored Saturday.
"We would like to make it clear that the authorities in Egypt have the technical capability to close our network, and if they had done so it would have taken much longer to restore services to our customers," Vodafone said at the time.
"It has been clear to us that there were no legal or practical options open to Vodafone, or any of the mobile operators in Egypt, but to comply with the demands of the authorities," Vodafone also said at the time the voice services were restored, adding that its other priority is the safety of its employees and "any action we take in Egypt will be judged in light of their continuing wellbeing."

Huffington Post (sucks). Talk about trying to "equate" things. Assholes.

How Large Is Egypt's Religious "Right"?

An important next step in Egypt's transition -- whether it occurs this September, when Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak has announced he will not run for reelection, or sooner -- will almost necessarily involve free elections in which citizens are given the opportunity to choose among a full slate of candidates, representing a range of ideological backgrounds.

Under such conditions, how well can we expect candidates associated with Egypt's religious "right" to perform? Past experience suggests that under the most free of conditions during Mubarak's thirty years in power, candidates associated with the Muslim Brotherhood, for instance, enjoyed about a 20 percent share of the vote. Does the experience of the Brotherhood under Egypt's electoral authoritarian system provide us with a good estimate of how religiously oriented parties and candidates might do in future, more free elections? The answer is not at all clear.

We might want to think about this 20 percent as a reasonable lower bound for performance of Egypt's key Islamist organization, the Muslim Brotherhood. If under conditions of pretty serious repression (as was witnessed in the 2005 parliamentary elections), the Brotherhood could perform at this level, it seems quite reasonable that under more free conditions, the group -- or a similar one -- could garner even greater support.

But what of an upper bound on the vote share for the Egyptian religious right? In a 2008 research article, we examined the attitudes and political preferences of the Egyptian public, using public opinion data collected as part of the World Values Survey. Although Egyptians as a whole consider themselves to be highly religious, there remains a significant amount of variation in individuals' particular political and social beliefs.

Our study identified the absolute most religiously and politically conservative segment of the Egyptian public; a bloc characterized by deep personal piety, support for the confluence of politics and religion, and, quite frequently, a worldview that systematically favors men over women. Why does a preference for patriarchy matter? Scholars of Islamic thought offer some insight here. According to jurist Khalid Abou El Fadl, advocates of the religious right in Egypt and other Muslim-majority countries have "appropriated women's dignity into a symbol of honor for men," believing that the easiest and most effective way to prove one's religious legitimacy is to call for laws that are restrictive of women. As a result, those in Egypt's religious right have increasingly focused their attention on issues of morality, particularly as they pertain to the reputation and chastity of women.

Given this definition of the religious right in Egypt, we estimate that just over 60 percent of Egyptians might fall into this category. Among men, the proportion jumps to 80 percent, versus 45 percent of women. Another 20 percent of Egyptians -- predominantly women -- report beliefs indicating strong religious commitment, but not sharing the patriarchal values associated with the religious right. This leaves just 20 percent of Egyptians who meet conventional definitions of what we might think of as secular.

The personal piety of most regular Egyptians will come as no surprise to those who have spent any time in the country -- and, of course, there is no guarantee that all (or even most) of these religiously-minded individuals would necessarily be supporters of religiously based parties. Nor is there any guarantee that a party of the religious right in Egypt would be significantly different than the Justice and Development Party in Turkey. Nevertheless, our analysis indicates that the social and religious preferences of the Egyptian public are among the most conservative in the Muslim world. It remains to be seen whether Islamist political elites are able to mobilize this potential base of supporters in an upcoming, potentially free election.

'Hacktivists' launch second attack on Egypt

Last week, the FBI carried out search warrants in connection with Anonymous-led DDoS attacks





By Paul Wagenseil
SecurityNewsDaily
updated 1 hour 42 minutes ago 2011-02-03T15:39:21

Well, that didn’t take long.



No sooner had the government of Egypt restored Internet service to its citizens early Wednesday than the loosely organized cybervandals known as Anonymous were back at work trying to knock official Egyptian websites offline.


"We want freedom," self-declared Anonymous member Gregg Housh told the New York Times in a story posted Wednesday evening. "It’s as simple as that. We’re sick of oppressive governments encroaching on people."


Anonymous "hacktivists" also trained their "Low Orbit Ion Cannon" (LOIC), a free piece of software that makes it easy to stage distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, on sites belonging to the government of Yemen.


Like Egypt, the south Arabian country is seeing popular protests against a long-entrenched ruler.


A few Yemeni and Egyptian websites were unreachable Thursday morning, yet two prominent Egyptian sites blockaded by Anonymous last week were up and running as if nothing had happened.


The members of Anonymous claim solidarity with the people of Egypt and Yemen, but it’s not clear if blocking online access to a few government portals has any effect on a popular uprising that’s taking place in the streets.



Last week, the FBI carried out search warrants across the U.S., and British authorities arrested five men ranging in age from 15 to 26, all in connection with Anonymous-led DDoS attacks last fall on websites belonging to PayPal, Amazon and MasterCard.


In those instances, Anonymous was "retaliating" against those companies after they’d severed their business arrangements with the WikiLeaks group that released secret U.S. diplomatic correspondence.


There’s been no comment from American or British authorities about Anonymous attacks on sites belonging to foreign governments.


DDoS attacks work by flooding a website with billions of bogus requests for information, tying up its servers so that regular visitors cannot reach it. While they rarely cause permanent damage, DDoS attacks can cost online businesses millions of dollars in lost revenue.

Stocks Fall as Protests in Egypt Intensify


Stocks fall as traders worry about protests in Egypt, despite strong US economic news


The Associated Press
Post a Comment
By CHIP CUTTER AP Business Writer

NEW YORK February 3, 2011 (AP)



Stocks fell in early trading Thursday as investor worries about violent protests in Egypt outweighed relatively positive news on retail sales and the economy.
In this Feb. 1, 2011 photo, traders gather at a post on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange Tuesday, Feb. 1, 2011. (AP Photo/Richard Drew)


(AP)



Clashes continued in Egypt between pro- and anti-government demonstrators. Many analysts worried that the political instability could spread to oil-rich countries throughout the Middle East, such as Saudi Arabia.


"That's the fear," said Peter Cardillo, chief market economist at Avalon Partners.


The Dow Jones industrial average fell 17, or 0.1 percent, at 12,025.
The Standard & Poor's 500 index fell 2, or 0.2 percent, at 1,302. The Nasdaq composite index fell 2, or 0.1 percent, at 2,748.


The declines came even as the nation's retail chains reported surprisingly strong revenue gains in January. Financial analysts had feared that snowstorms would hurt spending. But Costco Wholesale Corp., Limited Brands and Gap Inc. all beat Wall Street expectations, and their stocks rose by more than 1 percent.


The Labor Department also reported that fewer people applied for unemployment benefits last week. That's a good sign ahead of the more significant employment report that comes Friday when the government releases its monthly survey of all U.S. payrolls and the unemployment rate.


Economists are hopeful that companies will increase hiring this year, especially after another Labor Department report said productivity rose by the largest amount since 2002 in December. Economists say many employers have reached the limit in terms of how much work they can squeeze from their employees.


The Commerce Department also said that factory orders rose in December, the fifth gain in six months.


In corporate news, warehouse club operator BJ's Wholesale Club Inc. rose 13.7 percent after it said it is considering selling itself after months of buyout speculation.


Dow Chemical Co. rose 1.6 percent after the chemical maker reported a sharply higher fourth-quarter profit as sales rose around the globe.


But Merck & Co. fell 2.9 percent after the company said the drugmaker said it lost $531 million in the fourth quarter due to costs from its acquisition of Schering-Plough Corp. in 2009. Merck was the weakest performer of the 30 companies that make up the Dow average.


Ameriprise Financial Inc. was the worst performer in the S&P 500, falling 6.7 percent. The asset management and financial planning company reported results late Wednesday that fell short of Wall Street estimates.

CAIRO - At least five anti-government protesters were shot dead in Tahrir Square early Thursday and hundreds more were injured, demonstrators said, as the bloody clashes between demonstrators and government loyalists continued for a second day.

With rights groups and key allies condemning Wednesday's attacks on protesters, Prime Minister Ahmed Shafiq apologized on state television and said he wanted to initiate dialogue with anti-government groups.
"I offer my apology for everything that happened yesterday because it's neither logical nor rational," Shafiq said. In an uncharacteristically conciliatory statement during a news conference, Shafiq said Wednesday's protests began in a civilized way, of which the country could be proud. The attack on protesters by supporters of President Hosni Mubarak, he said, was "a blatant mistake."
"Why did they go in?" Shafiq asked rhetorically. He promised there would be an investigation, "so everyone knows who was behind it."
At the same time, however, a spokesman for Shafiq's cabinet denied any government role in orchestrating the attacks. "We were surprised with all these actions," spokesman Magdy Rady told the Reuters. "To accuse the government of mobilizing this is a real fiction. That would defeat our object of restoring the calm."


And there was more bloodshed Thursday. Protest organizers said Mubarak supporters opened fire on demonstrators before dawn. Sporadic clashes continued through the day, though for the most part the pro- and anti-government groups kept their distance from each other, often on opposite sides of a line of military vehicles or personnel.
The were reports of journalists being intimidated or roughed up, and a U.S. State Department spokesman condemned such actions.
Multiple witnesses told The Washington Post that Cairo bureau chief Leila Fadel and photographer Linda Davidson were among two dozen journalists arrested Thursday morning by Egypt's Interior ministry, said Douglas Jehl, the Post's foreign editor.
Jehl said the Post has advised the State Department of the situation and has made "urgent protests to Egyptian authorities in Cairo and Washington."
Refusing to end their 10-day old demonstration, protesters set up makeshift hospitals in alleyways off the square to treat their wounded, and fashioned a holding cell in a nearby travel office to detain those they suspected of inciting the violence.
Organizers said they had captured more than 350 "thugs of the government" among the pro-government demonstrators, some carrying police identification cards, and turned them over to the Egyptian army.
"Mubarak told them to kill us," said Osama Hilal, 27, a doctor who was treating the wounded at a makeshift triage center. "He thinks he can succeed to make all the people get out of this square. But we will not leave."
