The new Egyptian revolution “Correcting the Path” started after it was revealed the Pro-U.S. military government would remain in power, even after so called democratic elections in the future.
U.S. President Barack Obama, has demanded the Egyptian military government protect the Israeli embassy, but live video shows that’s too late.
Egyptian military government has declared a state of emergency for all of Egypt, and called an emergency meeting of officials.
Egyptian officials say the Israeli ambassador is right now waiting for a plane to take him out of Egypt.
Israel is sending in military transports to evacuate Israeli citizens from Egypt!
Live reports say thousands of Egyptians are surrounding the Israeli embassy.
One protestor said no Israeli walls shall be built “…on Egyptian soil, we will fight to the end, we will win, god willing!”
Another protestor said “This is not Gaza, we don’t want the military government!”
After Friday prayers Egyptians crowded Liberation Square chanting “The revolution is still in the Square!”
This second Egyptian Revolution is being called “Correcting the Path”.
Live reports from Egypt show the Israeli embassy is completely engulfed in flames!
Egyptian troops were called out and attacked the protestors. Egyptian health officials say at least 219 Egyptians have been wounded, and one man died from tear gas inhalation.
“Calling for outside intervention is a sensitive issue that could be used by the regime to label its opponents as traitors. We are calling for international observers as a first step. If the regime refuses it will open the door on itself for other action, such as no-tank or no-fly zones.”-Syrian Revolution General Commission
“Currently we are waiting for the prosecutor’s office to issue an order for arrest.”-Ramazan Ariturk, attorney
A lawyer for the Humanitarian Relief Foundation submitted to prosecutors a list of Israeli soldiers involved in a deadly raid on a flotilla sent by the group to break the Gaza blockade.
On May 31, 2010, Eight Turkish citizens and one U.S. citizen were killed when Israeli commandos boarded the Mavi Marmara, flag ship of the six-boat Gaza aid flotilla.
Ramazan Ariturk says he got the list of more than 10 Israel soldiers from other Israelis who’re disgusted by what happened: “Some Israeli soldiers who regretted what happened reached me and gave some of the soldier’s identities.”
Egyptians have broken through part of a wall built around the Israeli embassy. Latest reports say protestors have torn down the Israeli flag.
Unnamed Egyptian security officials say the building which houses both residential apartments and the Israeli embassy, has been stormed by at least 30 protestors.
The protestors have ransacked offices and are throwing documents printed in Hebrew out the windows. Reporters have tried contacting Israeli officials in the embassy, but no one is answering the phones.
Egyptians are still angry about Israel killing at least eight Egyptian border patrol troops last month. Egyptians are also accusing the pro-U.S. military rulers of Egypt of being puppets of Israel.
“Turkish warships, in the first place, are authorized to protect our ships that carry humanitarian aid to Gaza. From now on, we will not let these ships to be attacked by Israel, as what happened with the Freedom Flotilla.”-Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Prime Minister of Turkey
Erdogan said that Turkey will boost its naval presence in eastern Mediterranean to challenge Israel’s domination in the sea.
In a reference to Israeli plans to exploit huge gas and oil reserves found beneath the Mediterranean Sea, that are claimed by Lebanon, Erdogan said Turkish forces will also stop Israel from exploiting natural resources in the area.
On July 26 Lebanon issued similar warnings to Israel: “We warn Israel against extending its hands to this area to steal Lebanon’s resources from Lebanese waters.”-Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah, Hezbollah Secretary General
The Turkish prime minister indicated that Israel’s claim to all the resources of the Mediterranean is what will lead to war: “You know that Israel has begun to declare that it has the right to act in exclusive economic areas in the Mediterranean. You will see that it will not be the owner of this right, because Turkey, as a guarantor of the Turkish republic of north Cyprus, has taken steps in the area, and it will be decisive and holding fast to the right to monitor international waters in the east Mediterranean.”
A Kobe, Japan, private-sector group announced the results of their studies on sunflowers in the contaminated areas of Japan.
They grew sunflowers in 4 fields in Minamisoma City, within 30 kilometers (18.6 miles) of the damaged Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant.
They found that soil contamination was reduced between 20% and 50%. Radiation was absorbed by the sunflowers’ roots. The problem is that the sunflowers are now considered nuclear waste.
Researchers at the Japan Atomic Energy Agency, Kyoto University and other institutes say the actual radiation pouring into the Pacific Ocean, from Fukushima Daiichi, is at least three times what Tokyo Electric Power Company is officially reporting.
The researchers say that at least 15,000 terabecquerels (1 terabecquerel = 1.0 × 10+12 becquerels) of radioactive iodine-131 and cesium-137 has entered the ocean!!! They say TEPCo is not monitoring airborne radiation that falls into the ocean.
