During the last couple of days we have been hearing a lot about civil disobedience, starting with the fact that over 19 university's including GUC, AUC, Nile University, FUE and Cairo University have declared 11th February the beginning of civil disobedience in Egypt.
Civil disobedience in a well known form of peaceful resistance to power and the government. People decide to go on civil disobedience when the government is refusing to meet the demands of the people, and after all the other methods like protests don't work which is the case here in Egypt. The most famous case civil disobedience was actually in Egypt during the 1919 revolution, against the British occupation; so, as you can see its not something new to Egypt.
To put it simply during civil disobedience people will refuse to deal with any government organizations, go to work, pay their bills or go to schools and universities everything just stops to get the governments attention. Also stores close, traffic stops, sit ins will take place and again every thing just stands still, that is what civil disobedience is about. We deliberately and knowingly disobey the government or in our case the band of idiots, murderers and criminals who were assigned to rule Egypt.
I know this doesn't sound really good and people may think that this will destroy the country's economy and all that crap. This will happen to some extent, but lets face it SCAF wont leave and wont be brought to justice any other way. We have been trying to over throw SCAF for almost a year using the usual method which is Tahrir, and again lets face it Tahrir hasn't done anything so far except get people killed and mutilated during clashes between PEACEFUL protesters and the army and the CSF, what we got out of it is being called thugs and anarchists. Cleaning a country, demanding freedom, equality and justice has a price, there is no place in this fight for the cowards and for us to be free and win this fight we have to be able to pay this price.
Civil disobedience is the next logical step after Tahrir, its telling SCAF that no matter what they do we will still fight you and on our own terms; you wont leave because you want the money then we wont work and we wont do anything to get you money; you wont leave because you want power well that power isn't yours and you wont get it this power belongs to the people and the people say no.
Join us on February 11th, and tell SCAF to go to hell we aren't afraid to do what it takes to bring you to down.
