FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda
The Mubarak trial has gone from its initial moments of high drama, with
supporters and opponents fighting outside as television footage showed him
being wheeled into court, his sons Gamal and Alaa in their prison uniforms
alongside him, to a confusing morass for many Egyptians.
Long and argumentative procedural wrangling was followed by a very quick
outline of the prosecution case. It demanded the death penalty but failed to
put on the witness box any aides who had heard him give orders to open fire
– at least as far as anyone knows, as the military figures closest to him
gave evidence in camera.
Even though his interior minister, Habib al-Adly, is facing the same charges,
no explanation was offered either for the sudden decision on Friday January
28, the day the shooting reached a peak, to withdraw police from the
streets, which remains the revolution’s greatest mystery. In all, 846 people
are estimated to have died in the revolution.
Alaa and Gamal Mubarak are accused of corruption.
In keeping with growing disillusionment at the continued strength of the
army’s grip on power, many young activists believe that the regime is
deliberately trying to ensure Mr Mubarak does not face prison, let alone the
death penalty.
Mr Deeb, though, went one further, trying to rehabilitate the ex-dictator.
In his two-hour opening speech, he said Mr Mubarak was “a just man, not a
tyrant”. “A man like him cannot be held responsible for criminal
acts like those he is accused of committing,” he said.
