On Egypt's revolution: courtesy of Dr. Dahab

The following is courtesy of Comparative World Literature faculty member Dr. F. Elizabeth Dahab:

Luckily, there are moments of infinite beauty in a Revolution stemming from the People. Here is one (video) of those moments, led by a five-year old!



This young boy is chanting at least 15 slogans. At one point he stumbles and looks at the sign in his hand. Someone besides him humors him: "Are you cheating or what"?

Here are some of the slogans he chants (I [Dr. Dahab] translated them into English below):

-Hosni Mobarak, Suzanne Mobarak, Ahmed Shafik, Omar Soleiman : Null and Void
-Where are the journalists. Here are the Thousands
-Resistance until the regime steps down
-Take heart our country; freedom is being born
-The People demand the fall of the regime
-Step down step down Hosni Mobarak
-Revolution till victory
-We are all one hand; we are all together
-Egypt, here are your children; for you we have worried so
-Revolution on all the streets of Egypt
-Neither Shafik nor Soleiman [newly appointed prime Minister and vice-president];they are American collaborators
-Wake up, Mobarak. Today is your last day
-The people want to condemn the president
-The people demand the fall of the regime
-Until the regime falls down
-Mother Egypt, we are not tired: Liberty takes time
