Egypt

January 28-February 2, 2013

Egypt: Is it civil war or just a confusion between the people and the authorities? Is Egypt going to collapse as its military is predicting? Is there going to be a military coup? Is there any ideology that could unite the country; any strife for social justice. I worked in the tear-gas infested Cairo and in Port Said that was under siege. I worked on the banks of Suez Canal, taken over by the military. What I saw I did not like, and it appears that most of Egyptians I spoke to, did not like it either. I had been filming and producing several reports. And I will be back, next week.
