by Jerome Roos on July 1, 2013

Military source claims that as many as 14 million could have mobilized across the country, which would constitute the largest protest in world history.

Egypt once more defied all expectations on Sunday, when Tahrir Square was re-occupied and millions took to the streets across the crisis-ridden country in an attempt to push President Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood from power and resume the revolutionary process that was kick-started with the spontaneous popular uprising that toppled Mubarak in January and February 2011.

In Praise of Pirates. Hurrah for Ned Snowden! Pirate Utopias

The Rarely Told Story: Pirates as Radical Commoners

Tue, 06/25/2013 – 17:02
