Peaceful ‘Last Chance’ rally in Cairo buoys hopes for election..

As night fell Friday, about 50,000 Cairenes gathered in Tahrir Square for what they called a “Last Chance” rally. Like the White House, they demanded the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces surrender political control now rather than according to a revised timetable announced only three days ago that would see them out of politics after presidential elections in June.

Divining where Egypt is headed is impossible before the first round of voting in parliamentary elections. The military insists that will occur on Monday despite widespread fear the results may be tarnished because many voters will be too afraid to vote.

One of the reasons for the uncertainty is that against widespread expectations, there was little violence between protesters and security forces Friday — unlike bloody and deadly mayhem earlier in the week.

Those gathering in Tahrir Square and those who oppose them have demonstrated remarkably unpredictable mood swings. Friday’s protest felt far more like a “date night” or carnival than a seething mass demonstration of public political will.

Metres away from where about 40 protesters were killed in lopsided battles with police earlier in the week, parents with children in tow, as well as pensioners and young couples posed for photos. They feasted on roasted corn, drank chilled beverages, sang patriotic songs and were serenaded by men playing a traditional stringed instrument known as a rababa.

“If the generals leave, who rules us?” wondered nut vendor Ahmed Mohammad.

The father of three confided he had slept in the square most nights since Hosni Mubarak was stripped of the presidency nine months ago.

His voice dropping to a whisper — lest others be offended at what was supposed to be a rally to denounce the military — he added: “I don’t mind if it is a general as long as it is a new one who has a strong grip.”

That is still regarded as a possibility by many anxious protesters, despite promises this week by the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces that it would cede power by next July.

There are as many opinions about how to handle this complicated battle of wills as there were people Friday packing Tahrir Square — the iconic traffic roundabout near the Nile River that has been ground zero of Egypt’s Arab Spring since mass demonstrations forced Mubarak from office after 30 years in power.

“For the time being there is confusion and we have no idea who will end up leading us but it must not be the military,” said Sherine Ahmed, a urologist who had come to the square with one sister who is a pediatrician and another sister who is a dentist to express their contempt for the generals.

“They lied to us when Mubarak left. They will not be allowed to lie again.”

Preparing for the worst, the sisters arrived in the square with gas masks and goggles in their purses. However, for the first time in days there was no stinging whiffs of tear gas fouling the air.

“The generals must go because they have to,” said Wedad Ahmed, the dentist. “If they don’t quit one million Egyptians won’t protest. The whole country will,” added sister Dina.

Ali Soleiman, a lawyer and plastics and glass trader who ambled around the square with a group of men wearing the long robes and long beards associated with the most pious Muslims, agreed the military has been responsible for the violence.

“We all had hoped they would have achieved more in the past months than they have,” he said. “But we have to be patient. There cannot be change until there is an obvious successor.”

Said Dina Ahmed, pondering why Friday’s large demonstration had not triggered mayhem despite widely divergent political views: “The intention has always been for peaceful protests and then things happen that we do not understand.”

Mohammad, the nut vendor, observed that peaceful demonstrations are always better for his modest business.

Whether Friday’s quiet demonstration was a blip or something that might now take hold is unknown. But those of every political stripe who turned out for the “Last Chance” rally regarded it as an encouraging sign that the first round of balloting on Monday might be peaceful after all.canada.com
