“You know what I did? I left troops to take the oil. I took the oil. The only troops I have are taking the oil, they’re protecting the oil. I took over the oil.”

  • Cette remarque réjouie d’Angry Arab est largement reprise sur le Web : les images de Moubarak derrière les barreaux ont une force symbolique énorme.

    Mubarak behind bars – Angry Arab
    http://angryarab.blogspot.com/2011/08/mubarak-behind-bars.html

    I was delighted to see that darling of Israel and Zionists worldwide behind bars. I could hear Israeli sobbing in the background. But it is funny how the man who always appeared in vigorous health suddenly became weak and incapacitated as soon as he was overthrown. It seems he is still dying his hair. But don’t be fooled: I worry that his appearance today was intended to appease angry Egyptians and then to abort a real trial for all his crimes against the Egyptian people. Pressures on the Military Council should be sustained. Tantawi was not going to let Mubarak appear in court if the demonstrated did not start chanting for Tantawi’s overthrow weeks ago. He got the message and had to comply. The symbolism of the images are enormous: the images are being shared on Arabic twitter and Facebook with great jubilation.

    La « presse française », elle, préfère rester dans sa posture fondamentalement troudeballistique. (Mention spéciale pour Libération.)

    La comparution sur une civière de l’ancien homme fort égyptien Hosni Moubarak, jugé pour meurtres et corruption, suscite à la fois espoir et malaise dans la presse française de jeudi.

    « Malaise. Le procès Moubarak a démarré par une mise en scène sinistre visant l’humiliation de l’accusé, la justice ménageant une belle place à son contraire : la vengeance », écrit le directeur du quotidien de gauche Libération, Nicolas Demorand.
