48 Hours Before The Big Event

Dr. Mohamed ElBaradei will come back to Cairo insha Allah after 48 hours , there is a lot of anticipation and expectations with various calls for a real public reception to whom seems to be our last hope for a change "or as it seems". ElBaradei will arrive to Cairo insh Allah next 19 February 3 PM on the Austrian airlines flight no. 863.Big hope or big mirage
Prestigious personalities in the society from public figures announced boldly that they are going to receive ElBaradei at Cairo airport  like for instance novelist Alaa El-Aswany who called in his weekly column at Shorouk Daily the Egyptians to receive the former IAEA chief describing his arrival as a new page for our quest to freedom and democracy.  Due to the international fame of Al-Aswany this column was highlighted abroad , of course locally the official media ignored him but I wonder how much the official media can ignore the similar calls from people for instance like Ambassador Nabil El-Araby , our former ambassador to the UN and respectable Judge at the IJC !!?? El-Araby wrote today in Shorouk Daily defending his old friend and also supporting him at the same time diplomatically.
By the way Nabil El-Araby is married to Haikel's sister in law.
I am excited , I can't deny it even if it turns to be a mirage despite my fear on how the security will handle next Friday at Cairo airport. The regime will be lying if it claims that it is not worried about that day and this flight. Already what happened earlier today to Mohamed ElBaradei's supporters in Cairo makes me worry.
Just earlier today activists Ahmed Maher and Amr Ali from 6 April youth were arrested by the security and were reportedly attacked at Agouza police station. What did Maher and Ali do ??
Maher and Ali
Well they were accused of staging a coup d'etat against the regime !!!!!! Yes coup d' etat through writing anti-Mubarak regime slogans in the streets !! They were not caught red handed still they found spray cans in Maher's car.
This photo was taken by Hani Fakery , I bet the slogans have been removed afterwards.

Mubarak's regime is over , support the change , support ElBaradei candidacy
The two young men are facing dangerous accusations and unfortunately this is not the first time Maher is arrested by the security forces after all he was the godfather of 6th April strike.
These two young are putting their lives on the stake , I hope that Dr.Mohamed ElBaradei realizes that in Vienna when he reads the news of these two who believe in him. He is better to be the man many people are waiting for next Friday, I do not want him to lead a revolution but to be genuine and honest in fight just like these two young men.
By the way Mona El-Shazely is going to host Mohamed ElBaradei in his appearance on TV on air after returning back either on Saturday or Sunday on her news night talk show "10 PM" , I am not sure yet. His last interview with El-Shazely was the one that made many Egyptians see a potential of president in ElBaradei.

Update #1:
Ok the rivalry between El-Shazely and Amr Adeeb is good for us , as the later recorded an interview with ElBaradei in Austria this week. According to Adeeb ElBaradei is upset for the arrest of the 6th April activists because of him ,it seems that he called him today.
