  1. Re sit in! You need to consolidate your Occupation! Provided you have your own webstream as suggested ! You are in public view. MSM are fickle. The next big thing i.e. Syria, Iran,... will happen and when the attention is off; the thugs will move in. *Unless* -like other Occupations- you broadcast yourselves.
  2.  
  3. *Give purpose to you Occupation!
  4.  
  5. Personally I would go with a school for the street kids. It sends a very positive message and is a public good. The Tahrir Free School is an entirely different proposition to The Tahrir protest camp. Thugs tearing down a free school?
  6.  
  7. The Tahrir Free University could like the OccupyLSX university which now is an automatic point of call for left and alternative thinkers from abroad! And also our MSM.
  8.  
  9. We use it to change minds.
  10.  
  11. However I would site that at a squat or Occupied building. Your next target IMHO
  12.  
  13. In the short term you need volunteers to man the current Occupation(s) You will probably be moved on from the Cabinet hopefully by due legal process! Be prepared to take up another Occupation. Ideally you want multiple sites all over Egypt. Here in the UK we now have 3 sites in London. More to follow ;) And camps in 20 to thirty cities. Edinburgh City Council just gave its backing to the Camp there and other councils are doing the same.
  14.  
  15. *Diversify your Occupation!
  16.  
  17. In London there are permanent residents and thoose that come down for the Weekend. During the Week the tents are shared! The Camp is a physical symbol of passive resistance. So powerful that the 1% of the Global elites are scared! However there are other statements you can make and symbols you can use. I have suggested some...

  20. Get your general Assembly to decide on the next permanent Occupation. I would suggest Alexandria but Luxor is nice at this time of year. Alternatively the palaces built on stolen land at Sharm el Sheik/ Hurgada etc spring to mind! Use those to point out the corruption of the last regime especially if the owners are ex- or current high ranking military types!
  21.  
  22. *Refocus your Occupation!
  23.  
  24. Remember the Egy people will tire of the same old routine. Also they will not want to be reminded of Death EVERY FRIDAY!
  25.  
  26. So make your stunts political and fun! Think Positive not Negative.
  27.  
  28. So here is an Idea
  29. Construct a mock jail out of plastic plumbing pipe to draw attention to the mass arrests. Gradually fill with 10,000 odd balloons - each with a name tag. You will have to keep replacing the balloons. But a laminated tag should be pretty durable.
  30.  
  31. Each time you add a balloon (Tag) get the families down; get the media in! Build up the collection. Campaign on the unfairness of the military trials. The balloons only get released when the last prisoner is!
  32.  
  33. Kids finding the tags get a reward! The furthest tag gets something special.
  34.  
  35. Time to grow the Movement from the fringes of the radical left into the mainstream. Support the disadvantaged, those marginalised even by by the MB. Move onto their territory. Remember the MB will be 'in power' and therefore can be blamed for the poor economy, corruption and the weather. Let the Revolution become an Evolution and you will attract the numbers.
  36.  
  37. Time to sit down and THINK.
  38.  
  39.
