al-jazeera dot com coming up next here it's inside story do stay with us. well the protests against egypt's president spread demonstrators demand the resignation of abdul fattah el-sisi because they say he's corrupt how will he and the army respond to one of the largest challenges to his rule so far this is inside story.

hello welcome to the program on iran come on protests are rare in today's egypt's president. has stifled dissent ever since he deposed his predecessor in a military coup 6 years ago but the government ban on protests has been defined in several cities over the past 2 nights. security forces in so as fired bullets and protestors were demanding cc's resignation dozens were arrested nitocris square in cairo when the revolution to overthrow president hosni mubarak unfolded the defiant display of anger fled when protesters hey it had the latest corruption allegations now sisi denies squandering public money the former military contractor who made the allegations is warning of more protests. i'm still waiting for a response from the defense minister and security forces saying sisi is out he is

no longer fit for office next friday is his ultimatum i'm waiting for that decision and the next step is a multi 1000000 man march we started in our local streets next friday we will take to the major squares. so what are the allegations against president sisi egyptian business on mohammad ali worked as a military contractor for 15 years now living in spain he began posting videos this month alleging says he spent millions of dollars of public money building palaces villas and hotels also q.c. she's wife into sort of squandering public funds on vanity projects and he accuses egypt's transport minister major general kemal always in and several military leaders of stealing money from construction companies working with the army including his own and hourly accuse the military's engineering or 40 of failing to invite tenders and directly awarding projects to companies.

let's bring in. the middle east and north africa research a human rights watch in washington d.c. he called mid egypt's domestic affairs analyst and. a short founding director of the critical security studies program at the doha institute a welcome to you all like to begin with you are in the in what mohammed ali has done is effectively broken too big to have these within egyptian society criticizing the army and even more criticizing the president that's sparked a movement of people out on the streets could this movement build always saying then you are. that's a question. i think there is no definitive answer to it but i think i believe that the. the bus 2 weeks what mohammed adi has done is he

actually managed to do things that all. have not been able to do in the past few years and. president his government has some heard every bit of damage to their image to dinner but. any use of violence such as what happened in. by security forces on friday night will. more damage i think. the main reason why actually people took to the streets in response to these calls is because there are no other channels no other. windows for any peaceful action in egypt in a normal to society in a normal. i wouldn't say even democracy but. i think. of corruptions could be. you know

could be covered by. articles by investigative journalism by judiciary in a situations but in egypt all these things done do not exist and the only thing people herb's now is to protest to go to the streets and to shore their anger and frustration that has built up to unprecedented levels in the bust years let me bring in till he come in here from a washington d.c. are these baseless allegations made by a disgruntled businessman or is this a real threat to the presidency is his role i see this allegations. as not a threat to the presidency see because obviously when you see is any gay sions he's accusing the president are all of this system of using some money to build some places he called them palaces for the president which he is inaudible part of many

governments to put some money to build things for the president office for meetings and he didn't prove or show any evidence that any of this money went to prison c.c. account for example bank account personally so you can't say oh really it is corruption it's something that was built in respect of the decision could be right could be wrong that's another issue but it is certainly not corruption corruption is when you give government money to employ you to put it in his personal account the 2nd thing is that the people of egypt it solved it in 3 actor to this message as you can see from the very small number of the demonstrators in the streets reuters describe this as few hundreds going and i can see even if it is in 1000 if it is even if it is that many on this that are present one percentage of the egyptian society they didn't come up for more than 10000 all all over the country but let us as you know 1000000 people when it is one percent of the society so it's

hard towards. scribed what sort of democracy mohammad ali and the other people are demanding if one percent of the society want to directed their country against their will of the majority of people especially when we know the fact that there mohammad ali himself thanking the military and the police for not using harsh harsh hand with the demonstrators the allow them peacefully in most cases to live in a straight and and yet the egyptian people didn't go into the street so no one can say that there is even god because they were scared of the police and military that that guy himself mohammad ali the guy who initiated the stations thanking the police and the military for being peaceful with the people in the streets yet the egyptians didn't go so i see that the many egyptians recognize that these allegations are they they can have some base yeah that's there is some

things or palaces that have been built but this could be corrected the situation to improve the image of the country this may be incorrect as usual in all situations it's not a proof of course no money went into the bank account of president sissi insult to feel this was a message of assisi when he wants but muhammad ali doesn't have to prove corruption only has to do is a legit the genie is then out of the bottle and people on the street i'm a show i want to bring you in here. it's hell people are out there now people are out in the streets this built you you know we saw this in 2011 but these are protesters very seemingly people who are younger and probably weren't on the streets in 2000 level who have come out on the streets today couldn't get the. it could egypt has all the structural conditions for a successful resistance campaign mobilization very young population on one and.

intense sustained grievances that have been going on for a long time even beyond this generation. and specially on 2 issues highlighted one is the issue of corruption that mohamed atta the moralists became sparked and sparked in a way that is unconventional in a way that was a lesson in strategic communications if you wish although the guy that's not even have a university degree he gave a lesson to there all the ph d.'s in the opposition how to communicate with the working class and how to explain with them some very complex issues in a very simple language the information by the way he gave was not new. most of the specialist i know who work on the military economy understand the level of corruption actually give more data and more numbers he just simplified it out there in the numbers in a very communicable language to the to the working class and i think that's his skill set. so that on one end so what he did really is you have the structural

conditions you have the grievances you have the depression you have the huge level of unprecedented level of oppression because even compared to mubarak era this is takes it to another level the level of corruption as well is unprecedented i believe and all what you need is an eye on population and all what you need is a somebody to spark to spark this and this is what happened in 2010 with the death of credit saeed in june 2010 who basically paid with his life to get egypt to 2 years of freedom between 272013 and yet now we have somebody else who was who's who sparking in a very different way he didn't pay with his life is more or less was part of the corruption and then decided to. do to provide very in tents a message. with this and him his identity of the messenger is very important as well and yet you have that kind of mobilizations is quite new that's on one and on the other end how will the regime is going to deal with it this is the big question

mark what we saw now is that the extremely heavy handed crackdown on demonstrations did not happen it was mainly at rest and then releases after some releases after that it was tear gas as opposed to just usual fighting and automatic rifles in the whole trifles and sometimes machine guns. crackdowns that we saw in 201-520-1420 extension 15 later on 2017 did not materialize dysthymia which tells me that there is something going on probably within the security in the military i put out this unclear so far we have 3 things that developed one was a statement from general sami on and that came out confidently with the gay sions. the man was the former chief of staff of in egypt's army was the 2nd man in the. 2011. and he's in prison now for 10 years. and the 2nd one and he's still part and

parcel of the regime part of the parcel of the leadership in the military establishment who is also issuing statements talking about you know toppling the regime very very clearly or toppling the c.c.c. specifically the 2nd thing came from also the questioning that we know now that some of the activists who were arrested were questioned about their links to general who was mubarak's last prime minister a general who wanted to run for elections came number came in 2nd in 2012. millions basically voted for him 48 percent of the electorate in the 2nd round. and then after that he wanted to go for presidential elections at lest in the u.a.e. and then deported to egypt and then placed under house arrest in egypt so there is worries among the let's say the factions loyal to sisi within the regime that your feet has been. inspiring or maybe you will.
