to his square is the focal point of the revolution in egypt even a year after the resignation of hosni mubarak it is still the center of public attention. but where for most of us how felt what way if a lot of the case but cannot get to catch up to the somewhat you know what about when he departed. but. many of those who were involved in the events of february two thousand and eleven have not left in the middle of the not by others that. live in tents not put up a makeshift gallows here the protesters have promised during the former presidents
1:48 am
and marshalltown tahrir with the country's current ruler. each day the never ending noise of trial here accompanies the work of touching mubarak. the shop is situated. close to the restless square. aside from his other activities young revolutionary khaled is the presenter of an analytical talk show a local channel it just so happens that about x. publish is the closest place where it can have his head trimmed before going on i'm sure you one of the revolutionary youths. one of the ones from talk years where. i like you guys you are the best generation and. nothing was happening in egypt before and i'm afraid it's a few minutes later the conversation predictably drifts to the much of the i left the football club fans the ultras came from another place they came from the streets where the palace of an oil stands tonight yes indeed i swear to god it was
1:49 am
going to real heroes. that missed the pearl eyes in the traffic in central cairo for several hours the marches from the football club all you reach that destination are just as palace ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah. the fans lit flares and chunks of the wood justice i would saw at the closed doors nobody emerged from the building to meet the fans. that evening the local t.v. talk show presided over by khaled focused on the football fan demonstration what caused the mask i eat the young revolutionary insists that when the tragedy occurred on the first of february two thousand and twelve the police did nothing to stop it the media outlets attempt to suppress the news. it wasn't
1:50 am
just a group of thugs attacking beating and killing others that's not the point and the point is that they punished fans what they had done for the sake of the revolution of the this means that they all thought. it's easy to blame what with the military council interior ministry and other government structures. i believe all of them behind those events i think that the media has a juicy to come out with a clear position instead of distorting the truth as. people in revolutionary egypt have changed their attitude towards the revolutions principle mouthpiece the qatar based al-jazeera news channels i am going to show you all not if it's true but during those eighteen days al-jazeera and other channels did a good deal to the public about the goings on it was quite unlike what the gyptian television was trying to demonstrate but also that channel began was in line with the requirements of the governments concerned or its own up. three journalists from
1:51 am
al jazeera as lebanese bureaus that in the spring of two thousand and twelve they were leaving the channel because of disagreements with it as a tauriel policy the main complaint concerned its coverage of syria the journalists say the channels could top executives pictures of government opposing government troops from t.v. screens. the problem is that they thought about we had independent media there was no independent media the media in general was i don't think. for example like you know promoting pollutions in. egypt. i don't think for example the revolution in saudi arabia in two thousand and eleven the news channel's one of its most experienced correspondents. does interviewees include his sheik. and feed castro for
1:52 am
a long time he was in charge of the channel's iranian pura they just held a similar post to the office in lebanon in the spring of two thousand and eleven as i left the child for saying he was not going to cooperate with a news outlet. which sacrificed objectivity for politically sponsored programming with them and i realized that i could not work and resigned with it i suddenly understood that i was afraid of those revolutions such thoughts appeared when the revolution in libya broke out of course i think that moammar gadhafi was a despotic and he ought to have stepped down what my fears grew on something that on face value looked like the beginning of a new arab reality with its revolution and change something very different underneath than any question he has at least. at least at. least there is that good. news that the.

cairo has followed a new routine for a year and as a rule must processions take place in the daytime so just off to lunch the thousands of demonstrators include people from all walks of life unison the work is angry at lives salaries football fans and religious radicals of every description often demonstrations hold rallies near the public show run by mubarak he shivers each time his name is chosen by the crowd. yes i. was. the baba gives us his weight pledge allegiance to revolutionary ideals but in the evening he prefers to bring down the shots and save his shop window just in case.
1:54 am
then i know what i should be yes i did say this the revolution has been a success i mean ask you a question if you remember students going off university campuses such things only happened in the one nine hundred seventy s. and yesterday they held a rally in front of the defense ministry is that true. yes it is what does it mean it means that we have freedom isn't that so they used to be locked inside their university staying under control and supervision if they did anything wrong the next day they got arrested which was a case so it is freedom what else. does
