Egypt: Mubarak sentenced to life in prison

  1. In Egypt, Palestine and the ME, military officers which order the use of deadly force against unarmed protesters must be held accountable.
  2. Complete and utter revolutionary failure. No hope in legal system.
  3. Shafik wants Adly's aides so that he can kill protesters in #Tahrir over again when he takes over.
  4. Fights on the street 'aizeen Shafiq' (we want Shafiq) 'gamal and Alaa will join him' #EgyElections #Mubaraktrial
  5. LOL RT @SultanAlQassemi Egypt's next president will have the authority to pardon Husni Mubarak (if the verdict remains in a court of appeal)
  6. Fear what all the former police leadership will do to us now that they are free
  7. Mubarak and Hussein Salem not indicted on corruption charges bc alleged crime occurred over 10 years ago & statute of limitations expired
  8. Sickened by acquittal of Mubarak sons and aides. As a woman next to me shrieks, 'at this rate, Gamal might still be a future President' #eg
  9. The acquittal of Adly's aids and sentencing Adly himself is the story of Egypt after Jan25: Get rid of the head yet keep the regime.
  10. Lawyers for victims families say the verdict was a blank cheque for defendants to appeal and eventually get off #MubarakTrial
  11. The vindication of security generals is a message to their successors: "kill with impunity." @SultanAlQassemi @wael #egypt #MubarakTr
  12. The ruling is in favor of the system. It =crystallizes the notion that a figure is gone, not a regime, not a system #mubaraktrial
  13. If #Mubarak and sons ate innocent of corruption where did they get the money, businesses and land? Why was Gamal on board of several banks?
  14. Initial, fleeting satisfaction, followed by disappointment, and then anger. The whole transition in a moment. #mubaraktrial
  15. Sure thing is the judiciary system remains corrupt “@AlOraibi: One clear verdict in #MubarakTrial is that the judiciary in Egypt is guilty”
  16. Joy turns to anger as mourners come around to the fact that Adly's aides, Gamal & Alaa were all acquitted and that verdicts can be appealed
  17. So it turns out that Alaa and Gamal were nothing more than very good businessmen! #MubarakTrial #Corruption
  18. To recap: in this historic case prosecution failed to present enough evidence to convict the head of riot police Ahmed Ramzy of ANYTHING
  19. Unable to indict Alaa, Gamal and Adly's aides as evidence was destroyed. By whom, is the big question #Mubaraktrial #Mubarak
  20. I don’t get how head of MOI Aldy charged yet no policeman nor his men get charged with anything?!!!! #MubarakTrial
  21. #Mubaraktrial All of the MOI officials are innnocent, Mubarak & his sons cleared of financial corruption charges. fun fun
  22. This sucks, people are seriously NOT happy... also the verdict basis are enough to acquit #Mubarak & #ElAdly in the 2nd round of trial!!!
