We can by no means accept Al-Badri Farghali, former parliamentarian and head of the Pensioners Federation, saying that members of the federation would block roads in governorates if the government did not meet their demands. We also cannot accept that South Sinai Bedouins bloc Sharm el-Sheikh road to call for releasing some defendants. Anyway, we call for giving Farghali and other pensioners their complete rights. We are also with giving the Sinai Bedouins their rights without any procrastination. However, there is a great difference between calling for your right and encroaching upon the rights of others. The accidents of blocking roads have been repeated till they have become boring and unacceptable. Those people should know that they block roads before innocent people who have nothing to do with their problems. We suffer a lot when the motorcade of an official blocks the road. We call for finding a solution for this catastrophe that makes our blood boil. When some people block the road in protest against their bad conditions, they lead to the same catastrophe and imprison people in cars for hours as if they were not human beings. On the other hand, the international community moves to stop the Somali piracy in the Indian Ocean or the Gulf of Aden to protect ordinary people in their way. The same thing applies to kidnapping some tourists to the south of Egypt last September, as those kidnappers should have been completely liquidated if they released the kidnapped or not because they practiced a form of piracy. I do not talk about the dignity of the government in this regard, because such a point was covered by Dr. Abdel Moneim Sayed in his wonderful article on the back-page of Al-Masry Al-Youm's last Sunday's issue. I talk about another dignity, which is the dignity of the ordinary citizens who should go on their way safely. We support other thousand means of protest except blocking roads because you block roads before citizens like you and not before the government.
