Egyptian activists have called for Egyptians to go to the streets on Friday in the ‘Second Friday of Anger.' Activists began their Facebook campaigns under the slogan, “I didn't feel the change, so I'll go to Tahrir again.” The first ‘Friday of Anger' was January 28, 2011, and was one of the bloodiest days of the Egyptian Revolution. The call for a million-man demonstration has become controversial between different political, revolutionary and religious powers in Egypt. Many political movements, including the Youth Revolution Coalition, have announced their participation in the ‘second revolution' on Friday. They justified the call by saying the January 25 Revolution is not in the right track as an inclusive revolution that overthrew the ruling regime. The political activist Khaled Talima, a member of the executive council of the coalition, told Youm7 that the call came to demand the establishment of a new constitution before holding parliamentary elections. He said, "We shouldn't wait until electing a new parliament to establish a new constitution, as the constitution is fixed and the parliamentary majority changes." Talima demanded transparency in all decisions taken in the current stage. He spoke specifically about revealing the mission of the new National Security Agency, of whose agents 70 percent are from the dissolved State Security Investigations. He demanded of quick, fair and transparent prosecutions of the former regime figures. The April 6 Youth Movement announced its participation in this Friday's demonstration, demanding the prosecution of the former president, his family and the figures of his regime, including some who have been released: Aisha Abdel-Hadi, Moufid Shehab and Ibrahim Kamel. The movement stressed that trials should not be limited to obtaining illicit gains. They said incitement to kill demonstrators during the revolution, political corruption and embezzling the public funds should also be leveled against members of the former regime. They demanded the formation of an independent judicial-civil committee to investigate the mentioned crimes. The “Free Gront for Peaceful Change" also announced its participation in Friday's demonstrations. They demanded organizing a public prosecution of Mubarak and the figures of his regime in Tahrir Square, depending on the revolutionary legitimacy. They considered such a step to be a response to the slowness in prosecuting the figures of the former regime. The front criticized the release of some figures of the former regime, calling it a ‘backward' step. They said the Egyptian people have been shocked by these measures, and emphasized that returning to Tahrir Square is to complete the revolution and to cleanse the country from the remnants of the former regime. The Muslim Brotherhood (MB) has refused to participate in Friday's demonstrations. They called the ‘Second Friday or Anger' a coup against the revolution and democracy. The Brotherhood said the scenario adopted by Egypt's ruling military council is suitable for the current stage. Sobhy Saleh, a leader in the MB, told Youm7 that "the group refuses participating as we are not foes of the government of Dr. (Essam) Sharaf or the military council which leads the country." He added that the different national and political powers should cooperate to get Egypt out of the current transitional stage and to eradicate the current state of insecurity. Salfis have also refused to participate in the May 27 demonstrations. They have begun a campaign on Facebook through a page titled, "The way of the right Salafis." They published a warning message to express their refusal of the protests organized by “seculars, liberals, atheists, and godless people.” The Salafis, a fundamentalist Islamic sect, acknowledged the legitimacy of the demands although they refuse to participate in the demonstrations. They said the current government can't achieve all the demands in this short period. They called for providing Sharaf's government with a suitable opportunity to achieve the required reforms after thirty years of corruption. Those responsible for the Salafi's Facebook page said the main objective of the May 27 demonstrations was to overthrow the ruling military council, which stands against the secular and Christian attempts to suppress Salafis, who now have the opportunity to take power after proving their innocence after smear campaigns against them by the secular, liberal and Christian media. The Unionist Party announce its participation the demonstrations that are scheduled for May 27 to save the revolution. Hussien Ashraf, an official in the party, called the members of the party to participate in the protests.
