Dozens of Egyptian protestors spent Thursday night in Cairo's Tahrir Square to prepare for protests planned for Friday entitled “Thanks, Return to Barracks.” Egyptian political movements and coalitions called for the protest demanding the repeal of the Emergency Law, to reject military trials for civilians, and to determine a specific timeline for the transfer of power to a civil authority. Political forces and parties that met with Egypt's ruling Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF) did participate in the protests. Protestors held discussion sessions to determine ways to realize the January 25 Revolution's unachieved demands. Other protestors repeated slogans against the Ministry of Interior and the military council. Supporters of Islamic thinker and likely Egyptian presidential candidate Hazem Salah Abu Ismail built a stage in the Square to participate in the protests. Abu Ismail rejected agreements between some political parties' leaders and the military council. The “9/9 Front” raised large banners big slogans that read "We will not forget martyrs killed by Israel". The Front demanded the remaining demands of the revolution including: • dismissing the current government • transferring power to a civil authority • purifying the media and judiciary • dismissing the Attorney-General • cancelling military trials for civilians • releasing political detainees • cancelling the Emergency Law • setting minimum wages • achieving social justice. The 9/9 Front includes the Kefaya movement, the We Will not Recognize Israel movement, Square Sound Youth movement, the Arab Revolution Youth movement, the January Rebels movement, and the Resistance and Freedom movement.
