They flock to in groups, even heart of their revolution. "It's about everything," they shout. The goal is the overthrow of Mubarak. "We feel the smell of freedom," said the entrepreneur Mustafa Amer, "and we stay until Mubarak has finally left the country." It would not matter if there were a million people now, or two million or 500,000.
The "March of Millions" is impressive proof of how strong the opposition against the president has become. Last week there were still tens of thousands of mostly young students. Within days of the protest has become a popular movement. Old men fighting for, in having young people on the crowded square.
Women with children make their way. Whole families have come to demonstrate against the rulers. The Mubarak regime has ever since the clear announcement of the army the day before, not wanting to move against the demonstrators, so weak and isolated than ever before in the 30-year reign of President.
Even the old power keeps it. The government on Tuesday again paralyze the Internet to stop migration to the Cairo and tried to block off the major roads in the metropolis. However, with this mass event sends the opposition an impressive character into his own country and the world, nothing seems able to stop them.
"It is now only a matter of time," said Safwan return. The university professor is given with a friend and his daughter Nadean to the square of liberation. "The sooner he goes, the faster we can change this country at last," he says. The signal to foreign countries is important for the demonstrators.
Again and again they come up to reporters who ask for assistance. The fear that the state could influence the reporting and distort this is still great. "Please send the truth, as are many of us here," one young man says he just on the edge of the square on state television, the official version of the protests seen that the day had no pictures of Tahrir Square, but instead small snippets demonstrated by alleged pro-Mubarak demonstrations.
In the afternoon, the regime-TV reported at least, there was protest in Cairo - it had come about 5000 people. The storm of wrath of the Mubarak-channel can certainly ensure that workers no longer reporting is more a testament to the utter blindness of the regime. The demonstrators in Cairo to celebrate so left out, as Mubarak is already past.
From the violent clashes with police in recent days, a kind of folk festival for freedom has become. Spread everywhere in the crowd men sesame sticks and dates, others to dozens of trucks with packages of water bottles onto the pitch. Volunteers collect trash. "Give a donation to the president," one of the men said with a gray plastic bag in hand, "all the garbage Mubarak receives from us soon as a parting gift." Earlier this week, such a joke, a reason for detention and beatings have been.
