Anti-Coup Pro-Legitimacy National Alliance Statement on Second Wave of Revolution
The Anti-Coup Pro-Legitimacy National Alliance solemnly salutes the families of all martyrs, detainees and wounded Egyptians, men and women, revolutionaries who are steadfast in liberty squares, prisons and universities, rising in anger in all corners of the nation.
The Alliance agrees with the call by ‘Youth Against the Coup’ for a second wave of the Revolution to last 11 consecutive days, starting March 19, 2014, under the banner "Our Streets… Together for Deliverance" as part of the slogan of the Alliance "One Revolution, One Blood, One Murderer".
The Alliance also affirms the following:
• The Alliance has studied feedback regarding the first revolutionary wave, started on the third anniversary of the January 25 Revolution. We are aware of the positive and negative aspects. We launch the new revolutionary wave in light of this field study, responding to the comments and advancing the Revolution.
• On March 19, 2011, was the first call to a national referendum, usurped by the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF) at the time, meaning to disrupt the path of the Revolution and break the ranks of revolutionaries, and take control of the results announced on March 30, 2011. Now, in 2014, the Alliance strives to turn this period into a launching point for the completion of the Revolution by uniting the ranks of revolutionaries for the sole benefit of the nation.
• The Alliance continues to work to implement the revolutionary vision it issued on January 23, 2014, based on its overall strategic vision, its objectives and ongoing field developments.
• The Alliance affirms demands for fair retribution, reclaiming the Revolution, empowering constitutional legitimacy and activating the democratic path, in order to realize the people’s original objectives: "bread, freedom, social justice and human dignity".
• The Alliance will defeat the heinous plots of Al-Sisi and his collaborators, who are supported by the Zionist-American alliance. This is essential to avert the disaster of Egypt turning into an US-subjugated state under Zionist guardianship, to stop the sale of the nation to its enemies, and to halt the impoverishment of our people, the suppression of state institutions and the transformation of Egypt into a private fiefdom.
The National Alliance, as it observes the deep crises of the coup commanders and collaborators, calls on all Egyptians outraged by the current situation to mobilize and stand ready, to prepare the ground for the Revolution with ingenuity and devotion, by tiring out falsehood, to honor the martyrs, break the bonds of the detainees, bring justice to the oppressed, and console the weak, the wronged and the poor.
