Note: Daily News Egypt (IHT Sup) frontpage headline today: "Egyptian and international activists protest Gaza wall" and Egtyptian Mail frontpage: "Barrier ignites legal battle." (these don't seem to be avil online yet.)
Another way to persue getting power of attorney for the Ibrahim is to become a permanent resident. To do this, go to the Mogamma a Tahrir, the big government building on Tahrir Sq near "Free Gaza Plaza" -- where we had the candlelight vigile. There is the Immegartion Service, Mafalaha Gawazat. According to info I have, go to the 8th fl, window 43. Get perm residency status.
You will then need to go back to the place we went after the 11:00 protest yesterday with an Arabic speaker. For futher info, contact:
Prof Mohammed A. Sharaf

I am passing along the best info I have, best to direct questions and requests for futher help to the prof. I have not done this yet, it's my understanding that Medea did it yesterday and Mick (from the Scottish del, mobile: 0192247860) is doing it today. I should say, one benefit of persuing the going to embassy course would be to ask them while there if they have lodged a protest about how many were beaten, kicked, dragged on New Years Eve in front of the museum.

"Sally Newman" <scnewman@gmail.com> has been raising some concerns about the lawsuit, or atleast some questions. I still think it is a good move, but people can talk to her. (I will likely persue the lawsuit, but am trying to do as much media work as I can and am sched to leave Wed.)
