This is purported to be two million people in Egypt chanting: “WE GO TO JERUSALEM, MARTYRS IN THE MILLIONS”
If that is accurate, and this is a real event, I would like to add that text to the video in English and reupload it.
"Objects in history may be closer than they appear" – Eeyore for Vlad
It is definitely a live shot from Tahrir square in Cairo – it says this in arabic.
As best I can tell, they are not saying jerusalem – perhaps ‘ palestin’ but my arabic is very poor.
One word: Napalm
I’ll post it at IBA. I believe we have a few readers who speak Arabic.
I have asked a friend who’s an Egyptian Copt
Sounds like “Al-mawt li israil” (death to Israel).
But the audio quality is not very good, so maybe I’m wrong.
No VonStierlitz you aren’t wrong.
Just had an email from my Egyptian friend, who said
Quote: ” I can not make out what they are saying”
Sorry Vlad

I can hardly make out “Allah al Karim”, but I’m still not sure. I hear Israel (or Isra-eel, as they say it in Arabic) but I would be lying if I could say anything for sure.
I am working on translating the ticker text that people are texting in. I will post it here as a comment once I am done.
I can tell you that the first one says: “Oh God, Victory of Nasreddin”. Nasreddin can mean “helper of the faith” or just a name. I am not really sure what the text means.
Anyway, I am working on them all and will post the translation as best as I can and will also, in the meantime, ask an Egyptian friend of mine to help me with the translation.

Alright, don’t hold me to it but I have been listening to the chanting over and over and this is what it sounds like:
“Al Mawt Al Israil–Wallah el Kerim” — “The Death of Israel–Allah is Holy”
I might be completely off though.
Whoa, crazy video!
I posted this on the Geert Wilders PVV site and they have someone in the Australian admin that could help out.
Geert Wilders – PVV ?[Spanish Admin] Our Australian Admin speaks arabic.
The following is the translation my friend has sent me. He is Egyptian and understands the dialect better:
Congratulations people of egypt
My darling Palestine, your the inspiration to all for freedom
this is the generation of the people
long live the crescent with the cross
we were waiting for arab unity, we now have an arab awakening
we pray that this revival would be an islamic one
yes to revolutions that shakes the corrupt
Allah give victory to nations if they revolut for truth
Now I finally understand the saying that Egypt is the mother of nations
Martyrs but strong people
stones will fall one by one ( I think it says stone, could be something like bad politicians)
till when will there be injustice O rulers of the arabs
The success in freeing egypt and tunisia is one step closer to freeing palestine
Allah protect the gulf from every evil and protect its rulers
congratulations on the historic victory people of egypt
O people of egypt, refuse any help from outsiders (America) its just bait
I love you my country
the wind of freedom has crossed the arab nations
Allah grant victory to the righteous and smite the wicked
Pastorius
My Egyptian friend wasn’t able to. !!!
Maybe he can do me a favour then please
This is an abominable video of a Hiz-but Tarih rally in Sydney
Judging by its contents I’d say the guy speaking Arabic is likely to be just as inflammatory.
It’s about the last 2/3

You can post it here, or ask Vlad for my address..many thinks
I’ll see what he says.
🙂
Thanks, probably no good as I just recieved a reply from my friend, who said
“…dialect of lebanese, I dont understand. he mentions a lot of countries by name and says islam is present every where ”
I wonder if Brigitte Gabriel will help?
Might give it a try.
