The attacks against the masses who gathered on the squares in Egypt in
defiance of the military coup have turned into a massacre. Hundreds of
people who took to the squares against the fascist military coup are killed,
thousands are injured during the attack. And while these brutal attacks
continue with all its barbarism, state of emergency was declared in many
cities in Egypt.
As the deepening contradictions in Egypt are not being resolved, they have
put the country in a more complex situation. As is known, the people of
Egypt now more impoverishing and suffering from more repression have toppled
the Hosni Mubarak regime with the rebellion started two years ago. However
the spontaneous peoples uprising lacked revolutionary leadership and the
Egyptian army attempting to control the uprising, supervised the elections
and the Muhammed Mursi administration came to power. As it is its nature,
also this administration in its core continued the rule of the previous
administration. Upon this the masses have risen again.
Following this uprising the army was once more activated to prevent the
growing popular opposition to flow into a revolutionary stream. With this
aim, the coup on behalf of the Supreme Military Council was committed and
the leadership was seized. Muhammed Mursi was arrested on 3rd July. As a
result the narrow minded organization Muslim Brotherhood have lead the
masses within their influence spheres to demonstrations. The backward
segments in the government will use doctrines based on religion and
nationalism on the poor layers of the people for their own gain. In fact,
this is what the Muslim Brotherhood Movement (Muslim Brotherhood) is doing.
This coup in Egypt is not independent from the imperialists. In fact, the
coup by the Supreme Military Council was made with the directives of the US.
The current situation is clearly reflecting this. Following this the US
imperialist has not been able to conceal the support they have given the
coup in Egypt. Therefore the intervention was not even called a coup, and a
declaration that they will continue with the annual financial aid was
issued. Although the EU and US imperialists have condemned the juntas
attacks, massacring hundreds of people, this was merely to justify
themselves. Despite these condemnations the role they played in this
massacre cannot be camouflaged. On the contrary, they have played a
determining role in the coup and the massacre of the masses.
The Egyptian army committed a coup to protect the existing order, to
suppress the popular opposition and to restore its damaged position. The
opposing part of the population was brutally attacked and a savage massacre
was carried out. During these attacks hundreds were killed and thousands
were injured.
As ATIK we condemn this brutal massacre, extend our condolences to the
families of those deceased and wish those injured a speedy recovery. We call
upon the democratic public not to remain silent against this massacre and to
take a stand against this crime against humanity.
WE CONDEMN THE MASSACRE AGAINST THE PEOPLE IN EGYPT!
DOWN WITH THE FASCIST MILITARY COUP!
DOWN WITH IMPERIALISM AND REACTION OF ALL KINDS!
