Is the answer still Tunisia? Different reactions in Egypt to the events in Tunisia

Cairo -

“The answer is Tunisia,” thus the Egyptians have always praised the success of the Tunisian people in managing their revolution, and they see it as the best model for the Arab Spring after its success in neutralizing the army and confronting the deep state, even if it did not succeed in eliminating it completely, but the position of the Egyptian street differed in the wake of The events in Tunisia in the last hours.

The decisions of Tunisian President Qais Saeed - which were issued at dawn today, Monday, in which he announced his control of all authorities, freezing the work of Parliament, lifting the immunity of all his deputies, as well as relieving Prime Minister Hisham Al-Mashishi - sparked a division in the Egyptian reactions between supporters and opponents.

“The answer is no longer Tunisia.”

“The answer is no longer Tunisia”;

Thus, one of the pioneers of the Twitter site wrote for short tweets, commenting on what is happening in Tunisia, amid a split among the pioneers of social networking sites in Egypt over the description of what Qais Saeed, who with Tunisia, made the trend of Twitter in Egypt.

A group of social media pioneers saw that what the Tunisian president did was a coup against the Tunisian revolution, almost identical to what happened in Egypt in 2014, and he shares with him the tools, goals, and perhaps the instigator and supporter.

Egyptian activists and politicians called on the Tunisian people to confront the coup with full force and not to repeat the mistakes of the Egyptian revolution, and to benefit from the Turkish model in the face of the failed coup attempt on July 15, 2016.

Tunisia is no longer the answer.

Tunisia is following in the footsteps of Egypt. The

green Tunisia will become barren if its people do not wake up. For

you, O peoples who are defeated by

God, God is the best

Professor of constitutional law #Qais_Said leads a coup against the constitution, like any military thug!

The Speaker of the House of Representatives and popularly elected representatives are prevented from entering Parliament, in a clear indication of contempt for the people!

Everyone has always chanted “The answer is #Tunisia”, were we living in an illusion, or will the Tunisian people convince us of the reality and seriousness of this saying?

And they woke us up to the fourth #UAE coup in the region: Egypt 2013, Libya 2015, Turkey 2016, Tunisia 2021. It failed twice and succeeded once. Will it succeed for the second time?

This depends on the presence of a Tunisian revolutionary leadership that fights with honor and intelligence to the end and never gives up #Tunisia_coup

If the Tunisian coup succeeds against its weakness, then the nation should turn the page on political Islam forever!

He will be a traitor to his religion, a traitor to his nation, and a traitor to all great human values, whoever puts him in a useful political sentence!

These people are living in order to repeat their mistake!

Important The

Prime Minister of #Tunisia has been detained since this afternoon, note Article 80 stipulates that in order to activate it, Parliament remains in session, not freezing.. What #Qais_Said did tonight is a coup that was planned and financed from abroad by repeating the scenario of the coup #Egypt 2013.. The crowds in the streets are now fake and security Divide opponents of the coup

Which helps the people of #Tunisia to thwart the coup of #Qais_Said. The presence of close models for dealing with coups can be limited to the ongoing #Sisi coup, and the failed coup of Turkey, and the people came out in both cases, but in Turkey the leaders were at the forefront and according to the event, and the people came out to defend His right to force, not just chants.

On the other hand, another group saw what happened as an extension of Egypt's success in eliminating the Muslim Brotherhood, praising the Tunisian president and his success in purging the country from the last strongholds of the Brotherhood, and calling on the Tunisian people to stand behind the president in all his decisions.

Oh God, protect #Tunisia and its people, and be with them, Lord of the worlds.

Peoples when they see the result of the experience of removing the religion merchants from power in Egypt in terms of reconstruction, projects and stability.

Sooner or later, the experience will be replicated... Tunisia is now and I hope the Lebanese will ride the gang of Hassan Nasrallah the impalement soon... We have remained an icon for the peoples of the region.

The last days of the Brotherhood in Tunisia,

popular protests in all provinces to demand the overthrow of the ruling system, the dissolution of parliament and the removal of the Brotherhood from power. The protests reached the burning of the headquarters of the Renaissance after 10 lean years of their rule

Media disparity

The contrast and division in the opinion of the Egyptians was not only in the social networking sites, but the media witnessed a similar division. While the media close to the Egyptian regime supported what the Tunisian president did, the Egyptian opposition media rejected the decisions and described them as a coup.

The Egyptian government and semi-governmental media celebrated the decisions of the Tunisian president, and considered them a victory for the Tunisian people over the Brotherhood, as they described it. They were also keen to convey the celebrations of the Tunisian president’s supporters, and the statements supporting him, especially the statement of the “Tunisian Rebellion” movement, and praising the role of the Tunisian army supporting the president. .

On the other hand, the Egyptian opposition channels - which are based in Istanbul - described the Tunisian president's decisions as a coup against the revolution, and warned against repeating the Egyptian scenario, and called on the Tunisian people to stand against the coup, and were keen to convey the opinions of opponents of the Tunisian president's decisions.
