Show of support to Sharm victims
From Digressing, initiated by Africano:
Starting Thursday noon, July 28, 2005.
In the garden of ElSawy Culture Center: Leave a flower, light a candle, write a statement, read a verse, put a picture, draw a painting, join us in expressing the feelings of sadness over the victims of the terrorists blasts, and in expressing your opinions on facing terrorism.
The idea is based on organizing a public reaction in a calm artistic manner like what happened after the London and Madrid bombings.
A small corner where each one can express their support with the victims, a paper with their names, candles, verses of the Quran or the Bible, sweet word, flower or a bunch of flowers, a sign, etc. The matter is left to each one's innovation.
There won't be a protest, nor a gathering, nor chants, nor signs against the regime. The objective is clear, and its a calm public rejection of terrorism which is everyone's enemy.
This will continue, God willing, for a few days. So if you can't make it on Thursday, you can go to the Sakia Culture Centre in any following day.

I think it's a great idea too.
Important to note, I am not involved in organizing this. I think Mohammed from Digressing is involved though and came up with this idea. Thanks for his efforts. I'm just broadcasting this in English here.
It really is a great idea! And I guess any kind of support should be appreciated, even just broadcasting the idea in English! So, Mo, if you go there, please take my virtual support with you! Thanks.
Good Stuff
Thanks for the info...
I commend you , Mohamed & Karim for the virtual Activism
Mo, Nice New Stamp ;)
