    Moustafa Bayoumi

    The president is escalating the situation to justify greater force and repression. Now he's talking about sending 'troops everywhere'

    Yeah well if we're going to be an autocracy we may as well be a police

    getting ready to do Swan Lake on his doorstep.

    He knows for a fact the media will cover everything he wants them to.
