angriest student newspaper editorial I’ve ever seen

February 8, 2012

The editorial was written by a personal friend of the late Omar Aly Mohsen, openly stating a specific conspiracy theory, and also openly calling on a mob to march from Tahrir to certain prisons and hospitals to wreak vengeance on three closely related people the author holds responsible for orchestrating the Port Said attacks from their jail cells (and hospital bed). That was one enraged editorial writer. “Now it’s personal…” was the subtitle.

Whether or not that particular conspiracy theory sounds too extreme, it has earned widespread belief.
