On a personal note, many Egyptian comrades constantly tell me how far more impressive the chants in Syria are compared to those in Egypt. Here is a video of the protest that I uploaded to this blog, incidentally one of my Egyptian friends had told me how much he loved Syria's chants on that very day. Here is another link, this one to the first anti-regime protest I had ever attended. Wait till the kid steps down and listen to the guy who picks up the microphone next, he was simply marvellous. To call these chants uninspiring or disappointing is grossly unfair.
