And you are like a traitor, just like the President or any security cop who beats us in the streets. Your presence with us will make a difference, a big difference.

Talk to your neighbours, your colleagues, friends and family and tell them to come. They don't have to come to Tahrir Square, just go down anywhere and say it - that we are free human beings.

Sitting at home and just following us on news or Facebook leads to our humiliation, my own humiliation.

If you have honour and dignity as a man, come. Come and protect me and other girls in the protest. If you stay at home, then you deserve all that's being done to you.

And you will be guilty, before your nation and your people. And you'll be responsible for what happens to us on the street while you sit at home.

Go down to the street, send SMSes, post it on the Net... make people aware. You know your own social circle, your building, your family, your friends... tell them to come with us.

Bring five people, or ten people; if each of us manages to bring five or ten to Tahrir Square and talk to people and tell them, this is enough.

Instead of setting ourselves on fire, let us do something positive. It will make a difference, a big difference. Never say there's no hope.

Hope disappears only when you say there's no hope. So long (as) you come down with us, there will be hope.

Don't be afraid of the government, fear none but God. God says that He "will not change the condition of a people until they change what is in themselves' (Qur'an 13:11).

Don't think you can be safe anymore. None of us are. Come down with us and demand your rights, my rights, your family's rights.

I am going down on January 25th, and I will say "No" to corruption, "No" to this regime!
