( Shaarawi Ali and Abdul Aziz Fahmi ) to comply with the British High Commission , demanding independence , were followed by the corresponding author Egyptian delegation , and the movement of the collection of the famous brands to emphasize that delegation representing the Egyptian people in search of freedom

In 1919 the Egyptian people come out in the streets and squares to demand independence and liberty

revolution coming

Delegation of students to travel to participate in reconciliation, to open the Egyptian demands for independence, and the delegation was with this requirement , and the sectors of sympathy popularity of this movement
the British authorities to stop Saad Zaghloul and three members of the delegation are Basel Hamad Mohammed Ismail Mahmoud Sidky and deported to Malta March 8, 1919

Egyptian women in 1919 participated next to the man demands freedom and independence

The day after the arrest of Saad Zaghloul and the members of the delegation , students lit the spark protests in Cairo. In two days, the extent of the protests have spread to all students , including students Azhar revolution . A few days after the revolution broke out in all parts of the cities and towns coming revolution

In Cairo, the workers went on strike demanding better wages trams and less hours of work and facilitate the sanctions list and get a reward at the end of the service and other requirements. The authorities were unable to utilize older workers to service , was paralyzed tram complete paralysis

Egyptian women in 1919 participated next to the man demands freedom and independence

Followed by the railway strike , which occurred after the British authorities deal soldiers Porsche Bulak training students to replace Egyptian workers on strike , precipitating the decision of workers to participate in the events . Not just say the strike , but destroy adapters designed trains and rail lines cut - they had the peasants and became the most important weapon of the revolution

Taxi drivers on strike, postal workers , electricity and customs all of them want revolution Followed by the press to strike of workers and the labels of workers and public workshops and the Customs Department in Alexandria

There is a close relationship between the notable participation of workers in the movement between the demands of unions in many cases , the strike , which occurred for example , in the case of a streetcar workers strike Alexandria and Customs Department and E, where revolution previously raise these workers strike demanding higher wages and better working conditions

Urban protests did not stop the protests and strikes, but the people in the slums of trenching to deal with the British forces and the police and the mob attacked shops and foreign goods and the destruction of tram vehicles

The movement was not the least of which regions of Cairo and Alexandria revolution but it was more intense and violent . Groups of farmers Faqamt cut rail lines in the cities and villages of Upper and Lower Egypt , and the police attack on the cities and sent no one in doubt trying to stand up for them. In Hawamdeya a group of peasants attacked the railway line leading to the sugar refinery that resulted in a call to go to work and a workers' strike . In Qalyub has thousands of peasants to destroy the railway line

In the tenderness and Wasty in Upper Egypt , peasant groups attacked railway lines , looting and the train station of burning and attacked the British soldiers. In Minya agar wheat to neighboring towns police station and released the prisoners. In Damanhur people to demonstrate and dress shoes hit their head and almost killed when insults

In Fayoum nomads attacked troops and police forces when these forces attacked protesters . In Assiut residents attacked the police station and the seizure of weapons failed bombing Btaúratin city forcing them to retreat . In the village of Deir Mawas near Assiut , farmers attacked a train of British soldiers and fierce fighting took place between the two parties

When the British sent a warship Assiut , hundreds of farmers have abandoned the old Nile armed with guns to take over the ship . In some villages , the poor peasants attacked and looted the property superior Angel , who enters the terror in the heart of it. You do not have the space here to list details, but we can say that the above is just a few examples of what has made the masses during the revolution. But the importance of these examples is refuting claims that Egyptians are predominantly those calls and reporting and provide leadership in all ages

The reaction of the British forces violently to the extent it can be said that what was done by these forces and police against the Egyptians during the revolution , the most serious acts of violence that struck the Egyptians in modern history . From the early days , British troops were the first to sign the martyrs among students during peaceful demonstrations in the beginning of the revolution . Following the publication of the railway lines cut, revolution ,the authorities have issued threats to carry data to contribute and burned villages adjacent lines are cut . Many have been trained by military tribunals for trial participants of the revolution

Security forces have not hesitated to victims sometimes indistinguishable from the killings , as happened when I was in Fayoum four Bedouin killed in a single day at the hands of British troops and Egyptian police forces . British forces did not hesitate to carry out his threats against the people , as happened in the villages of Al Azizia , Badrasheen , networks, etc. , which burnt and looted the property of these people were killed peasants and farmers of the skin and raped several women in revolution

Revolution 1919 unit fell in April , revolution following a decision of the British authorities to release the members of the delegation and let them go at the request of Egypt to the peace conference After the publication of this resolution , which came to Talia week of mass violence by the authorities against the population began to slowly disappear events and delegation went to France to attend the conference , which was recognized parties controlling interest in it , especially in the United States represented at the President Wilson , a British protected in Egypt which has a heavy blow to the approach to the negotiations. But that has not prevented the delegation of fruitless negotiations continue for many years revolution

The popular revolution forced the British occupation , on the release of Saad and his companions. The delegation went to Versailles, but the conference did not address the issue of Egypt . The Egyptian delegation returned and became the nucleus of a new party. He then won the parliamentary elections held in Saad most seats in parliamentary and ministerial candidates Saad form, which is the first department in popularity in Egypt

The revolution of 1919 was the only time that the popular movement , including the country and participated in all layers were unanimous in an application, is independence. In this context , it has become common among the few who are interested in a revolution in 1919 to the popular consensus on the national question is justified to create a perception revolution has not only seen a popular uprising for national claims and disposable class links between them and the revolution poverty and deprivation that was created by four years of war , but ignore the importance of the mass movement from below , revealing divisions within the armed forces to participate in the revolution
