PBS interview with Gameela



Gameela gives an interview at 08:55.

Text of interview:
Activist Gameela Ismail, co-founder of Women for Change, came to hear Zewail, but said the Tahrir Square die-hards have to keep up the pressure.

GAMEELA ISMAIL, Women for Change: And this is what I always tell the -- the people in the square when I'm there. I'm saying, listen guys, we are like in the last part of the long, dark tunnel, the very last part. It's either we keep on our strength and courage and pass this remaining part of the tunnel -- of the tunnel, or we're going to be stuck here for at least 10 years.

MARGARET WARNER: So, could this spin out of control?

GAMEELA ISMAIL: It is out of control. It's been -- it's been out of control for the last at least 10 days. It's been out of control. The masses, the people want Mubarak off the scene. This regime, having a military core, is never going to allow this to happen, the fall of the president by the pressures of the people.
