I can’t say an exact figure, but tens of thousands turned out for today’s protest, more than beating my expectations – more than that, it was a very militant protest, comparable to the response to the invasion of Lebanon. I am quite sure that the police are putting an insultingly low figure on the turnout for the media’s consumption, but they ought to bear in mind that, apparently, policemen are no longer civilians.
