Egyptians Rally Ahead of Anniversary of Uprising Hundreds of Egyptians are marching toward Tahrir Square ahead of the one-year anniversary of the uprising that toppled longtime leader Hosni Mubarak. The protesters set out from different neighborhoods in Cairo on Friday, which they have dubbed "the dream of the martyrs." Protesters chant slogans at a rally honoring those killed in clashes with security forces in Tahrir Square in Cairo, Egypt, Friday, Jan. 20, 2012, nearly a year after the 18-day uprising that ousted President Hosni Mubarak. Activists are now trying to energize the public to demand that the ruling military step down. They say the families of hundreds of people killed during the uprising and the around 100 others that have been killed in clashes with the military rulers that took over from Mubarak have yet to get their "retribution." Activists organized the rallies as part of a week of "mourning and anger" around the Jan. 25 anniversary to muster support for their call to end military rule. They say the ruling generals have continued the policies of the toppled regime.
