It is also important to address a group of intellectuals for the anti - terrorism law, especially the second article which defines terrorism broad definition loosely can accommodate any criticism or expression of opinion, and criminalizes the right strike and sit -in , and is used verbally and phrases undisciplined can be interpreted in many interpretations may not frequented by the legislature, as well as Articles 28 and 29 of that Act Almtardtan with Article 70 of theConstitution, the sixth imposed punishment for incitement to commit a terrorist crime the same penalty for the offense full article ".. If not the consequences of this incitement impact" or had not located the crime, and Article VIII , which provides protection for police accountability for the perpetrators of crimes of violence is unjustified and down to be killed outside the law, if the policeman as much as it necessary for protection from imminent danger, according to the appreciation is, as well as Article 43 , which deprives the accused of some justice guarantees when it prevents the public prosecutor as well as the terms of reference assigned toit, assessments for the judge authorities investigated and those planned for the court resumed misdemeanors held in counseling room. If we move to the economic and social issues and to achieve "social justice , " we find that the required again abide by the constitution, has identified constitution in articles 8, 9.12, 13.14, 17.18, 19.27, 38.42, 78.79 required to achieve social justice procedures. the starting point issuing an iron law of taxation in line with Article 38 of the Constitution , especially the third paragraph , which states that "takes into account the taxation to be multiple sources, and be a tax on individual incomes upward renewed slide according to their abilities Altklevah, tax system and ensure the promotion of labor - intensive economic activities, and stimulating role in the economic, social and cultural development." He suggested that the theupper limit of tax upward be 45% and begin the implementation of a tax on capital gains in the stock market, which had been frozen subject to the pressures of capitalist parasites law, they are sector mostly in theEgyptian capital. these proposals are just making the required 24 intellectuals who met with the president and program they have to join them Andzoh in less than a month.
