Rally Rage: 'Israeli Tahrir' gears up for protest of 150,000


Israel is bracing itself for a fresh wave of massive anti-government protests. Activists are planning a third weekend of rallies across the country. One Tel Aviv street has already been renamed by some as 'Israeli Tahrir', after the square where the Egypt uprising took place.
