I now read every day about the argument by the Al-Nour party, and also add to that, the clashes between the Minister of Culture and the Salafist. All of this pushes me to focus today about those exact events. If we go back to the revolution of June 30th, we can see that the Al-Nour party was a part of the political process at that time. We all remember the most famous picture at this time of the gathering between Pope Tawadros, the Grand Sheikh of Al-Azhar, and the Salafist leader Remembering that day will lead us to understand why the State and the Ex-Defense Minister decided to contain the Salafists and put them in the political scene. I believe the Ex- Defense Minister was very smart to include the Salafists because at that time he wanted to show the world that the political power was included in the political environment and they were not excluded.
In an interview with Al-Jazeera satellite TV, Recep Tayyip Erdogan said that Turkey harbors two million Syrian refugees, while Europe harbors only eight hundred thousand refugees. However, he did not tell us how they live in Turkey and why many of them would rather die in their way to Europe than staying at Turkey! Many of them also preferred Egypt to Turkey though it’s very far. He also said that he was surprised by what Russia is doing in Syria; especially that Russia has no common borders with Syria. He may realize that neither America nor France that wage wars against ISIS have common boarders with Syria, except Jordan. How come he said nothing about them as well?
Since Sadat took office in 1970, he was actively seeking to take Egypt away from the Eastern bloc led by the Soviet Union to follow the policies of the United States of America. He was also said to have contacts with the American inelegance since the early sixties. Sadat used to say that 99% of the solution to the Arab-Israeli conflict is in the hands of America, which is not true as Israel is an independent state. Israel needs America and vice versa. The relationship between them is based on equality. The relationship between Egypt and Russia in the era of Nasser was excellent based on friendship and cooperation. The Russians are eastern people who love Egypt very much. They helped Egypt a lot in the military and industrial areas as well as in the building of the High Dam.
Saudi regime is repeating the calls to jihad that were heard in Afghanistan from 1979 to 1989. It presented 52 Saudi scholars in Syria to incite against the Red Army according to Arabia news website. Russians are not stupid and should have known that their military intervention in Syria against IS would annoy the Saudi regime and push it to call for jihad against Russia just like it did in Afghanistan. Russia must know that the world will have no peace before destroying the terrorist organizations supported by the Saudi regime, and also destroying the entire terrorist regime.
Several policies have changed between February 2014 and August 2015 in the Middle East. The American Zionist plan named (the Arab Spring) was implemented in several Arab countries including Syria, Iraq, Yemen and Tunisia. However, this evil plan was broken in Egypt. In February 2014, Field Marshal Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, Egyptian Defense Minister and Commander in Chief of the Egyptian Armed Forces, visited Russia for the first time. Later, Russia supported the Egyptian revolution of June 30. The two great leaders met together and discussed the situation at the Middle East. They discussed all evil plans against the two leading countries.
I have already said it in previous occasions I’m just a guy like you not having access to top military or political secrets I just an observer like you I read news I think and ask questions no one would answer them I analyse events and write down my views right or wrong the future might answer or we might never find out where the truth lies! I do have the feeling we are already in a World War Three or WW III over the Syrian crisis. At the beginning of the Syrian and non Syrian immigrants flow to Europe I admired France stance and their desire to solve the Syrian problem once and for all not by just giving asylum to the refugees but stepping into the battle field if necessary and with optimistic hope I saw Germany’s reaction asking all involved parties to step out in a conference to solve this problem then I felt deep deep disappointment when the president of France said it loud and clear he can not allow Bashar El Assad participation in any political discussions since -from his point of view- he is the source of that problem!
In my last article I spoke about the parliamentary elections. I had mentioned that ex NDP members and the Al-Nour party will mostly compose the next parliament. Today, however, I want to talk about the position of the Copts in the next parliamentary elections. I believe that after 2 revolutions, nothing has changed regarding the Copts. Meaning, these 2 revolutions have not resulted in a push for Egyptians to vote for a Coptic man rather than a Muslim. You may be curious and ask me why I am pessimistic about the future of the Copts in parliament.
The Egyptian idiom says: "chose the neighbor before the house". President Abdul Fatah al-Sisi told President Mahmoud Abbas Abu Mazen that the PLO should be responsible for the Gaza Strip, because the current situation is not pleasing at all to Egypt. The current neighbor is taking advantage from the tunnels, and is indeed a traitor to the Arab cause. The Sudan belongs to the Muslim Brotherhood, but Egypt supports Libya in order to restore Libya! Concerning the Palestinian neighbor, Egypt knows that legitimacy is indeed with Abu Mazen and the PLO. In this situation, the house can’t be changed, but the neighbor can be.
On October 6, 1981, former President Sadat was assassinated in the memory of the victory of October 1973. Anwar Sadat is indeed one of the most controversial presidents in Egypt. His life and death involved a great deal of ambiguity and contradiction. His assassination operation was very successful that you may think international organizations were behind his death. His policies moved Egypt from socialism to capitalism. He also moved Egypt from subordination of the Soviet Union to the absolute loyalty to America.
The current Russian-Iranian-Syrian-Iraqi alliance aims not only to fight IS in Iraq and Syria, but also to push it towards the border of the Saudi Arabia and supporting it against the Saudi Kingdom. Russia has never forgot what Saudi Arabia did in Afghanistan in the reigns of Kings Khaled and Fahd when the Saudi Arabia offered the jihadists advanced weapons including "stinger" and shipped terrorists from all over the world to fight the Red Army. Those jihadists joined armies of ISIS later.
For the second time in less than four months, Salafis decided to embarrass President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi before the whole world by attacking the Copts. This came few hours before his visit to the US. They attacked Copts of Ameriya in Alexandria at the time Copts in America are getting prepared for the visit of the president and to support him during his speech to the UN. This way, they gave the answer for potential questions about supporting the Salafis by the president and his intention not to dissolve religious based parties.
When I was 10 years old I stepped my first ever time in to a school; do not judge me so fast, I was a child with special needs, and thanks God, he offered my a couple of parents who provided me those special needs! As a child I had a motion disability having suffered the well known disease (Polio). Who’s fault it was getting the disease in spite I was vaccinated on time, this is not my subject, bottom line is I was not -and still- able to walk like normal people, and once again thanks to my parents attention, I was not left paralysed on a bed till death, but they took upon themselves full responsibility to treat me and provide me with all special needs a paralysed child might need including my education and learning. Because when I was a child like any child my powers were limited add to it my paralysis (90-95% of my muscles were paralysed) I would never be able to walk with or without any walking aids, all walking aids need a lot of personal powers like the power to stand on your own -or artificial legs- using walking sticks still needs lot of power in your arms to support your body, and even with the necessary power you still need lots of training to become stronger, and again I say to R.I.P. My Mother thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the troubles you had being my trainer, my therapist on top of your duties as a mother of 3 children and a house wife. This does no mean that R.I.P my father did not help or remained idle, enough the financial and physical troubles he had taking me as a less than 2 years old paralysed child to Paris to get some real Medical attention when Egyptian doctors failed to provide true attention due to ignorance or incompetent!
While we are close to the parliament elections, we need to shed light on the importance of this upcoming election. There is no doubt that the ex-members of the NDP will try to get back into the political life. Also, we should confess that the businessmen will also try to be involved in this election at least to protect their interest in the next coming years.
Wahhabi countries called Israel "the Zionist state" and called the western countries "infidels". It’s known that Wahhabism and Zionism are different, but they united against Christianity. Christ was crucified in Israel and Christians are cursed on daily basis in Wahhabi countries in addition to punishing those who perform Christian prayers on its land.
We, the Egyptians, should respect disagreements and never let them lead them to hatred and accusing one another. I don’t agree with the president who said that the constitution was written with good intentions, but they are not able to build nations. I wonder how come he took an oath to respect such constitution that has no ability to build the nation!
The current financial situation in the churches is wrong. I’m not exaggerating as many people may think. I decided to shed the light on wrong habits by our spiritual leaders that affect the church very bad, especially as they don’t accept council of the Coptic expert and just ignore them.
Terrorists don’t have to carry bombs and weapons, as some extremists may hold pens that kill innocent people and defame their reputation. As soon as the final committee that investigated the papers of Mariam Malak, the famous zero student, decided that the papers belong to Mariam, several people started to attack the poor girl. They accused her of forging the story and others said she suffered from mental illness after her father died. Moreover, others accused her of being supported by foreign organizations. Wahid Hamed, writer, said she should stand trial as soon as possible for making up the story. All of them forgot about corruption that spread all over Egypt. It’s known that several ministers in Egypt start stealing as soon as they take office. There was a revolution in Egypt against corruption in the government. They act like they think Mariam was bad as she hold onto
The time does not wait for any one it is going on and on the earth keeps turning around the sun and our solar system and so on, time does not wait on us because we are sad or happy it would not even wait for us because we are not part of this living world but our acts will hunt us in history until we meet our final judgement by the most just judge!
I firmly believe that all great things come from a balance of constructive criticism and positive reinforcement. A lack of balance will put anything and anyone at risk of not developing their full potential, and stunt any type of hopeful growth. If I am someone who is trying my best to achieve a dream, or achieve growth, or achieve change, it only makes sense that positivity will encourage me to move forward, and negative criticism will most likely cause me to give up. Constructive criticism is beneficial when given in small amounts. I mean to say, for every 1 negative thought put forward, 2 positive thoughts should also be put forward to balance out. Consider a small child. Or even someone in secondary school. Constant words like "you are doing this wrong" "I can't believe you don't know this" "look at how badly you did this" "you are not smart" "you are not taking anything seriously"will really damage a person.
Dr. Mustafa Mahmoud, the Egyptian scientist, 1presented a TV show under the title “science and faith" in which he objectively presented the right scientific information. However, years after the show was closed, our media is specialized currently in presenting several myths and superstitions instead of science. Few days ago, Tamer Amin, Egyptian anchor, presented in a program aired on Saudi Channel talked about "Supreme Council of the World".
I am very optimistic that the situation in Egypt is getting more stable. This is crystal clear comparing to the situation in 2013. Such optimism is indeed supported by the Egyptian state waging war against corruptionز The new government comes with the election of a new parliament after the revolution of June 30. 90 million Egyptians are waiting for this hoping for better future for their children. However, several challenges are facing our country, and people are expecting more security and better standards of living.
