The assassination of the Iranina nuclear Scientist “Mohsen Fakhrizadeh” proves that there is no moral in politics. Iran, lately suffers from big losses since American killed general “ Qasem Solimani”. Unfortunately, the world has a double standard when it comes to developing nuclear weapons, we see Pakistan and North Korea for example own nuclear weapons while Iran is always deprived of this right.

Many factors play a fundamental role in the success of spiritual struggle and making it on the right path. We can contemplate it from the book of Joshua, chapter six, as Joshua was able to enter Jericho, the first city in the Promised Land, and triumph over the evil inherent in it. HG Bishop Pachomius, former acting Patriarch and Archbishop of Behirah, Matrouh and North Africa, in his article "The walls of Jericho and the spiritual struggle" explained to us several factors that help us in our spiritual struggle, first: to work hard, for the Lord commanded Joshua that the priests carry the Ark of the Covenant and circulate with the people around the city for six days, and the number six in the Bible symbolizes the perfection of life and the six days refer to our whole life, this life that needs hard working in order to triumph over evil just as Joshua triumphed over Jericho (which symbolizes evil) and without struggle we cannot be victorious. Secondly: Belief is in God s powerful hand. Jericho needed the help of God along with the hard work. So the Lord commanded Joshua that the people turn around the wall seven times, then they shouted, and with the power of the Lord the city walls have fallen. Third: Repentance and return to God. Jericho, with its king and its inhabitants, was a symbol of the sins and weaknesses that dominate human life, so we need to repent and return to God who helps us and gives us victory over the weaknesses facing our lives. Fourth: Continuing the spiritual struggle, the people marched around the walls once every day for six days with the priests carrying the Ark of the Covenant, and this indicates the seriousness of strife, continuation and lack of spiritual relaxation that God warns against in the Holy Bible. Fifth: Self-control, a person must control himself, as St. Paul said "I suppress my body and enslave him". Our seriousness in spiritual struggle must suppress the body and its desires. Strive and do not despair, whatever your weaknesses and sins are, trust that God helps and gives you victory over the battles of Satan, with seriousness, repentance, continuity, and faith in God s help, inevitably you will succeed in your spiritual struggle.

Luke the physician, one of the seventy apostles, was a famous physician in Antioch and wrote the bible named after him. It is considered the third gospel and is known for being very rich in details. St. Luke was concerned with the history of the origin and growth of the Church with all its worship and traditions, and his Bible also mentioned the historical sequence of the revelation of the kingdom of God, and expressed the work of God with man. It talks about Jesus Christ and the salvation in a wonderful way. Likewise, his gospel has become a major reference in theology, history and apostolic tradition. He is called: the teacher, the physician, the painter, bearer of enlightened light, third evangelist, full of apostolic zeal, the virgin and martyr. He wrote his gospel in order to complete his mission and spread the correct evangelistic knowledge, and declared what was necessary to be revealed by the impetus of the Holy Spirit. Likewise, his writing of the Acts of the Apostles replete with Christian wisdom and correct teaching about the Holy Spirit. His gospel was called "the gospel of divine friendship" as it was called (the Ecumenical Gospel) as it represents the call of all humanity to the Savior and Friend of man. Some theological historians saw that St. Luke the Evangelist presented a history of salvation and promise, and that the plan of the Trinity would not be announced. His writing of the Book of Acts also complemented the Gospel. He revealed in his Gospel the depth of the work of salvation in the service of Christ, and revealed in the Book of Acts how the Church held on to the power of salvation from the hand of the Lord and took its power from the Holy Spirit. Luke the Evangelist, the first Christian historian, wrote a spiritually inspiring story about the emergence of the Church, which carried the strength and grandeur of the Christian beginning, and the cornerstone linking the books of the New Testament, "the Gospels and Acts", was characterized by meticulous examination of wounds that did not go beyond his observed eye as a physician and as a historian. . He had a strong friendship with Saint Paul, whom called him “the beloved physician” (Colossians 14: 4), as he called him to work with him. He was famous for his art as a painter, and the icon he painted for the Virgin, the Queen, the bearer of the Lord God, is his mark In Christian Iconography. He was martyred at the age of eighty-four, may his blessings be with us all, Amen.

The Egyptian short fictional film “Sixteen” has made several achievements for Egypt, which also bears the name “I am afraid to forget your face”. It has won the top prize at the Best Short Film at the Cannes Film Festival, becoming the first Egyptian film to win the coveted award. It also did the same three weeks ago at the Moscow Festival, and seized the best film and became eligible on April 25. Next to strongly nominate the Oscar for Best Foreign Short Film, to put Egypt for the first time also on the Oscars map, after twenty-five participation over the course of nearly sixty years, we did not even get a mention. The names of our films were repeated a lot in the festival without a real coronation, even the Youssef Shahine Award in 1997 was in the festival s golden jubilee, and was reaped for the entirety of his work on the occasion of the festival s fifties.

The debate on whether mixed marriage is permissible, especially between a Muslim woman and a Christian man. It is much greater than a pure relationship or attraction between a man and woman. The patriarchal perspective sees that a non-Christian is not entitled to have the honor of being above a Muslim woman (during sexual intercourse)! The matter has a dangerous cultural dimension with a great difference between them in culture, the heritage reference and the value perspective for both of them in various walks of life including marriage, love, sex, values, relationships, upbringing, and life. If the marriage between a Muslim and Christianity today has resulted in dire societal results, and most of it came after enforced disappearance of the Coptic women. The fact that marriage between people of the same religion has achieved a tremendous failure in several cases, what much more can be achieved in cases of mixed marriages! I blame our society for having many values against humanity ​​and civilization, and we are clearly the product of religious oppression that made us not ready for regular marriage, not to mention the mixed one.

After the actor “Mohamed Ramadan” appeared in a photo with Isralie audience in Dubai all writers and who call themselves knowing everything started to criticize this step and claiming that Ramadan will lose a lot of his audience because of this step. Unfortunately, in Egypt people likes to bury their head in the sand like ostrich, Emirates and Bahrain already started normal relation with Israel and people still questioning someone taking picture with Isreali.

Although my parents refused to allow me to join the Muslim Brotherhood group, my father used to deal with the matter rationally and calmly. I was surprised by his his cool reaction until I knew the reason, as he knew I was going to leave this group sooner or later. At the time my mother was trying to force me to move away from them in a violent confrontational way, even by preventing me from leaving the house, which I didn’t like at all. My father used to resort to persuasion by convincing me about the bad morals of leaders of the group, showing me that they are a group of hypocrites who use youth as fuel and tools to achieve their personal interests. Once, I was arguing with my mom when she asked him to intervene, but he said I know he will leave them sooner or later, but I hope he will be sound and safe when he does. I didn’t expect so, but my father was right and I left them knowing they are just a group of religion traders who don’t care about Islam or the homeland. May God have mercy on my father. It seems that he knew about me more than I knew about myself

In my personal library, I found a nice book by the father: George Shehata Qanawati, entitled: "Christianity and Arab Civilization”. It is a medium-sized book but of great usefulness, in which its writer made an effort to clarify the role of Arab Christians and their cooperation with their Muslim brothers in building the edifice of Arab civilization and raising its status. The book shows that Arab civilization is the fruit of the effort of both Muslims and Christians, and it is the pride of all those who speak Arabic. Father George Qanawati divided his book into two parts: The first section: in which he studied the historical, social and cultural framework of Christianity in the Arab countries from its inception until the Abbasid era. The second section: a study of the Christian personalities who left their mark on the pages of Arab civilization, including poets, doctors, pharmacists, historians, philosophers, and translators. The book mentioned that the veteran poets such as: Amr Ibn Kulthum, Antara Ibn Shaddad, Al Nabigha Al Zebiani, Al Asha, Umru` Al Qais, Hatim Al Taie, Tarfa Ibn Al Abd were Christians. The book states that Sawiris ibn al-Muqaffa is one of the first Copts in Egypt who used the Arabic language in speaking and writing as a substitute for the Coptic language, and he was famous throughout Egypt as a public speaker and writer whose Arabic is excellent.

Deputy Governor of Minya, Dr. Muhammad Mahmoud Abu Zeid, launched the Speaking Hands initiative to train officials of public service departments on sign language and how to deal with people with special needs effectively. This way, Minya Governorate in Upper Egypt became the first governorate of the Republic to adopt this initiative. This announcement came in the presence of Dr. Iman Al-Sharif, consultant of training and entrepreneurship in the governorate, and a number of senior officials in Minya. The Deputy Governor of Minya stressed the importance of the idea to support the public service department to develop its service for the Egyptian citizens. I love the idea that aim to raise the efficiency of the administrative department and helps in integration of people with special needs hoping to be followed by all governorates in Egypt.

President Trump is actually troubling American democracy by refusing to concede to Joe Biden. People were looking to the US as an example in democracy and transparency but it seems they are doubting this example in the moment. Trump is helping dictatorships around the world more than helping deomcratic countries as dictatorships are looking to the most historical democracy in the world and waiting to this moment that the US turns to be a dictatorship so they can say democracy is over around the world.

At its door, you stumble on a cracked road, as if you are in a village that was never introduced to civilization, but how the city that its name is associated with the Rosetta Stone, which deciphered Egypt s history and resolved the symbols of its Pharaonic language Everything you see out there tells you that it holds secrets, and you see a wonder as you delve a little further on its streets. Here are simple boats adjacent to luxury yachts, and tombs on a luxurious hill contemplating the beauty of the Nile and its name "Kom Al-Afrah", which translated "Hell of Happiness"! It is a country full of contradictions, even in its establishment on the west bank of the Nile, unlike all the ancient cities built by the pharaohs. It has many palm trees until it was called "the country of a million palm trees", and the Nile has strong ties with its people who worked in fishing for thousands of years. The first to call it this name "Rakhit" was the Pharaonic King Mina when he visited it on his journey to unify Upper and Lower Egypt. Over thousands of years, its people presented glories recorded proudly in history, as they were able to defeat the Hyksos and the English invasion, and its people invented the guerrilla war to defend it valiantly. You feel that its people are soldiers who carry in their hearts a unique mixture of kindness, courage and pride. Yes, I fell in love with this town at first sight and wished to tell the world about this ancient Egyptian city that carries hidden greatness that many people do not realize, and it deserves a prominent tourist place among the greatest cities of the world with its antiquities, beauty and great history.

Everyone was led by the American Masonic media that announced Biden s success in the presidential elections. This fatal mistake is not a protocol, as some have portrayed, since the results were not yet announced and has not been recognized by the losing party. Trump is not alone in that fight, but has many honest people within the American institutions supporting him. During the four years of his rule, he was able to purify many of those institutions and appoint a very large number of officials belonging to the American nationalism only. This came after he had multiple reports from many sources on how the elections were rigged. A watermark has been placed on the ballot paper that the Democratic Party did not know about and many honorable people, who followed Trump, were installed inside the committees without declaring their identity. All evident were handed over to the Constitutional Court. This was a great plan by a man who was thought to be a clown. We need to think about the declaration of Trump several months ago about a fraud to happen. Trump announced he won the elections and President Abudul Fattah al-Sisi was the first in the Middle East to congratulate him, at the time China was the first country to congratulate Biden. Corona vaccine appeared after announcing Biden s success and the visit of the British intelligence minister to Egypt in a unique visit and Trump s dismissal of the defense minister and Israeli silence and its refusal to congratulate Biden raise many questions in that account. I know that many people will not listen to the words of this post, but I ask everyone remember my words until January 20th. Now the water mark will expose the fraud of the elections. Let s wait and see what happenes next.

It is known that with every sunrise the world provides us with new facts on its growing and changing reality. Many of which is enough to shape the features of a new world that imposes itself on us, or at least is able to change many of our concepts and perceptions about things that we see as constants. The question here is: do we have a culture of effective confrontation and smooth and constructive interaction with such facts? Are we able to raise our cultural immunity at the collective level? We should understand that we are facing a set of challenges and a world of multiple value and scientific concepts, and we must open up objectively and raise the slogan "Yes we can", without being subjected to stiffening the joints of the movement under the pretext of preserving identity, heritage, values and assets. Only those countries that possess the cultural and intellectual immunity are capable of positive sorting and effective scientific dealing with new data, regardless of the degrees of difficulty arising from the disparities between the competing forces. Without a social and cultural identity, people are cut off from their social and cultural environments, and without a clear definition of the other. They cannot determine their social and cultural identities, and the thinker “Burhan Ghaliun” points out that “a group or individual cannot accomplish a project of any type or size without knowing itself and determining its location, role and legitimacy of its existence as a distinct group. We need to first have a better understanding of ourselves. Accordingly, I see that the current youth conferences have become one of the wonderful forms of confrontation that allow them to open up to the world of knowledge and the wonderful communication of our youth with the youth of the world and the exchange of visions and cultures. The participation of the youth of more than 100 countries in the World Youth Forum expresses the ability of the Egyptian state and the political leadership to contain and nurture youth. Their ideas, given the substantive weight of the forum s agenda, in addition to discussing issues that occupy public opinion, whether at the local or international level. Yes, politics is the art of possible, but it is also the creativity of dreamers with better societies. This is because the politician is the one who offers a solution, and his role is not to present deferred problems in the form of solutions.

It was amazing to hear Egypt s Minister of Environment, Dr. Yasmine Fouad, saying that converting rice straw into fertilizer and fodder resulted in saving one billion pounds and provided 26,000 direct and indirect job opportunities for workers for a period of two and a half months. This system helped reducing the pollutants that caused the emergence of the black clouds each year from August to November as a result of farmers burning rice straw in the fields instead of collecting and recycling them. I was glad to know that the system developed and implemented by the ministry of Environment led to the prevention of about 27 thousand tons of pollutants. Greetings to the Ministry of Environment and to those who responded to its new system hoping that this great project will continue.

This time the democrat candidate won the american election not by much in the popular vote but by much in the electoral vote. There is no donut and regardless if Trump will challenge this result now or not, we will see in the next coming days very interestings actions from both parties and how America will face this dilemma for the first time in its history between a winning president and a president refusing to concede.

This sad, abusive picture that represents the main character of the movie The Nun holding an upside down cross as if she is participating in the rituals of the Devil worshipers, was not taken in France that considers insulting religious symbols as freedom, nor in America the land of Halloween. Rather, it was taken in Egypt, which usually affirms its rejection of insulting religions and their symbols, and calls other countries to do the same! In the city of Alexandria, the management of a store decided to celebrate Halloween in its American version several days ago by insulting the religious symbols of the Copts. This comes while Egyptian Christians are racing to declare their solidarity with their Muslim brothers against insulting their religion and religious symbols on the occasion of the publication of offensive cartoons in France. I want to make it clear that celebrating Halloween has never been part of Egyptian culture, but all Egyptians know the cross as a religious symbol for Christians. Whether it was an unpleasant joke, a search for cheap fame, or even an attempt to repay an insult, the whole thing was a clear mistake that reflects bad thought and management. It may even grant a license to insulting religious symbols, in accordance with the principle of freedom of expression, which is exactly what French magazines do when mocking Christian and Islamic sanctities alike.

There are several characters in the Holy Bible who were only human with special characteristics and traits that successive generations can learn from in order to acquire their virtues and walk in their successful ways. His Holiness Pope Tawadros II, in his article "Professor, Student and Colleague," told us about three figures from the Bible who appeared at the beginning of the Christian Church in the first century, the first of which is Gamaliel who was a great teacher of the law in the Jewish history, and he was one of Professors of the Apostle Paul in the study of Jewish law. He was the first person from the Jews to demand the lifting of restrictions on the messengers of Christ and to stop their persecution assuring their work will only succeed if supported by God adding that resisting the will of God is evil. He was a scholar of law, and had the courage to declare his opinion and express himself, the courage characterized by wisdom and without haste or recklessness, which is a quality that every person needs to gain the respect of everyone and be honest with himself and not fall into the sins of recklessness and haste. The second disciple, Saul of Tarsus or Paul the Apostle, who was known with jealousy and enthusiasm for his Judaism and persecuted Christians relentlessly and drove them mercilessly from Jerusalem and outside. He threw many of them into prison in increasing numbers., but God opened his heart before the love and mercy of Christ, so he transformed and changed, and Paul the Apostle gained new life and insight, and became one of the pillars of preaching the name of the Lord Jesus in the whole world. We learn from him that God wants everyone to be saved, for He accepts sinners and creates in them a new heart full of His love. The third disciple: Barnabas, a classmate with Paul the Apostle, would have had the greatest merit in introducing the Apostle Paul to the rest of the disciples if he extended his hand to Paul to encourage him and include him among the disciples as they were suspicious of him. The second is for the Apostle Paul, when he insisted that Mark be given a second opportunity to encourage him at a time when Paul objected to accompanying him, Barnabas did not look at the person in terms of his past and his negatives, but rather how the grace and mercy of God could work and use man to be successful and effective, he did not look back. Let us learn from these personalities and renew our lives acquiring such beautiful qualities ...

The North Sinai Governorate began developing the path of the Holy Family, in the Farma area, Balouza village, Bir al-Abd center, due to its historical importance as one of the Holy Family s passage points during its trip to Egypt. The governorate participates in the national project to revive the path of the Holy Family, and its path is considered the longest route in one country, with a length of 3,500 kilometers, back and forth, in the journey that took 47 months. This development comes with improving the efficiency of the infrastructure, paving the road leading to it, lighting it, planting it, connecting a line for fresh water to it, establishing guide panels and umbrellas for visitors to rest, improving the level of services, building a wall surrounding the archaeological sites, establishing a museum and a center for traditional crafts, including the work of embroidering the Bedouin dress and traditional carpet, the leaf products of palm fronds, the manufacture of pastries, drying of dates, sea snails, and olive oil products. We have to mention here the Rafah Church, which was destroyed by terrorism, and should be rebuilt as a distinctive sign of the path of the Holy Family, and the entrance to the family on the eastern borders of Egypt. Greetings to those in charge of the project in all its stages, especially with regard to North Sinai Governorate, which has been subjected to injustice and neglect by previous regimes and has been targeted and manipulated by terrorists.

The common people repeat many slogans of political Islam in a superficial, emotional manner, unaware of the meanings. One of these slogans that the masses repeat without awareness of its results is “The nationality of a Muslim is his religion” and “whenever the name of God is mentioned in a country, it is considered part of the homeland”. Many of them introduces himself as a (Muslim born in Egypt), since Egypt or any country is a land of religion. Many ordinary people proceed behind this saying, believing that this is just a romantic emotional affiliation closer to symbolism than to the truth on which positions and opinions are based. However, this inner feeling that does not cost its owner any effort is believed to be rewarded by God for it, even without any effort. People didn t understand the former guide of the Muslim Brotherhood who said that he doesn t care about Egypt and that a Malaysian Muslim president to Egypt is more accepted than an Egyptian Christian. Such ideology doesn t care about country and its development rather than supporting the Islamic Caliphate. Here, the meanings of great betrayal becomes uncertain, vague and unclear to the person. Here, intelligence agencies can use ideological affiliation or religion next to their classic tools of money and sex to recruit new agents. I can t imagine strangers running for presidential elections only because of their ideological affiliation. In that farce, we can see Malaysian, Italian, Israeli, Iranian and Turkish nominate for the presidency of Egypt, while Egyptians are not allowed to run only because of their religion! In that imaginary country, spying for Iran, Saudi Arabia and Turkey is not act of treason, but jihad to be rewarded in heaven.

Terrorists keep attacking churches, Journalists and teachers in France and Arab countries still condemn the victim, not the doer or the values behind these attacks. Unfrotunatelly, Arab and Muslim countries keep feeding their peole with ideas to hate others who are different in belifs and culture and that results in such big indecent that kill innocent people who have different culture.
