For several hours, ex-minister of interior e.i police, secret service, national security in collaboration with the ministry of defence and secret services; I re-iterate that for several hours ex-minister of interior defended himself towards accusations he’s been in trail for 3 years so far, what attracted my attention was he spent this time telling secrets day by day of the events of January 25, 2011 revolution or what was named revolution. I’m not going to talk about this revolution or not, but the facts that are being slowly unfolded.
Last week’s article had exactly same title added to it “The” that is it was The Trial of the Century; I focused on two things which were: 1. False Accusations of police brutality and killing people upon the 25th January demands. 2. My own testimony confirming what Habib El Adly said about the false accusations was true. As on Wednesday 16th August 2014 the hearings of that trial ended with a memorial last speech -probably- from former president Mubarak that ignited lots of reactions I deem it necessary to answer some questions or remarks about it. Mubarak’s accusations Former president Mubarak was on trial from over 3 years accused of Killing people of Egypt in riot, using his powers for illegal earnings and wasting national income selling Gas to Israel under priced! So far, in the Egyptian criminal law there is no crime called “Corrupting Political Life” or any similar wording accusation or crime to be tried for!
First I owe you all an apology I interrupted my series of History to wish Egyptians and the rest of the world a happy feast at the end of the holly month Ramadan it is a Muslim occasion and I’m not Muslim, but we are all Egyptians and most important HUMANS! As a human I share sorrows and happiness with humans happy for their happiness and upset for their miseries this is how I interpret human rights! I had a message to sent to my co-citizens and the rest of the world but due to lots of obstacles on top of them power problems - and no power = no internet therefore I can not even send my semi finished article- therefore I just got the time to send two words wishing people a happy feast!
This article will be available on May 26th. The first day of presidential election most likely will read it afar you had voted or boycotted presidential elections but there would be a second chance the following day the very LAST DAY! I’m not writing this to tell you what to do or advise you to vote for a specific candidate this is against all human laws of freedom of opinion, freedom of choice, and above all your own personal freedom, however I see it necessary to tell Boycotters a few facts before too late. I understand, a lot of today’s youth and young people have never seen true happiness or enjoyed a really happy moment, all their miseries made them loose faith in everything and everyone and bottom line they will trust no candidate to alter their miseries into happiness so they decided to BOYCOT!
As I continue reading History, influenced with a Ramadan Soap Best Friends or precisely world to word translation “Life Friend” pointing to R.I.P. both Nasser and his best mate Amer! I was too young but I still recall some vital events in this period, I recall after the famous 6 hours war on Monday 5th. June 1967, Nasser announcing our defeat on the following Friday 9 June 1967, and stepping down from the presidency sit! I recall how the people of Egypt, rejected the defeat, and decided to stand up with their all time national hero Jamal Abdul Nasser, asking him to stay president and withdraw his resignation! R.I.P. Sadat, and the then National Assembly which become temporarily in power while no president with Nasser’s resignation in effect, they officially requested from Nasser to remain in power as per people demand who come waves and waves in marches from the National Assembly headquarters on Kasr El Eni street really close to where I used to live at the corner of that street with El Tahrir Street, over viewing the famous Tahrir Square which made me see and live many events life upon their happening!
As I keep reading history, I try to learn or understand events, I analyze from my point of view but I do not clam it is error free or above criticism, I welcome any new points of view or alternative ideas. The reason is to learn from previous mistakes to avoid them in the future not to judge or condemn any person. In today’s issue I’ll jump to more recent history, I lived some of its event but was too young to understand what really was going on, I recall the joy of the announcement of the creation of the new born United Arab Republic –Egypt & Syria- history tells me it was created 1957, but I do not really recall that date, I recall as well the sad day of separation and the death of that Union, but I have no recollection of the reasons that lead to it! However, from a recent Ramadan soap that is still going on and cannot be qualified as a historical review or source, I noticed myself historical errors –but it is not my point- I can see several facts about that period, or say the ex president R.I.P. Nasser and his regime first of all decisions were always single person’s decision. Yes, there were meetings and discussions, points of view coming up but no one would defend his point of view, like if he was afraid to upset the decision maker!
As Promised last week this is my 1st Reading History series article that I might interrupt from time to time when urgent or unexpected events occurs that needs my attention or comments, however, I’ll try as much as possible to explain -from my point of view- errors and mistakes of the past and the terrific results that might be affecting us today and to explain this let me take a simple example terrorism in Egypt.
Let me first wish Egyptians, Egypt, and all Egypt’s friends and enemies a very happy Ramadan –Ramadan Moubarak- May God Keep blessing you all. I watched yesterday the documentary film “Copts’ Island” in fact I miss a lot documentaries movies on Egyptian TV, ALL Egyptian channels broadcast drama, news, talk shows but no documentaries. My last ever memories go back to 60’s when Abd-El-Fatah Gohar (R.I.P) used to teach us the underwater secrets of the seas and oceans in his weekly program The World Of Seas or “Alam El Behar” in Arabic; other documentaries in this era included PhD. Mostapha Mahmoud (R.I.P) “El Elm wal Iman” or Science and Faith and I do not recall the presenter of “Hadth fi Mithl Haza Alyoum” or Happened in a Similar day, and “Alam el Hayaouan” or the Animal’s World!
Upon elections few weeks back as I noticed a general dismay within Egyptian youth having determined that elections was the final pre-plotted step of the so called Coup-D’états; refusing to admit that over 40 million Egyptians had revolted on 30/6/2013 and confirmed their desires time after time that they wanted back the stolen presidency sit to give it to whoever they trusted.
Long ago early 70’s someone I know used to work for a medical entity, and suddenly there was the boom his sells commissions sky hi he got not just one but two wealthy superrich customers who decided to construct not 1 or 2 hospitals but many! Hospital equipment compared to private clinics equipment is just like someone building a castle on the sands of the desert facing Khufu great pyramid! It was really the greatest ever times of this guy, cause like things started suddenly ended brutally, and these 2 wealthy customers who were building not just 1 or two hospitals but many of them were none other Iraq and Iran! 70’s where still peaceful, but plans were going on building hospitals meant they expect lot of sick people, or INJURED but why?
Today I’ll be brief in my words I usually start writing my articles during the week and conclude review and put final touches Early on Sunday so that they are published over the net the following day, Monday. Well today Sunday 08th of June 2014 is different! For Egypt today is a memorial day, for the first time in recent history the ruling Egyptian president, gives up ruling powers to a successor president!
Today and finally I’m free from the obligation I had to respect which was simply being neutral between two candidates and hide my intentions and inner feelings as much as possible. I’m not sure if I did succeed but I had to advise people direct them to the proper free decision without pointing to any directions. Your decision can never be free if I tell you this is the right decision, pointing to a decision!
This article will be available on May 26th. The first day of presidential election most likely will read it afar you had voted or boycotted presidential elections but there would be a second chance the following day the very LAST DAY!
In the near past I wrote articles about today's young revolutionary in Egypt the 25th January 2011 ones or all other new generations who reject all and any solution, I was furious from the disrespect of some of them to the elderly who try to discuss with them trying to make them reason to the sound of wisdom; I was wrong and emotional aggressive more than discussing the issue!
I spoke and wrote more than an article about arts, mainly motivated by a decision or movie I saw, today's motivation is a YOUTUBE clip of Amr Adib furiously attacking a movie that is still under evaluation and wether to be allowed or not as per honorable PM Eng. Mehleb instructions! This is the second time I talk about this issue but before I start talking I need to make the following points crystal clear:- 1. I'm not defending / attacking this movie or a movie 2. Nor am I Discussing the point of view of a producer, director or the crew cast of a movie! 3. I have not seen that movie, Amr Adib was attacking, and never heard of Safinaz or Sofinor -whatever her name is- and till that moment never seen her before! However, I heard that the movie taken from a movie that I did see!
After eight times power off and consequently no net I try to write down this article praying God to end it up before the 9th. Cut of POWER, my Laptop requested to charge its batteries before I go again on them but how can I if the power is off!!! My main point today is the presidential elections hoping and praying to God they do end up in peace with the best choice of people, and whoever is chosen that with the people he can fulfill people's expectations to reach the safe ne brighter future and get out of this deep hole ousted Mosry tried to drag Egypt in it!
First let me apologize about last week article I was not able to write it due to a mixture of health, Internet and other problems I faced however all that is thank God history now.In fact I had a lot to say and still need to talk to you all Egyptians and my article today would be of 3 main points as follows:
One more week closer to the elections hopping for a better future, however a quick look to world’s news I do see same old story same problems same people volunteer to solve people and countries’ problems! Is it real solidarity or just political propaganda when people remain un-employed stay hungry poor while the rich becomes richer!
Starting with myself for serious work I would like to apologize for being unable to participate in last week's Joices with the decision of ex-marshal Abd El Fatah El Sisi to resign his post in the army and fulfill people's call to compete for the elections of presidency! In this issue I would like to point out the huge difference between someone working for living and meet the ends of the month and someone who loves his job and dedicates his whole life for the job he always loved for over 45 years was proud the wear the Army Suit like Marshal Sisi! His Decision to quit the army answering people's call was a huge sacrifice we should never forget!
I’m not an economist but I had some basic training upon my studies in economy and I’ll try to explain how things work in normal life. Gold reserve one calls national gold reserves, which stand usually in the area of responsibility of a central bank or a Treasury. The purpose of national gold reserves existed in former times mostly in the covering of currencies (gold standard). Today gold is predominantly kept as national reserve for crisis periods. The state can deny e.g. unexpected extra charges by sales of the gold, and secure itself thereby thus against disasters. In last week article I spoke of the expected bankruptcy of Egypt announced by the resigned managing director of Egypt’s central bank M. Farouk Okda who said it clearly he could not stay in position to the moment he would have to announce this bankruptcy! Really what is going on?
