Why did the Pope decide to visit Jerusalem? What are the implications of this visit? This question has become sort of riddles and puzzles in Egypt after he assured several times that he won’t visit Jerusalem unless he was accompanied with Sheikh Al-Azhar. However, we suddenly found him in Jerusalem to attend the funeral of Coptic Bishop of Jerusalem. Of course he has some good reasons to do the visit at that time, but this visit comes by leader of the Coptic Church that prevents its people from such visit! In fact, this visit is a historic step that corrects a wrong political decision that was taken by the church. It was sort of a divine will that is hard to be explained. Such visit may come to support the Palestinian people that are suffering under the Israeli occupation.
Last week I was supposed to publish my weekly article from Manchester and HELL NO I was still in Egypt making guesses and building up theories how the hell that had happened and whose fault was it. I was almost certain about the simple fact that the new airport had missing information system –and it is true to a certain extend this will be my future article issue- however as facts kept unfolding over the past week I got the full clear truth no illusions in it no theories nothing but facts, so as my first part of last week article was built on theories not facts I was heading as an Information Technologist to a simplified lesson on "How to build an Information System". This will be my future article(s)! The Facts that prevented my travel on time! 1. I was due to travel to Manchester on Thursday 19 November 2015 around 4am. 2. The carrier was Turkish Airlines that I had traveled with then from Manchester some time on Marsh, they were supposed to fly me to Ankara then back to Manchester. 3. On due time I was by the Turkish Airlines check in counter to collect my boarding pass.
Anyone trying to observe Turkey’s Inclinations, especially after it destroyed the Russian war airplane, will come to find that Turkey defends terrorism more than they defend democracy. I read a lot of comments from Turkey’s politicians and I have never read any comment saying, “Sorry for killing the Russian Soldiers” even if it wasn’t Turkey’s mistake. Turkey isn’t an enemy to Russia and Russia didn’t declare the war against Turkey because of this accident.
In 1928, the Great Britain manufactured the Islamic atomic bomb and delivered to the Egyptian people in Ismailia. This bomb, that was called the Muslim Brotherhood, was able to destroy religion, identity, mind, and a large part of the Egyptian conscience. The United States developed the bomb to increase its strength. Later, it used the new bomb against the Middle East. It was called “Arab Spring Revolutions”. Tunisia, Egypt, Syria, Libya and Yemen were seriously affected by this bomb. Other countries like Bahrain, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and UAE suffered from less destructive effects.
I write this article to demonstrate that the meanness of the Muslim Brotherhood has no end, and it doesn’t differentiate between life and death. This terrorist group is willing to curse and insult even the martyrs of the Egyptian army. The Muslim Brotherhood proves every now and then that they are enemies of humanity and life. All terrorists and murderers are linked to this terrorist group like Ayat Orabi, former Egyptian anchor that belongs to the Muslim Brotherhood and lives currently in America. She spoke from her exile to curse and insult the great martyr Mohammed Haroun who was a prominent officer in fighting terrorists in Sinai.
Christian citizens in Egypt dream of being martyrs. This is how their church teaches them. They believe they are very weak and less important before the government than other citizens. They fight in order to get permits to build houses of worship. Such facts tuned Coptic Christian into such weak personalities. The dream of obtaining leadership positions became sort of impossible.
After the Paris attacks, many activists rushed to put the French flag on their profiles on Facebook. They claimed they sympathize with the French people in their crisis, which is great feeling. However, none of them put the picture of the Egyptian flag in any crisis that hit Egypt since the overthrow of the Muslim Brotherhood. Moreover, some of them claimed that France has never attacked Egypt unlike America, Britain and Israel. They totally forgot about the French occupation in Egypt that killed many people and defiled al-Azhar mosque in the 18th century by entered it with horses. They also forgot about the French occupation in Algeria in the 20th century.
In last week article I predicted this week article will be written somewhere far away from Egypt; I had a scheduled flight to Manchester, whoevex, as we say in our daily prayer:- The Lord's Prayer Our father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespassess as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen The Lord had different will, I have surrendered my life to his hands since I got Psalm 91 sometime ago, but not too long ago, and a flash light in my memory reminded me while reading it for the first time, of instances in my life when the Lord really protected me! Deep inside me I did not want to Travel!
There are two events that have happened recently in Egypt. These two events are completely related, but at the same time, are contradicting. The first event was the first phase of the parliamentary elections in which the participation reached to barely 12%, and if we compare this percent with the parliamentary elections in 2011, we will find a big difference. This indicates to me that the Egyptians are not satisfied and don’t believe in the political process any more.
We heard that the Saudi regime strongly denounced the terrorist attacks at Paris assuring that the terrorists know nothing about real Islam! However, politicians and leaders of Europe know very well that the Saudi regime plays the hypocrite since the attacks made its religious institutions happy. Since Saudi family took over vast land to make the Saudi Arabia, it supported Wahhabism and paid a lot of money to spread it not only in Arab counties, but also all over the world and among those whom the extremists call “the infidels”. It’s known that the Soviet Union from 1917 to 1988 hasn’t spend tenth of what Saudi Arabia spent to spread Wahhabism.
Democracy is not an important commodity in our country or even in the region. It’s rare and precious, but finds nobody to care for. We should stop talking about democracy since many people are talking about in media and in streets. Yet, they don’t understand what democracy is. In fact, there is no place for democracy in our country. The typical Egyptian citizen doesn’t feel he or she needs democracy or civil state. He or she has voted several times for religious country and accepted a military state for more than 65 years. We need to practice democracy starting with equality.
The Egyptian society has changed a lot after the revolution of January 25. This revolution therefore gave life to the people who were considered dead. The Egyptian president announced that the current situation is challenging. Thus, we have to work hard for the sake of our country. With several achievements, the Egyptian people were reassured and asked for more prosperity without more work. Many people thought that prices will go down and food will go cheaper. They forgot that several challenges are facing the country including terrorism that aims to destroy the state by all means.
Egyptian judiciary is a great one, but it takes very long time to issue verdicts. It takes years and years to achieve justice. This was clear during the trials of masters and leaders of terrorism of the Muslim Brotherhood. The evidence is crystal clear with several documents and videos for their crimes. However, two years have passed without final verdicts. Several verdicts of death penalty were not applied as well. This gives them great opportunity to conspire against Egypt putting greater pressure on her through the fifth column and the conspiratorial media!
I was planning to write about tourism in Egypt I had a few Ideas but once again terrorism and their actions imposed a change of plans in my last post from Egypt as I’ll resume my few future articles from other countries. Before I start I’m undecided may be you could help me make my mind; Some time ago an ISIS executioner of British origin clearly identified by name and origin despite his mask and disguise but his accent clearly identified him, his voice made it clear he was John whatever though he changed his name to Mohamed something!
No normal human being in the world couldn't sympathsyis with france for what happened last day resulting in killing more than 127 people and left 200 people injured. Its a horrible and inhumanity accedient. I introduce my condolence and asking God to have mercy in their souls.
35 years ago, I decided to migrate to Switzerland, the beautiful country that I moved to without facing sectarian pressure of my home country. Sectarianism was not clear in Egypt at that time. I remember the cultural shock I had at the first period of migration that had great impact on me. I was born and raised in a conservative community that considers its ideas the absolute truth. For example: we thought that the Egyptians are the best people all over the world, and that our ideas are the best among the nations! We loved such ideas at that time since they fed our pride and joy. We didn’t even care after all about our real situation among the nation.
Religion is different from politics since politics is full of hypocrisy, deceit, and lying. Clergy who work in politics should stay away from religion in order not to offend religion. After Berhamy and Paula played the hypocrite in committee to amend the constitution, they tried to mobilize the people to vote in favor of certain candidates in the parliamentary elections. This comes after they passed a religious based constitution according to their preferences.
The spring Arab of demolition was supposed to enter its second phase by destroying kingdoms of the gulf countries. Yet, the situation in Egypt and Syria postponed this phase for a while. However, such delay didn't please the supervisors of creative chaos project. Asad should have left and armed militias should have spread in Syria like Libya for more destruction. Egypt was supposed to be controlled by ISIS after destroying the pyramids and churches, and slaying the Copts. Supervisors of creative chaos project decided to stir more conflicts and destruction by destroying the Egyptian economy and tourism. The Russian airplane accident was their way to do so. They didn't care about the death of 224 civilians including children. ISIS claimed responsibility for the attack before Britain, America, France, Germany, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates and Russia suspended its flights to Egypt.
England holds bad memories for Port Said city. The end of the British Empire came in Egypt. The writings against the English occupation are still on the walls of my city: "your king is a woman", "the channel is ours", and "We are all Nasser". I do not know if James Cameron remembers the resignation of Anthony Eden, former British Prime Minister after his failure to return to the Canal and get rid of Gamal Abdel Nasser.
This is a local Egyptian proverb “From each field a flower” and this is exactly what today’s article would be, not a specific subject but all subjects concerning Egyptians and Egyptian streets, the thoughts of today and yesterday, the 1st president visit to the United Kingdom in 13 years, the Aeroplane accident in Sinai, Old Age people concerns on a minister declaration about due pensions and many more issues but let me start with a vital question to international intelligence that suggests the Aeroplane accident in Sinai was a terrorist attack!
The West always likes to appear as experts in everything, even in matters they are clearly not. In the latest Russian airplane crash in Egypt, all of the UK, the US, and France started to suggest that the airplane was bombed from inside. They are trying to say that our Intelligence Agencies figured out this fact without waiting for the investigation’s outcome.
