Cunning of Sadat cost him dearly as well as the homeland. Most of his retinue supported him without even thinking. He took office in 1970, and witnessed the great 1971 Constitution which stated that the presidential term is 6 years for only two sessions. This means he had to hand over the presidency in 1982. However, Sadat was hoping to rule forever. Therefore, he decided to use the religion to achieve his goal. He amended the second article of the Constitution to state that the Islamic Sharia is the main source of legislation.

Yes first part of elections is over however set backs all over; We all know the results and somehow we are all disappointed When a business man his main activity is buying old houses, to demolish them and build towers over the same space the old house occupied with apartments for rent or sell in each floor as much apartments as the whole old house, it is a self generating money business why the hell would such a person buy his sit to the parliament buying the voters who decided not to vote for the good of the country nut accepted to sell their concious? Is it to help the country rise again? Where the hell was he when he left his construction site with a mountain of left over construction rubbish?

No one can deny the importance of the media in any society. However, this shouldn’t be taken as a reason to tolerate the media when they are going in the wrong direction. I don’t want to focus on the last episode introduced by Riham Saeed. I completely am against what she did, and I believe she should go to the court for her actions. Having said that, Riham Saeed is just an example of the turmoil we live in nowadays. Facing terrorism doesn’t mean hiding all the problems and mistakes that the executive authorities do everyday against its citizens. Everyday I read a new story about a prisoner dying due to their torture and abuse in the custody of the jail. If we go back to the 25th of January 2011 revolution, we will remember that parliamentary elections in 2010 and the increase in the torturing of prisoners were the reasons the revolution was sparked. I believe that we have a similar situation now as we had before.

Several religious posters appeared on the walls of buildings and means of transportation in Egypt during the first phase of the parliamentary elections. The same people who used to trade on religion are still trading. They used such posters to assure their presence and impose religion in all aspects of life in Egypt. Those who don't respect such posters should be called infidels and accused of contempt of religion!

It was coincidence that the historical city of Alexandria was flooded by heavy rain at the time the government is thinking about floating exchange rates of the Egyptian pound. Both governors of Alexandria and the Central bank resigned at the same time as well. Governor of Alexandria denied his resignation hours before it was confirmed. The governor of the central bank did his best to save the Egyptian economy, but governor of Alexandria didn’t do his best to prevent the disaster and had to leave.

I knew the Egyptian online forces after the dispersal of Rabaa Adawia and Nahda sit-ins. At that time, several Egyptian governmental websites were under attack until the Egyptian hackers appeared calling themselves Egyptian online forces. They don’t belong to the government, but they do belong to Egypt. Therefore, they started to attack counter Egypt websites that incite against police and army.

Egyptians proved during the first phase of the Egyptian elections that the revolution is still going to cleanse Egypt of corruption and Religious fanaticism that hit the country since Sadat's rule that witnessed the emergence of political Islam. The ruling regime used political Islam to hit the opposition. Saudi Arabia backed extremist groups aiming to spread Wahabbism in Egypt. After January revolution, the Military Council recognized the terrorist groups and the religious parties, and gave them the country to ensure their safe exit.

Last week for exceptional reasons I had to apologize from writing my weekly article as I never before had experienced such a strong stroke of flu. It was not just sneezing or coughing, rise in temperature or fever I just experienced all that adding to it a total drop of appetite and activity I could only sleep! After 3 continuous days of no food no motion no activity just continuous sleep interrupted by sneezing or coughing or both! Then by a miracle all alone was able to leave my bed, stand up and I really felt what God said:-

If we step back and take a look, 2 countries were going through elections at the same time. We had just recently the Parliamentary elections in Egypt. Meanwhile, on the other side of the world in Canada, they were holding the voting and 11 week campaign for Prime Minister Elections. I want to take a moment and compare how unbelievably different these two nations participated in this democratic right.

The majority of the Egyptian people decided not to participate in the House of Representatives elections. They don’t just vote, but they vote for those whom are well known. The elite may do this to please the governors. The candidates didn’t exert a lot of effort to present themselves to the people. The president didn’t urge the people to participate, but invited them to do through formal speech that didn’t tough the people like improvising. He wasn’t excited during the speech unlike the first time when he urged the people to demonstrate on July 2013. He has not improvised even during the opening of the New Suez Canal Project.

On June 8th, 2014, the Egyptians elected Field Marshal Abdel Fattah al-Sisi as the first president after the revolution of June 30. He was elected by more than 22 million Egyptians. Since he took office under very difficult circumstances, he worked very hard to restore the Egyptian impact on the international level. He visited several countries around the world to teach them about what happened at the revolution of June 30 after Egypt got rid of the religious fascism that ruled Egypt for a while.

Two years have passed after the revolution of June 30, and 16 months since General Abdel Fattah al-Sisi took power in Egypt. Yet, with the approach of the Parliamentary election, I find myself for the first time in my life not interested in them. I have always participated in the elections and encouraged the others to participate even when I traveled to Paris. However, this time I don’t really care! I don’t want to know about the candidates or the schedule of the elections. I have no desire to participate or encourage the others to participate.

ISIS may be behind Ankara bombings and not Erdogan himself. Those who love power may do more than this in order to protect this power. However, it’s painful to see people in Turkey suffering like we did and still do. I pray to God that their suffering comes to an end. I believe ISIS behind such bombings though Erdogan supported them all the way. He gave them weapons and provided medical care for their fighters. Yet, they paid him back by killing his people. Maybe he encouraged them to do so for some reason, or they may betrayed him after the Russian bear attacked them using his new weapons.

I feel really embarrassed and never thought of a day I would have to ask my readers –if I do have any followers- to excuse me as I'm unable to write or concentrate on the subject I was planning to write about it and it is so vital as elections are being closer by the minute, just few hours ago our president was speaking about it!

Last week there was a lot of statements made by the Al-Nour Party proving that without a doubt, that they are a religious party, not a secular one. The Al-Nour party proclaimed that they would allow Copts to be candidates under their reign just because they want to respect the law. This means that in their own belief they don’t think that the Copts are citizens, or that they have the same rights. The Al-Nour Party confirmed that Copts are not considered citizens and they are just doing them a favor by putting them in their elections list. However, I can say that many Copts are the reason of giving Al-Nour party the chance to withdraw their rights and consider it as a favor.

October War was not only a military victory against Israel, but also a consecration of national unity between Muslims and Christians. The war revealed sacrifice, love and ingenuity of the Egyptians. This war integrated love of homeland and religion. This homeland cares indeed for all Egyptians no matter what their religion is. The list of the martyrs includes names of Coptic Christens as well as Muslims.

October War was a great achievement by great leaders including Major General Saad El Shazly Chief of Army Staff and Maj. Gen. Abdul Ghani Gamassi, director of operations for the Egyptian military. Wars are usually led all over the world by chief of army staff, but in Egypt the president is considered the supreme commander of the army. Not only is the president entitled to set the general plans, but also to take care of the details instead of the Chief of Staff. In Egypt, the defense minister is called the general commander of the Army.

In August 2014 and in February 2015, Presidents Abdel Fattah al-Sisi and Vladimir Putin held meetings to discuss the situation in the Middle East. They discussed the complicated situation that was planned by several evil powers including America and the Muslim Brotherhood that serves the World Zionist goals in the region. The two leaders understood that the most dangerous organization is ISIS that that follows an American plan and is funded by the Saudi Arabia. This terrorist organization commits all kinds of crimes against humanity in the name of Islam.

In my program, I hosted with great pride two honored guests: Atef Nazmi, lawyer of the martyrs of Maspero, and my friend Isaac Ibrahim, human rights activist and member of the Egyptian initiative. I found myself comparing between the treatment of the international organizations to the victims of the two accidents in Rabaa Adawia and in Maspero. However, I am sorry for conducting such comparison between those who demonstrated peacefully demanding freedom and equality, and those who carried weapons and incited violence. They even refused to evacuate the place ignoring all warnings of the security forces.

Ernesto "Che" Guevara born on June 14, 1928 died -assassinated- on October 9, 1967; commonly known as el Che or simply Che, was an Argentine Marxist revolutionary, physician, author, guerilla leader, diplomat, and military theorist. A major figure of the Cuban Revolution, his stylized visage has become a ubiquitous counter-cultural symbol of rebellion and global insignia in popular culture. He visited Egypt on 1956 and received by R.I.P. Ex-president Nasser, (documentary video clip about this visit still available on Youtube). As a young medical student, Guevara travelled throughout South America and was radicalised by the poverty, hunger, and disease he witnessed, his burgeoning desire to help overturn what he saw as the capitalist exploitation of Latin America by the United States prompted his involvement in Guatemala's social reforms solidified Guevara's political ideology as Marxist.

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.
