Once again Copts have been forced to leave their homes after Muslim mobs loot and set them ablaze, this time in the village of Dahshor, 20 miles south of Cairo. This incident began on Wednesday (July 25) with a singed shirt mistakenly scorched by a Coptic laundry presser who was preparing the garment. This commonplace slip-up spurred the fury of a three-day rampage headed by the enraged customer after finding his shirt ruined. When the business owner, who was also the presser of the laundry establishment, accidently burned a shirt belonging to a Muslim customer, a heated argument between the two men ensued over the damages. This soon escalated into a physical fight -- after which the mad customer left the store.
Yasser Ali, the official spokesman of the presidential office, announced that the Copts of Dahshur have not suffered from forced displacement, and they have chosen to leave the village willingly
It was clear after Mubarak had stepped down that there are internal and external forces that support the Islamists
Today, Egypt’s facing an unprecedented phase in its modern history and is governed by a very different kind of rulers. However, it’s so weird to have a president that belongs to Muslim Brotherhood. In fact, Dr. Mohammed Morsy is very unique and should be given the title “the first” in many things. He is the first elected president for Egypt who belongs to MB, and the first president
Last week in my first part I tried to explain the difference between faith or being faithful to God and your religion and depending on God in our live and passivity or being passive in your life awaiting God's hand to move matters, my feeling was and still I want to be firm I reject being manipulated by others and reject the solution of migrating or leaving my country forced.
Yesterday, there was another attempt to break into a church, after demolishing the church of Atfih, burning the church of Embaba
Nowadays, people in Egypt are worried about the life of a young man more than the future of all Egyptians; I mean death of the young man of Dahshur, and the constitution that MB is trying to use to blur the Egyptian identity. Actually, I was hoping that several demonstrations are going to be held to support a civil state in Egypt.
President Mohammed Morsy will never work away from Muslim Brotherhood after it had brought him to the presidential office. MB had a project since its very beginning. It's not true that MB will separate from Morsy, or Morsy from MB. Moreover, I believe that all his real advisers and assistances will be MB members. Moreover, he wouldn't take any important decision without consulting the Guidance Bureau of MB.
Eight years have passed since the Palestinian President Yasser Arafat has died or has been killed. However nowadays, his death is being investigated as well as his clothes to find out if this great leader was assassinated or not.
Lot of people specially Christians in Egypt who are not happy of the political view in Egypt, did not accept the results of the elections -real or fake- and keep praying for Egypt awaiting for the Holly Ghost to come remove the MB from Egypt!
People make and choose their rulers, thus, they deserve them. This applies whether such ruler was elected or came by force. Such people has given him the chance to rule them.
king of hearts was the title given to Sir Magdy Yacoub by Diana, Princess of Wales, for his miracles in heart transplantation, and for his researches and experiments over many years in order to develop heart transplantation and save millions of hearts in a very unique way.
July is a significant month in the Egyptian history since 1952 till today. During this month, Egypt has experienced many important events and incidents. Today, a member of Muslim Brotherhood, that had many disagreements with the revolution of July 23 through conspiracies and assassinations, governs Egypt. Few weeks ago, Morsy gave a speech in which he attacked Nasser and the revolution of the army however MB can't repeat any of its achievements.
I do not think there is a sane person who believes that any religion may permit its followers to torture animals or human being. However, Do Islamists believe the same? They should do as long as they claim they are religious and they have already suffered a lot from it by the former regime. The truth is they only refuse it when it is against them, but they are allowed to torture the others if they need to!
Last week I wrote Lament for the death of Fekry Abd Moutaleb a great researcher and writer we lost … Today I found myself having to Lament the Gereral Omar Soleiman who died on 19th of July in the States in suspicions circumstances, and it was said he was poisoned and his death is part a conspiracy.
I've found a video on youtube for a leader in Freedom and Justice Party in Alexandria in which he was having sex with an arab prostitute, which was crystal clear in her talking with him. She announced her great acceptance of criticism in order to improve her performance saying: “Tell me if you don't like it!”
Since the very beginning of the revolution against Mubarak's regime, it was crystal clear that Field Marshal Tantawy is ready to do anything to please Muslim Brotherhood. He asked them to meet with Omar Suleiman, former vice-president by the time of the revolution, to negotiate their demands. Then, Tantawi choose a number of MB leaders to write the constitutional declaration.
Centers of human rights, and some Coptic institutions support the stay of article II as it is in the Constitution of 1971 with no change. However, many people think that the current committee will fail like its predecessor, as it doesn't really represent the Egyptian community or its minorities.
I used to wonder upon reading the history of our Coptic grandfathers, and how they allowed Egypt to be occupied so easily. And now, we are about to repeat the same incidents. Egyptians are so disintegrated. It looks like we no longer care for our country or its great civilization.
Few days back last week Fekry Abd Elmotaleb left our word for ever to meet his creator; but I know lots of you wonder who is he and many of you never ever heard his name and might even had seen him and listened to his words but just like me do not keep names in memory or just seen it and never got the chance to know his name.
I cannot believe that my beloved and the beginning of civilization is dying. Egypt my dear, I can sea tears on your cheeks and I can see your Nile River bleeding. I can see the pale face of the Sphinx wondering: is this the end!
