Alexander the great or Alexander the gay ?

Was Alexander the great really as they are saying now gay?
Sorry to be specific in the description was he really bisexual person?
Since the 70s of the last century and there are claims that were turned as historical facts that the great young leader who invaded the world was a gay and he preferred men over women and the rest of this talk you can find in Oliver Stone's Alexander movie!!
Greeks refuse these claims and if you remember when Alexander the movie was released and even they sued Stone for spreading these claims.
Anyway I was watching today a documentary in Discovery channel in Showtime Arabia, this documentary was Battle ground: Ancient wars, it was about the famous historical war between the Persian army and Alexander the great army.
That ancient war is not only historical but legendary 45 thousand Greek solider in front of 1/2 million Persian solider in Persia "Iran now" and yet Alexander made a miracle and won.
The tactics used in the war are great, the plan, the whole design of the Greek army, also the personality and intelligence of Alexander as a commander, an excellent documentary.
This documentary made me think a lot about the claims about Alexander's sexuality is he or is he not?
I felt from the documentary that he is straight man; the kind of a commander to achieve this victory must be a man on all levels if you understand what I am saying.
Also I remember I saw another documentary on Discovery civilization called lost civilizations: Persia and I remember them saying that Alexander warned his officers and soldiers from imitating the Persian lifestyle as it is homosexual life style no suitable for a man, as Alexander who came from Harsh country compared to Persia finds the Persians were not men enough as they had so comfortable lifestyle, this is recorded in historical records ,as you see Homosexuality was something bad from his point of view ,something he warned his officers and soldiers from , so how come he became a gay!?
Another thing and this historical proof, according to the Egyptian Egyptologists and historians and also Greek literature and history professors there is no single Greek record or document saying that he was a gay.
Also it was well known that he had many wives and the most famous one of them was Roxanna
So what is the story?
It started in the Novel "The Persian slave or boy" as I read some where from sometime after that Alexander the great joined Leonardo Da Vinci in the ancient gay club!!
I don't believe that for one good reason, historians always change history as they are humans; already the western Historians portrayed Cleopatra as whore who stole roman men from their wives while she was an intelligent woman who worked very hard to preserve the independence and dignity of her own country!!
This reminds me with stupid claims by some western historians I saw it on either the National geographic channel "Asia" or on the history channel saying that Akhenaton, the famous pharaoh and the first person in Egypt to call for One God, was a gay!!!!
Despite all the historical proofs that he was a straight man who adored both his wife and his mistress "he had one who gave birth to son!!"
What about you folks? Do you think that Alexander was gay?

El-intifida in 2005 elections!!

Thank God that the Bloody circus of the 2005 parliament elections in Egypt had finished today , it finished dramatically and sadly
The death toll reached in to 4 persons in the elections , this session or phase three were killed added to the 20 years old young man who was killed in this second phase of the elections in Alexandria :(
This time not the thugs but those who let the thugs out ,the police forces and the central security forces "the anti-riots forces"
I watched a scene in the Al-Jazeera news of course not on the national TV ,on Egyptian TV everything is fine ,rosey and under the control
back to the scene
with no introduction or description , it is scene you can see it in the Palestinian intifida , Israeli soldiers opening their fires and Palestinians throwing stones at them
now change the Israeli forces with the Egyptian anti riots forces and the Palestinians with Egyptian electors
Just like the war !!
The government and interior ministry as usual put the blame on the Muslim brotherhood and the banned group put the blame on the government
I as an Egyptian Citizen put the blame on the government and the interior ministry which really I wish to see its minister resigns.
Guys who got guns and soldiers ? Who prevented the electors from voting ?
The Muslim brothers and sisters or the government and behind the NDP !!!!
It is disgusting and disgrace

Stupid practical Joke

Today the traffic in El-Gizah especially the Dokki-Mohendissn area was terrible ,in other words sucks and a terrible traffic jam ,some people I know got stuck in traffic for a whole hour.
It was as if we were on Thursday ,no one knows the reason
I thought may be because some V.I.P jerk visiting some place in the area " I was stuck in this traffic jam "
and now I know why
Some jerk seems to me a student who hates his school ,called the Egyptian police to inform them that there is a bomb in the Deutsche School in Dokki !!!
already the Deutsche school is in a busy part of town "for those who know the map of Dokki and Giza will understand what I mean"
it turned out there is no bomb or any terrorist act except some stupid phone call from some loser.
Stupid practical joke :(

I changed the Computer Heart

Oh boy this was one of the worst weekends ever, on last thursday my computer suddenly stopped working , like a human body with no pulse at all .
I didn't know why that happened really at first but I began to use my mind , and I found out there was something wrong with the power supply and I was right.
An Excellent computer nerd told me that it was the power supply box , the computer's heart and that I must change the heart immediately with a new one with more watts

So only yesterday I bought a new heart and my computer had a litte operation and here we are back in business :)

no updates

Sorry folks there will be no update for this blog for awhile as i have serious problem in pc,already this post is from my mobile phone:(

The minorities report in Egypt

The minorities report in Egypt [with no apology to Cruise and Spielberg boring movie]
There are other minorities than the Copts "Orthodox Christian Egyptian" that don't have its rights completely
In fact if we compare their conditions with the Copts conditions, we will find that Copts are much more fortunate than them
What are these minorities?

1. The Bedouin Arab tribes of Sinai


2. The Bedouin tribes of the West desert


3. The Nubian people

Today it will be about the Arab Bedouin tribes of Sinai

• The Bedouin Arab tribes of Sinai , already they stood beside the Egyptian people to get back our land yet we repaid the debut in the worst way especially the security forces which since the first Taba blasts began a mass operation of Oppression against them started in Arish on the Egyptian –Palestinian borders , mass arresting operations to Women and Children ,and of course with harassments to the women ,reports of human rights organizations said it is harassments from both kinds "Physical " and "sexual", people we are considered from the urban parts yet we don't accept such behavior and feel so angry just like what happened over the Journalists syndication from few months , so can you imagine what are the feelings of the Arab Bedouins tribes towards the security forces especially the honor for such tribes is a big thing and they don't forget , Taba blast was just the beginning of the hell the tribes of Sinai would see later after the Sharm El-Sheikh blast on the last 22nd of July 2005 , Let's just say the truth that till this moment the Egyptian don't have a clear idea about what really happened in Sharm .

Already since the casualties number and the government lies machine in working on , I heard many tales from people who live in Sharm about what happened there , also the security forces and the Egyptian police's way in handling things , every now and then a news in the news bar on TV "Murder of one of the doers of Sharm blasts", this news flash appeared many times that I wonder how many people really made the blast and who are really they , just bunch of unemployed Bedouins who turned in to radicalism or what?
Anyway what happened from mistreatment to the Bedouins in Sinai there was a disgrace, torture, mass arresting to ladies and children, harassment and that's really enough to make the people of Sinai just hate those bloody people who come from Valley of the Nile.
If you go to Sinai and see the life of those people, you will sure feel with some suffering.
After all they turned in to some human exhibition to the tourists there , I am sorry but as Egyptian I don't like this and then we come with our security phobia to turn their in to hell "boy the Israelis were better"
Before the elections, the 10o' program on Dream 2 discussed this issue with people from there and it was tragedy and of course the NDP member spoke of how Sinai whether North and South turned in to heaven in the last 20 years!!!!! "Tourist heaven may be!!"
No one denies that Sinai and some Bedouin tribes turned in to smuggling and drug trafficking but why?
Simply because the government didn't give them any help to improve their living. Yes they plant drugs and hush in the land that supposed to be plant wheat and corn but did the government give them a real help to spread the wheat farms instead of the hush farms in the vales of Sinai.
The government was thankful to make the Al-Salaam Lake and the Nile river water reached Sinai but it is not enough , the red tapes and high price of the land are constraints to anyone who just thinking to work in cultivation there .
If you think more and more in this issue, you will find that it isn't the Egyptian people mistake at all, we are not racists heaven forbids but it is the regime and the government's fault that don't care about the people as it should be.
The unemployment in the younger generation of Bedouins in Sinai is the main reason they turned in to crime and terrorism, also the lack of education.
Really how many schools are there?
And how many students there enrolled in the education process?
Many questions with no or even embarrassing shocking answers
Lack in education, lack in medical care, and lack in, lack in …….etc  
The people of Sinai, are just like the rest of Egyptian people don't ask much, just a little respect and good life
I guess these demands are very modest and after all they are Egyptian people and live under the Egyptian flag.
Imagine this scene a young Bedouin kid doesn't go to school, live in poverty and ignorance, suddenly he sees his mom being dragged out of there house in the most humiliated way by an Egyptian police officer from her hair because some one said to be from the Bedouin "not so sure also" bombed himself in a hotel beside a vip residence, and those bad terrorists are from the Bedouins and they escaped somewhere in Sinai, and they are not related to the family of the kid near or far!!
This kid rose upon the values of Honor and so, do you expect that he will be loyal to the flag and the regime and the country? After all he is mom was humiliated under the name of protecting the nation!!
By the way many people now in Egypt speak about these terrible acts against those poor civilians especially Soot El-Omaa newspaper made reports about what happened there for many issues and no one cared from the government to deny these accusations
The Egyptian government and security are losing as usual minds and hearts in Sinai, Losing allies that they depended upon a lot in the time of the war and I am afraid that the Israeli forces hadn't done in six years what the Egyptian police did in few months!!
The Egyptian police says that by this way it fights and eliminates terrorism but really by this way it spread hate, anger that can be turned to violence and no loyalty to the country
