Mubarak's interview to Al-Arabya Network {1-Holy Shiia}


Wow that's what the president of the greatest Arabi Country in the World made from Impact !!
Did you see the Giselle Khoury interview with President Hosni Mubarak ,the president of Egypt ,last night on both Al-Arabya Network and the first channel of the Egyptian National TV !? if you didn't you can go for the Arabya Network or you can read it from there . Of course on the National TV  I feel there was kind of censorship.
Now the Iraqi people ,government and all different groups in Iraq are angry from his statements last night ,It is achievement Mr.Mubarak made it as for the first time he made a real unity between the Iraqis in their deadly conflict
I will comment on the statements one by one
and Now he said that :
  1. The Loyalty of the Shiia in the Arab World is for Iran , and that the Shiia of Iraq are loyal to Iran as they are 65% of the population causing a huge problematic situation.
  2. There is on going civil war in Iraq .
  3. Saddam Hussien is only man who united the Iraqi people but for his foolishness he was involved  in to stupid wars with his neighbors.

Now suddenly as I said ,despite the Egyptian Television is ignoring what is going in Iraq , the Iraqi government and people are mad . Talbany,Gafry and Bagha Gi were standing angry and defending the loyalty of the Arab Shiia of Iraq and Now the internet is full of angry Iraqis from all races who are so angry for different reasons
No only in Iraq but in the Arab World ,the Shiia community is so angry , the Shiia members in Kuwait parliament didn't like these provoking statements about their loyalty
See the comments on these websites Ealph { An apologize is required,and El-Arabya {oh boy Kill him he is Egyptian !!"}

oh boy it is the second the Iraqi Shiia people become angry from Mubarak's statement, the first time from two years when he said that : It will be a diseaster if the Shiia ruled Iraq .
Now let me say something ,people I don't suspect the loyalty of any Arab Shiia but what is Mubarak said in this program from statements concerning Iraq except the part about the American forces 100% correct and I agree with him for the first time from very long time and before I will be accused of being a hypocrite to him ,well search through out my blog and you will know that I can be considered from the opposition but truth is truth
How come ? okay people it is a real fact that most the Shiia loyalty will be to Iran , to City of Kam ,to the great religious scholars there , people El-Sistany is an Iranian in the end , all those name from El-Mahdy army to whoever army there are with Iran in the End . People what prevents the Untied States from attacking Iran besides the Iranian Nuclear power and the Oil power is the Shiia in Iraq. The American army will be surrounded with a gulf of Shiia ,the real Persian Gulf , Shiia from Iraq ,Shiia from Kuwait and Shiia from Bahrain are ready to turn in to one hell of holy war to save the mother land . In fact I see that most Iraqi Shiia are more attracted to the religious bounding that the national Arabic bounding ,you could find An Iraqi shiia with national Arabic preference at the time of Shah Iran not Aya Allah Iran .
Iran is just like the Vatican , in fact their loyalty is for their clerics and this is really dangerous thing ,because Clerics in Shiia sect got a holy position and the Iranian example is the best proof
This is a true thing and normal human nature thing to join the one who shares my beliefs.
Second thing , Mr.Talbani ,the president of Iraq doesn't like the statement that there is a civil war in Iraq !! Excuse me Mr.Talbani how do you describe what is going in your country exactly ? on a daily base not less 50 people get killed !! this is a civil war
Third thing I hate to dictators like Saddam who killed lots of Egyptians but I am afraid that it is true that there was some kind of Stability in his rule , in the first 5 years of his rules before the Iranian-Iraqi war , yet I hate this kind of Stability that is built of fear and injustice
By the way some angry people on Elaph and Al-Arabya said that he attacked and insulted their holy shrines and holy doorsteps !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am not against the Iraqi Shiia as they saw too much from Saddam and I also see their loyalty for Iran is a natural thing "Me and my brother on my cousin and Me and my cousin on the Stranger"
In fact I don't see why Egypt got this bad relations with Iran ,already our real relations with the U.S is going from bad to worse

The Minorities Report : The Bahais

Yesterday the Egyptian Court made a historical verdict in the favor of the Bahai "Religion" followers in Egypt in Specific and the all the followers of the religions and sect other than the official divine religions {Islam,Christanity and Judism}
First Check the in Filbalad.com
Second ,What is the Bahai religion?
You can check here and there
or you can complete reading this tiny blog post
Bahai was first a sect from the Islam , founded by Bahaullah , a Noble Man from Tehran in Iran in the 19th Century , Just like the other sects in Islam especially the 12th group ,Bahaism is somehow influenced by the different civilisation and religions , They believe in one God and that God revealed himself to the people of the world through his messengers who include the following "Look to the names" : Ibraham "Ibrahim, the father of all divine Messengers,Krishna of<em> India Hundu faith</em>, Zoroaster Persia Zarathushtra fire worshiping religion , Moses , Buddha, Jesus, and Muhammad No need to explain the last four names as they are the messengers of the four main religions in the world now , so you see it is a combining cult or a religion , Bahaullah claimed that all of those names were manifestation of God and he himself was a manifest to the Lord on Earth. They claim to have 5 million followers in the world and that they are the most spread religion now ,I don't much about these rituals ,customs and traditions and so on.
What is interesting that their holy places are in Haifa/Akka in Isreal,former Palestine ,it is a complex shrine as I understand contains the bodies of their holy founders Bahuallha "He was in Iran ,what brought him to Haifa I don't know", the Bab and Abdul baha and for that reason since the sixities the Egyptian regime cancelled and prohibited all their activities in Egypt in year 1960 as it considered their Bahai world center where its followers should pilgrim to be in Isreal and so it could threat the Egyptian National Security
It was at the same time of Judas Witnesses famous case in Egypt , the Bahai got fame in Egypt after their arresting in 1960 especially the list of Bahais names contained a great artist in Egypt that is Bikar , already I remember my late grand father once told me about him that he was n't a muslim like the rest of us and that his religious believes are somehow strange as they worked together in Akhbar El-youm and Akhar Saa weekly magazine in its golden age ,I didn't understand then and he didn't explain more but now I understand
Also there is a famous Bahaai who all the world followed his news and his death "which became of the engimas of the Iraq war ,that's professor Kelly ,do you remember him !?
Anyway back to the Bahaai Minority conditions in Egypt
as you understand the regime thinks that they are danger on the national security as their religious holy place in Isreal "Not all the regime after all we got a Minister whose mother is Jew and we got excellent relations with the hebrew nation , yet when we speak about National security we are talking about other boards than the NDP and the Cabinet , we are talking about a silent very tall man whom I want to speak about his role in the minorities report again and again"
Also the Muslim community , the religious restrictive section in it doesn't like it as it consider it a movement against Islam , not Muslim cult as infidel muslim for their founder claimed the prophecy .
already they are not muslim and there is a great misconception between them , many think that they are from the Shiia 12 group while as you see they are shiia or muslim at all , I read that nosene in the MSN Space of some American Muslim young man who got this wrong information about the Islamic Cults
Now back to the historical verdict that opens the paradise door for Minorities not only The Bahais but others too and opens a hell door for religious Muslim and security
A Bahai couple in Egypt got a bad problem that for two years they couldn't registered themselves and their kids as Bahais ,the government presented in the interior minister and civilian registry ordered them to register themselves as Muslims if they want to have an identity in this country !!!!With this verdict that is already depends on the chapter in the Egyptian constitution that says that the Freedom of Belief is a right for Every Egyptian you can know see the word Bahai in their id and passport for the first time
My opinion , I will tell about it tomorrow ,that is enough for now I want to read Mubarak's interview with Gizelle Khoury and yes the minorities report is opened once again

Farewall Mohamed El-Magout

Last Night the famous syrian writer Mohamed El-Magout had passed away after long struggle against Cancer in Damscus ,Syria. Late Magout was 73 years old. I feel very sorry for his family and fans whom I consider myself as one . For those who don't know who is Mohamed El-Magout , I will tell you briefly who was this great man.
El-Magout is the famous writer ,talented one , wrote for threatre and cinema the most wonderful scripts , all about one thing ,the home ,the stolen home , the home .He was among the few who put in words the agony that the Arab world from the Alanatic ocean to the Persian gulf and described perfectly. The agony that All the Arabs were,are and God knows until when will be suffering from dictatorship.
Dictatorship and injustice were El-Magout enemies and that 's why many of his work is not available in many countries and few only know him from the young generation.
El-Magout came to fame when he and great Syrian Actor Doraid Laham presented a powerful duet in the 70s and 80s when they presented masterpieces like "Kassak ya Waten ,mom saw it in Doha" and the legendary political Movie El-Hodod"the borders", I guess you will know him from the later movie if you are an Arab
El-Hodod was speaking about the Home ,the Arabic and Arabic-Arabic affairs in a comic way
This duet reminds me with the duet that was between Lanin El-Ramli and Mohamed Sobhi in Egypt.
El-Magout was widower who devoted his life after his wife's death to his two daughters , also one of the unique things about his life is that he began to become famous in Syria after publishing his own diaries in El-Maza Jail "a legendary Jail in Syria , a terrible one which I think Abu-garib is much better ,you see in Abu-garib you got humilitated by a foreigner but in El-Maza you got humiliated by your own home brother , you probably surprise to know that El-Magout wrote his diaries on the cover of the cigarettes and hided in his under wall so no one can catch it.
May God bless his soul this old man from El-Sham

Politics : The dirty game

Really the politics is a dirty games the one who wants to play it must understand its rules very well and must know when to retire in the right time "The Spanish provbe: The Good Matador knows when to leave the arena"

I remember this when I read the sorrowful news of Nomaan Gomaa ,the ex-head of the Wafad party and ex-presidential candidate who took the votes of my family and friends who got the voting id in the last 2005 presidential elections.
I remember this when I read the reports of in different Newspapers today all of them are the opposition newspapers like El-Arabi the Nasseri and El-Ossbo weekly "also Nasseri"
It turned out that the conflict in the Wafad party is simply another battlefield between the old and new guards in NDP ,the ruler party in Egypt !!
You see we all know in Egypt that except for the MB ,Kafya ,El-gad at Ayman Noor's era and Some Nasseri "despite they still live in another age " all parties are just like supporting actors for the leading and sole actor in the political stage in Egypt , yet El-Wafad with his historical weight and importance plus his past leaders from Sarg El-din Family gave him some how strength against the NDP in fact I do remember that Ayman Noor was a Wafa Member before leaving the party ,also Mona Makram Abid was a Wafad member , in fact I believe the Wafad began to become another party in the Shadow after the death of Yassin Sarg El-Din ,despite he was n't the head after his uncle death as Gomaa became the head as you all know

Now after the expected Fiasco in the last presidential elections , the majority of El-Wafad decided to change its leader as we were told and as I believe that the majority of the members believed so , as it turned out it is reflection of the conflict between the new guards headed by GM and the old guards headed by Safwat El-Sherif you see
now the minister of Agriculture in Egypt is Mr. something Abaza "by the way this fellow is a faculty of Agriculture graduate but Economics and Political Science ,Cairo University ,Same class of My Aunt :)" , now Mr. Abaza who is a memebr in the NDP , is the brother of Mr.Mahmoud Abaza , the leader of the front against Mr.Gomaa , Now NDP Abaza is a member from the New guards Group headed by Mr.GM
on the other hand ol' Dr.Nomaan Go is a friend for Mr. Safwat El-Sherif { Ex-officer with great Scandal in the 60s similar to John Profumo's in UK, Ex-Minister of Information for over 24 years and Now he is head of the Senates and head of the parties Committes } who is the leader of the old guards in the NDP , in fact some say that El-Sherif was behind Gomaa's decision to run for presidency , a decision which even Gomaa's wife Dr.Salwa and his two daughter "Iman Gomaa, the ex-tv presenter specialized in Political programs in ART Network" stood against !!
This friendship is not a friendship by its real meaning as in politics there is nothing called so , it is more like alliance , El-Sherif doesn't like what happened to him from the new guards of GM and GM himself ,so despite being another member in the same regime El-Sherif won't hate to see some public opposition against the plans concerning GM's inheritance for daddy's throne , and Gomaa was and is still against the inheritance of the Egyptian throne to GM , it is not obvious yet
but wait Now Abaza 's front in El-Wafad is with the new guards in NDP and they don't have a real problem with GM being the next president to Egypt {Heavens forbid }
so yo see now how things go
already if you follow the sequence of the events in El-Wafad ,you will find that El-Sherif somehow stood beside Nomaan Goma
is n't a dirty game ,this politics game !?

Gomaa is a bad player who listens to anyone and believe it or not I think now that Ahmed Nasser is a foe not a friend of him as Now Goma is guilty by first degree and ex-dean of Faculty of Law will join Ayman Noor in the Prison not as a political prisoner but as a criminal one

El-Wafad Crisis and Tragedy "A Far perespective"

I read the newspapers "El-Wafad Mainly" and agreed on the El-sharq Elawast headline today also the news sites Like Filbalad ,Masrawy and Elaph {The first had a better coverage then the other two}and I was so happy and sad at the same time when I knew Gomaa ,Nassar and their thugs were arrested and are facing charges of Murder, destruction of properties ..etc , it is sad thing as I said earlier today that a man like Gomaa ,the ex-dean of the Law School "Cairo University " an old wafad member thinks in this barbaric way .

and here what I think

I am sure 100% that the regime presented in the government had a great role in this crisis , and you can sense this yesterday for more than 12 hours thugs occupied the wonderful palace "headquarter of El-Wafad" burned it...etc and no single police officer came !!23 person were injured and only the govermental presence was represented by the ambulances that took the injured !! Now go back in history to review what happened in El-Wafad , the same thing that happened to El-Gad but of course in different terms surely Fahkry Abd El-Noor is not like Reda Ragab and of course Ayman Noor is not like Nomaan Gomaa.
What is happening is simply a punishment and preventation from the regime to all major political players in Egypt , a punishment for all those dared to go for the presidential elections 2005 against president ,especailly those who had a real presidential programs and real popluraity in the Egyptian street and those I mean Ayman Noor and Nomaan Gomaa , preventation for any opposition in the future against their plans to inherit the rule of Egypt to Gamal Mubarak {which Now I believe the words of Mr.Hassien Haikal that this will happen this year more than any time } , Now in the Egyptian street there is some talk that Gamal Mubarak is better than anyone we don't know and also look to his potential rivals "Noor and Gomaa " both criminals "I swear that I heard some of this rubbish talk and even not now but at the time of the elections.
I remember someone who once told me that there is no hope for a real democratic change in Egypt with the same ol' faces and new faces like Gomaa and Noor because simply they are the product of this regime and previous regimes in along period of more than 54 years, this is really true ,Gomaa proved to be a dictator who refuses to let it go and listen to the majority of his party and this is what the government wants to prove to the people , there is no difference between the NDP and other parties they are all the same ,so take the ol' one you know
Gomaa appears to me an old man that can be deceived easily as I remember he is the first from the opposition front who broke the agreement to boycott the presidential elections and run for the presidency and it also appears to me that he listened to the Ahmed Nassar "a Lawyer and MB known for using thugs and force" , I don't know how come a man like Gomaa , with his history and family ,his wife is one of the most famous professors in The faculty of Economics and Political sciences at Cairo University ,I guess her Name is Salwa, she used to teach to my Aunt there ,and my Aunt still admires her so much ,I can't describe my disappointment , already I am disappointed since he refused to leave the leadership of the party.
This crisis opens a door to an important problem in our culture that is the concept of Leadership , unfortunately there is a mix between Leadership ,Godhod and dictatorship not only in Egypt but in the Arab World.

Yes I know I got this big consiracy theory mind but look to the whole image , it is not about El-Wafad or El-Gad ,it is about the fight of the government against all the Liberal parties in Egypt ,it is from the benefit of the government that religious groups like Muslim Brothers to be there ,so it can scare the west with , for many years now El-Wasat party , an Islamic Liberal party , made by an Ex-members of Muslim Brothers because simply the word Liberal scares the regime , Liberal means Democracy ,and Islamic means the support of the majority of the Egyptian street ,for that the party can't take the approval of the Parties committe for many years until yesterday ,where it was refused at the same time where the parent of the Liberal



p.s " I always finded it silly and unacceptabe when the daughter of the head of El-Wafad party is a Nasseri

Finding Ragab and April Fool

For the Second Week ,Ahmed Ragab didn't write a single letter in Akhbar El-Youm Weekly
I don't know but I think he is giving a good lesson For Momtaz El-Kot "Cat" bad cat really
Already I didn't read the Akhbar El-Weekly yesterday as usual after finding Ragab's absence , it is enough for me to find the first bold headlines are "important statement by president Mubarak exclusively to Momtaz El-Kot "

I don't know what El-Kot "Cat" thinks of himself , a stupid headline for a stupid interview
by the way I don't believe a word in this interview as It was the April the 1st yesterday so it is an April Fool :)

El-wafad Tradegy "Zaad Zaglol tears"

It is sad thing that happened today for one of the oldest and greatest parties in the Arab World

Hussein Abd El-Ghani ,the Al-jazeera correspendent





What happened today in El-wafad party was a complete tragedy , a shock to all its supporters and admirers like me , it is a blow not only for El-wafad but for the political liberal life in Egypt

Yes I know that we don't have really this political liberal life as other Arab countries but El-Wafad was our hope along with other parties and movements like Kafya, MB,El-Gad and Nasri "sorry if I forgot one"

It is a tragedy for the lovers of the Egyptian political history like me when El-Wafad with its great achievements in our modern history and our struggle whether at the time of the British occupation or the struggle against Kings and after them the free officers

It is a tragedy when I hear that Photos of great Men like Saad Zaglol and Mustafa El-Nahas by thugs of Ahmed Nasr !!

It is a tragedy when the Ex-dean of the most important Schools which presented to the not only the Arab world but the whole World that is The Faculty of Law ,Cairo University , uses this barbaric technique to get the back the control of the party

Tomorrow I will speak about what happened today as I need to know more information about the mess ,I just can't believe that a man like Nomaan Goma to act like this

Tonight I know that Saad Zaglol is rested in his tomb
