Do Not Blame The Jews, Blame Yourself
2009-09-23 22:39:00 Farouk Hosni is back and he is whining like a lady on the conspiracies made by the Jews of the world against him as Egyptian, Arab,Muslim !! It was clear by the end of the competition that there was a conspiracy against me There are a group of the world's Jews who had a major influence in the elections who were a serious threat to Egypt taking this position !! Strangely from two weeks ago he was trying to show the world that he is the best friend the Jews have ever got , it is ironic , is not it !!?? Now Farouk Hosni is turned in to a national hero who lost because of the west and the Jewish lobby , I could not believe myself to find a number of the so-called nationalist writers and intellectuals standing behind him against this plot even the Muslim brotherhood !!?? I understand their position from Zionism but I can?t understand their position from Hosni who has been always accused to be pro-Israeli and Pro-western not to mention his long history in the Mubarak r...
Breaking News : Farouk Hosni Lost The Elections
2009-09-22 23:02:00 Yes boys and girls Farouk Hosni has lost the UNESCO elections in front of Bulgarian Irina Bokova who has become the first woman to head the international organization :) Farouk got 27 votes and Irina got 30 in the final fifth vote. Now there is uncertain news that they busted some member in the Egyptian delegation trying to bribe the delegates , the sum they are speaking about is $50,000 !! Now I wonder if Farouk Hosni will be a man of his word and resigns as he promised to do or he will resign and Mubarak will not accept it as usual or he won?t resign and stays in his position !! Man I am so happy but I am sad on that money spent on his campaign and the humiliation and comprises Egypt had to pay all those month to win the minds and hearts of the United States and Israel. Of course he will return and keep bitching about how biased the UNESCO committee is to stand with an European woman and not with an Egyptian Arab Muslim man and surely the official media will go on with him compl...
A Tie For Hosni
2009-09-22 15:43:00 Now it is either Egyptian ?unfortunately? Farouk Hosni and Bulgarian Irina Bokova after their tie in yesterday?s fourth round in UNESCO elections for 29-29 votes. The last 48 hours were tense for Hosni , after all what he got 4 votes compared to Bokova who got 16 votes. The United States and France for sure are standing behind her along with the European countries that believe Hosni does not deserve this important cultural position. The international press continues its attack on Hosni who always felt that the national press was attacking him , let him taste the really media attack is , French Le Monde attacked him and NY Times introduced a new disturbing unknown fact to the Western reader about Hosni : While being the Egyptian cultural attaché in Rome, he helped to organize the escape from Italy in 1985 of the hijackers of the Italian cruise ship Achille Lauro !! This fact was taken from an Elaph?s website article that I can?t determine whether it is with or agains...
Why Do I Smell A Conspiracy In This !!??
2009-09-22 13:30:00 Yesterday I was shocked to find a photo in Al Dostor newspaper?s first page for kids inside the rare birds cage in the Giza Zoo !! One of these kids was carrying a very rare peacock in his hand as if he was holding a chicken or something !! Terrible photos and terrible start for the morning after being sick for the past 2 day !! The report spoke also about the poor salaries of the guards who can?t protect the cages from similar attacks , after all they take only about LE 240 monthly /LE 8 per day ? $44 per month/$1.45 per day !!? , how will they protect the cages !!?? The newspaper goes today with its reports on that black day in the Zoo with experts warning that the day will come and we will find lions roaming in our streets !!?? Not to mention the diseases the animals they will transfer !! Strangely the Zoo had much more animals in the past and they did not transfer any disease to anyone !!?? Honestly I do not know why I feel or I smell a conspiracy theory in this scand...
Do Not Blame It On The Pigs
2009-09-22 10:30:00 Michael Slackman has decided that the latest garbage problem in Egypt is the result of Mubarak?s decision to kill all the pigs despite the direct reason ?which he mentioned in his report in a fast reference if I may say" is the disagreement between the foreign garbage companies and the governorates. Just put things straight here I would to mention some points : The main reason of this problem is the disagreement between the foreign garbage companies with the governorates. Another main reason to be honest is how our government is dealing with the crisis, if the government wants really to solve this problem ,it could do ; after all when Gamal Mubarak visited Agouza, the streets had been cleaned for him and I saw it by my own eyes !! Sometimes this regime like previous regimes creates crisis for its own people to make them busy from things that really matters. Not all the pigs were killed , this is a fact Mr.Slackman forgot to mention , for some reason suddenly the decision was froz...
Laila Abdel Salam Speaks For The First Time on TV
2009-09-22 10:12:00 Honestly I wish that Mona El-Shazely did that interview with Laila Abdel aka the Real Samia Fahmy who is currently working in Al Ahrar newspaper. Laila Abdel Salam speaks with Amr Adib along Ambassador Dr.Rafaat El-Ansari who had his share in the real spies war. Ambassador El-Ansari has very interesting story which insh Allah will be featured in Egyptian Chronicles after my recovery ;) She revealed more information about her story which is simple and so short , her trip in Italy , it only took about a month or even less to arrest Mario , the Spy of Israel in Egypt , yes he was not in Rome but in Egypt. By the way here is Laila in early 1970s, she looked like Nahed El-Sharif more than Menna Shalby if I may say.
The Next Minister Of Culture Will Be?
2009-09-21 18:44:00 There are too much speculations about who the next minister of culture will be if heavens forbid Farouk Hosni wins the UNESCO elections and even if he does not win , the sources of Egyptian Chronicles say that he may resign for real this time. I got three names and three different scenarios related to each other somehow : Mohamed Salmaway : The current editor of Chief of Al Ahram Hebdo and the heads of the writers? union , the Orientation of the ministry won?t be different than Honsi?s time. ?It is something well known? Dr. Zahi Hawas : He will not head the ministry of culture but the newly found ministry of antiquities , there are rumors that either the ministry of culture will be cancelled and replaced by the supreme council of Culture or it will continue as it is either with Salmaway or someone else. Dr. Mohamed Kamal : I told you that the famous NDP figure is a candidate for a ministerial position before !! Gamal Mubarak?s aide will surely change the policies...
The Key To Qaddafi?s Personality
2009-09-21 13:18:00 I know that I am lazy and I should have written this post from couple of weeks ago when the Fath so called Revolution 40th celebrations were the talk of world after all it was not usual to see all those guests especially from the west celebrating with Qaddafi , the same man they fought for 40 years. 40 Years had passed and the Libyan policies have been changing in the same way the moods of Qaddafi have been, from socialism to capitalism, from East to West , from Arab nationalism to African nationalism, from a colonel who downed a monarchy to the king of kings of Africa. Of course in this year?s celebration the main focus Qaddafi as it has always been in the past 40 years in Libya. To understand the key of this man?s personality who many consider mad , we must go back to history but I must tell you that this an is not mad as you may think. It was well known and documented that when Qaddafi led his coup against the As-Senussi Royal Family in 1969 President Nasser congratulated th...
She Needs Your Prayers
2009-09-21 13:04:00 Former Princess Ferial Farouk is currently in a critical condition in Switzerland , she needs our prayers now so much more than any time. I know for sometime now that she fought cancer for a while in her life where she conquered it with a very high price : part of her digestive system was removed :( . For some reason it was not declared ; may be because she considered something personal and I respected this decision from her side . Yet unfortunately it seems that in the past few weeks the cancer has returned back in vengeance. She has returned back to her simple home in Switzerland after being in the hospital , she is currently 24/7 medical surveillance. The former princess had visited Egypt earlier this year and made an interview with Ahmed El-Muslamany which I am currently looking for to post here. Ferial Farouk needs your prayers now , this woman had seen a lot and remember she went and other Republican princesses came and enjoyed the wealth of this country more than any ...
Farouk Hosni Official Website

Ah and his terrible , really terrible paintings !! Strangely he did not include that criticism in his website. Did he mention that he used to spy on Egyptians and Arabs in 1970s among his achievement ??

Another Blow To Independence Judicial System Movement in Egypt
2009-09-20 13:51:00 I am still shocked and I can?t understand or classify what has happed except that it is another blow to the independence of the Judicial system movement in Egypt : The famous and honorable Judge Mahmoud El-Hadiry has resigned from his position as the vice head of the cassation court !! Judge El-Hadiry known for his support to the independence of Judicial system movement in Egypt is also the head of the Judges? club in Alexandria. This resignation comes after 46 years of working in the judicial system in Egypt , 20 years of them were in the cassation court ,Egypt?s finest and highest court !! The main reason behind this sudden resignation is the objection on the intervention of the regime in the judicial system !! I respect this reason very much but with my all due admiration to the honorable ex-judge move ,the regime will welcome this resignation so much because it does not want these types of judges working in the current system , men like El-Hadiry are like obstacles i...
Queen Fatimah of Libya
2009-09-20 11:43:00 For the first time since a very long time Queen Fatimah of Libya , the last living Queen from the Senussi dynasty was the subject of an Arabic newspaper report . Of course I understand why the Saudi owned Pan Arab newspaper Al Sharq Al Awsat made a report about the 91 years old Queen in exile in the same Qaddafi was celebrating the 40 anniversary of his co-called revolution which is a military coup to be accurate. Queen Fatimah has been living in exile in Cairo since the revolution in 1969 , currently the old Queen is in hospital , hopefully she will get well. I wish time will come and she will see the day her country without Al-Qaddafi. The former Queen has won recently a lawsuit against the State in Libya to restore her old palace in some Libyan city , I do not know if it were Benghazi or Tripoli but I know that currently this palace is the new HQ of the British Embassy in Libya if I were not mistaken. Here is a photo taken for her from several years ago along with an adv...
Follow Up : 2 Other Votes
2009-09-20 03:13:00 Farouk Hosni managed to score other 2 votes in the past 24 hours and thus he secured 25 votes in the UNESCO race , he has still got 5 votes to become the UNESCO Director general. He is a lucky man because the elections will continue on Monday so technically he has got 48 hours to use his charm to win the hearts and minds of another 5 countries ?Hopefully he won?t insh Allah, Say Amen? By the way I would to share with you this video taken for the French Minister of Foreign affairs Bernard Kouchner in an interview with senior Journalist Jean-Pierre ElKabbach about the candidacy of Farouk Hosni. One part of the interview is very interview where ElKabbach asks Kouchner if Hosni was a respectable man and Kouchner pauses for awhile before saying ?He is a candidate?

Porto Aswan : The Regime?s Response To Nubian Demands !!
2009-09-18 11:52:00 I found the news circulating around ?Porto Aswan? very interesting if we consider the timing, coming right after the historical visit of Gamal Mubarak to Nuba where he advised the people there ?Not to live in the past? hinting out that they won?t return to the land they want to return to for years ?Porto Aswan? is said to be a huge touristic project planned in Aswan by tourism tycoon Mansour Amer to join his ?Porto World? empire in Egypt and in the Arab world ?He is building one in Syria?. I do not need to elaborate how the historical , social and environmental nature of Aswan can?t have such huge touristic project. The news is causing huge anger in Egypt especially in Aswan , the people there are extremely angry and I will summarize their anger in what Mohamed Mounir has said : ?I pull the rocks of the great pyramid if the government approves that project? It is not only them but anyone who loves this country will refuse this project which unfortunately is not a rumor becaus...
Do Not Stone Her Alone
2009-09-18 11:47:00 Dr. Hala Mustafa, the chief in editor of ?Democracy? magazine is facing an investigation in the journalists syndication and this is just the start ; what did Dr. Hala do ?? She hosted the Israeli ambassador in Cairo Shalom Cohen in some lecture in Al Ahram center for political and strategic studies. According to the laws of the syndication , she did something wrong as the laws of the journalists syndication are clear : No normalization with Israel , No Israeli officials in the Egyptian newspapers HQs. But was she the first Egyptian journalist to do such huge sin ?? Was she the first Al Ahram journalist to do host Israeli officials in the Al Ahram building ?? I do not think so , Dr. Abdel Manam Said who has headed Al Ahram recently is from the most famous pro-normalization with Israel and from the Copenhagen group with late Lotfy El-Kholly. Al Ahram administration says the Ambassador came to the building without its permission despite the fact I believe to host such heavy gue...

Yes President Mubarak made a so-called surprise visit to Carrefour store in Maadi to check on the conditions of the markets and internal trade in Egypt !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I swear this is not a joke , he paid Carrefour a visit to check on the citizens and the conditions of the consumer markets in Egypt , again I repeat !! I will not joke about it because already since the news found its way online and the jokes have been pouring like a flood , you do not mess with Egyptian people . I will just say one thing , for those advisers of Mubarak ,for that entourage around him : Stop misguiding the old man because when he goes down , you will go down with him !! Mubarak did not ask them to go Carrefour by himself , he did not know Carrefour , he knew nothing despite they want him to look like as if he knew every ...

He is from those workers known in Egypt as ?Fa?ala?. Anyhow what is unique about this worker and deserved to be mentioned in the newspaper is that he is originally teacher , French language teacher who was graduated from university of Asuit !! Oh oui a university graduate !! He worked for a while as a teacher then left teaching because it was not that profitable and enough for decent life , it seems that now the hard life of independent construction worker is better !!

This slideshow will show you how beautiful the old houses of Rosetta are and how the Tawakitty house can be so beautiful too if the ministry of culture remembers it. Some people will consider this an achievement of Farouk Hosni and I tell them , well this is the least thing he can do , already this is his job to look after our national heritage ,the heritage which has been stolen , attacked and destroyed for the past 20 years.

Egypt: Muslim Sets Fire to Christian Man, Murders His Father
2009-03-09 14:34:00 A Muslim man set fire to a Coptic young man, murdered his father and wounded his younger brother, after it was rumored that the young Copt allegedly had a relationship with the Muslim man's sister.The events took place in the small village of "Dmas" Meet-Ghamr, after a rumor spread around of a relationship between the 25-year-old Copt Shihata Sabri, and the sister of a Muslim man named Yasser Ahmed Qasim.Yasser went to Coptic Shehata, holding a gasoline canister, poured it over him and set him on fire, as bystanders looked on in horror. The young Copt threw himself into the adjacent canal to try to put out the flames from his burning body. The fire left burns all over his body, leading to his death.Following this incident, people in the village rallied and when the 60-years-old Sabri Shehata, father of the Coptic victim arrived, he was attacked by a group of Muslims stabbing him with knives and daggers; one stab penetrated his back to come out of his abdomen below the rib cage, res...
Constellations of ancient Egypt
2009-01-26 01:54:00 In the last post I talked about the border line between two very old empires, I probably left you a bit ‘hanging’ in regards, to… so much more... *heh* well this is because it is not possible for anyone to explain something in short, especially not at the levels of how the ancient Egyptian worked. There is even clear evidence that the constellations changed in ancient Egypt.Let me present you with a picture from Sety I tomb:Sety the First belongs to the 19 Dynasty, which were around 1200 B.C. He was not a king by blood (royal blood),but he indeed was a true king of his time. This image portrays some of the constellation of ancient Egypt, and how they choose to see them. The harmony which one can see everywhere in their writing and images, seem to be less preferred when it comes to this part of the tomb. Their placement seems as important as the images themselves. I completely understand why some descendants thought this to be a devils work, especially considering how the creat...

The Development of Agriculture in Africa
2008-10-09 07:46:00 Updated October 8:Hang out long enough on White nationalist fora, and after a while you will be amazed at how many White racists actually believe that Black Africans were stone age people who had no metalworking, no agriculture and no civilization of any sort by the time the Europeans contacted them. It's true that Africa is not known for its incredible cultural achievements. But it wasn't exactly a complete backwater either. The White nationalist line that Africans were a Paleolithic people with only stone implements and no agriculture is surprisingly widespread. Too bad that it is horribly wrong.First of all, agriculture comes to the Sahel as early as 9000 BC. It comes to West Africa around the same time. Later it goes to Southern and Eastern Africa. The "niggers* are too stupid to grow food" line, appalling in its stupidity, continues to retain a lot of currency. Screw that. Africans have been growing food for 1000's of years, Jesus Christ.The latest permutation has to do with...

2008-06-24 01:13:00 Just everyone is concerned with Iran?s rising influence in the Middle East. Israel, the United States, Egypt, and Russia protest what they see as Iranian incursion on their turf. Russia and America are in the double binge: Iran acts both in the Middle East and in their backyards, Central Asia and Venezuela, respectively. For Egypt, ...

World environment day
2008-06-10 22:30:00 we forgot about this important day in Egypt , originally it is on the 5th of June according to the UN but of course you may know that from this blog that many Egyptians associate this day with our worst military defeat in the modern history. Nevertheless it is not too late to celebrate especially that for the first time in Egypt we feel that people the real people began to have great awareness about environment. Thanks to Agrium , seriously those greedy businessmen Canadians opened the Egyptian people?s eyes especially in the Governates on the hazards of industrial and chemical factories.Now Agrium is stuck in Damietta and can?t go anywhere and has nothing to do except in my humble opinion to close the factory and move back home. Already all the Governates are refusing to host this factory. There are another two Agrium alike cases, may be there are not under the spot light like Damitta?s Agrium for now but they will sooner or later. The first is a factory owned by an Indian Company ...
Follow Up : The Al-Burullus City
2008-06-10 19:48:00 Here is quick info about Al-Burullus City ,You know that there were violent clashes between the citizens and the police , still the city deserves more attention. As almost every City and place in Egypt , it has got real long history ,I will try to summarize it in the few minutes Al-Burullus is a coastal city,well it is actually a peninsula , the Mediterranean sea is in its north and the lake of Al-Burullus is in its south. The city of Al-Burullus itself is historical ,It is named after the Al Burullus lake and the fortress of Salah El-Din known as ?the tower or Al Borg? , officially it is ?Borg Al-Burullus? still it is known as ?Al-Burullus? The city has got one of the original light houses that Khedive Ismail had built in 1869. There is also a from the time of Ahmed Orabi and his battle against the British invasion in the 19th century. It has its own battle in 1956 against the French invaders on the 4th of November which is its national day , the famous Battle of Jules Jamal and...
Follow Up : Al Burullus revolution.
2008-06-09 22:04:00 First of all I want to clarify something , yes Kafr El-Sheikh has a great MB presence but they do not have any relation from near or far with the uprising , with the mini revolution of the Al Burullus people. Already Al Burullus people acted alone with no pre-organizing movement and this is why it is dangerous from the security of point of view . If it were the MB or the leftists then it would be easily to control but this sudden emotional rebel moves make the regime scared to death. This is stupid regime which does not learn from its mistakes , it forgot that simple fishermen can be very angry and their anger of those outcasted forgotten people can harm all Egypt ,especially rich Egypt that goes to the north Coast and already they saw it last July in the Water protests. Now here is a theory the regime acted so ugly and violently with the people of Al Burullus ?they did not arrest them last year? because they wanted to teach them a lesson , it is not a game to cut or block the ... |
