#Monazarat : The Day after the Presidential Debate
2012-05-11 22:08:00 These are my comments and thoughts about Egypt?s presidential candidates TV debate on air that was aired yesterday in joint broadcast on ONTV and DreamTV for 90 minutes. Just like the debate I divided them on to two parts. Now here is the complete debate itself for those interested in watching the whole thing again. Here is my live coverage for the debate in English.It is full of grammatical and spelling mistakes. Here are also the transcript of the debate?s rounds 1 and 2 in English by follow blogger Mostafa Hussein. The Real winner is the People There is something different in the air without doubt , there is something different indeed because from two years ago nobody has ever imagined that millions of Egyptians would stay up late to watch for 90 minutes a long presidential elections debate between two popular presidential candidates Abdel Moneim Abu El Fotoh and Amr Moussa for the first time in their Republic political history. Today the first question you ask your fr...

Breaking : Administrative court suspends Presidential elections !!!!

According from what I understand the administrative court saw that we can?t have presidential elections. Updated #1 : According to MENA this court ruling was taken because the one that should call the voters for elections is SCAF instead the Supreme presidential elections committee ?SPEC?. The government has the right to appeal the court rule tomorrow.

And France has got a new president called #Hollande
2012-05-07 00:37:00 Dear Egyptian chronicles readers meet France?s new president Françoise Hollande , the second socialist president to rule France after Francoise Mitterrand President Hollande of France The 24th President of France is a socialist and he won in the runoff of the French presidential elections by 51.9% of the votes. Of course I will not deny that I am happy that Sarkozy has lost the elections , the dear friend of Mubarak. What I care is now the Egyptian French Relations post revolution in time of new presidents , not only a new president as insh Allah hopefully we will have a new president in 3 months. We are speaking about economic relations , political relations as well military relations aside from cultural relations. We used to have good relations with Mitterrand so I wonder how it will be the relations not only with Hollande but with Mr. X who will become Egypt?s fifth president insh Allah. Now this is a fact that the Egyptian national TV announced that Hollande won before h...
Is not this conflict of Interest ?
2012-05-06 18:59:00 Dr. Mohamed Morsy , the official presidential candidate of Muslim brotherhood in the presidential race and the leader of the Freedom and Justice Party has got two children that were born in California , United States. According to all sources his children got the American citizenship. Now Morsy is not the only one to have children or grandchildren with American citizenship because I think that Amr Moussa?s grandson is also a British citizen as his father Ahmed Ashraf Marwan got the British citizenship and his daughter lived in UK during their marriage. ?They divorced later and Hania Moussa lives in Egypt? There is nothing in the current presidential elections law that speaks about the presidential candidates? offspring nationality but one must wonder about their loyalty and the conflict of interest here especially when it comes to Morsy?s children and grandchildren as we are dealing with the American Egyptian very critical and complicated relationships here. It is not about racis...

The ?Final? Friday : The end of What exactly !??
2012-05-04 20:55:00 I do not know who really chooses the names of ?Friday Protests? , it is another mystery of the mysteries of the Arab Spring but one thing of sure whoever chose the name of this Friday?s protest in Egypt is really stupid. Today?s Friday protest is called ? The Final Friday? and Please do not ask me what end and whose end we are speaking about here because it is so painful. Today there are two many events , a million man protest in Tahrir square and a revolutionary march heading to Abassiya square and MOD square. I do not know what the aims and goals of these protests for real to be honest aside from rejecting and condemning the brutal attack on the protester and their cold blood murder.

Trainwreck of Thought?..
2012-04-24 22:10:00 By: J Robert Giles @JRobertGiles ?Never tell people how to do things. Tell them what to do and they will surprise you with their ingenuity.? - General George S. Patton Many of you are still reeling from the blistering defeat handed to the Buffett Rule last week and I will try to be sensitive as I dance around your ridiculous feelings but the hypocrisy of the defeated bill shouldn?t go without broadcast simply because a few liberals might suffer more than their fair share of discomfort. No longer will we, as conservatives, sit back and let the liberals retreat into the comforting arms of their brethren when confronted with the defeat of their ideological offerings. The Buffett Rule was soundly defeated for several reasons but first, it?s important to know what the rule, had it been enacted, would have accomplished. I?m not talking about the kind of back-pedaling knowledge that comes from constant historical rewriting. That kind of knowledge informs the liberal mind and it ha...

The man who does not speak much yet wants presidency
2012-04-04 22:57:00 Who is Khairat El Shater ? A question that many Egyptians from outside Muslim brotherhood are asking themselves now especially that he is going to run for presidency representing Egypt's most organized power. Of course the loyal MB members will not believe that someone in Nubia or in Sinia or in New Valley does not know their savior , Egypt's 21st century Joseph !!! Unlike other leading members of the brotherhood and those members authorized to speak to the media , El Shater is considered very media shy in a way that reminds me Ironically with Omar Soliman. El Shater made about three interviews if I am not mistaken. ?El Shater?s interview with Mahmoud Saad in Egyptian TV, Ahmed Mansour in Al Jazeera, Mona El Shazly in Dream TV ? When the Muslim brotherhood announced that it chose him as a candidate , El Shater did not show up in the press conference held at the MB HQ. Mohamed Badie , the supreme guide of MB and the Mohamed Morsi , the leader of Freedom and Justice were the ...

The citizenship of the Sheikh?s mom : Was she American or not ?
2012-04-02 11:57:00 My late mother had only a US Green Card while my sister has got a US passport because she lives in the United States. Sheikh Hazem Abu Ismail said so in an official statement published in his official campaign FB page on Sunday?s evening. Strangely this comes after one week of a complete denial that his late mom ?Mrs. Nawal Abdel Aziz? got any foreign passport. There have been rumors and reports that the mother of the powerful Islamist presidential had got an American citizenship and thus he will not be qualified for presidency. That strong rumor is enforced by several press reports claiming that the late lady entered the country in on 16 August 2009 coming from Germany with American passport and that the number of that passport is ?500611598?. This is a security way of leaking , why now , why they had to wait all that time , we are all wondering.

Can El Shater run for presidency from health point of view ?
2012-04-02 08:46:00 Can Khairat El Shater run for presidency of Egypt from health point of view ? A question that pumped in my mind through out the day after hear I remember very good that the family of Khairat El Shater plead through the time of Mubarak that the man?s health was deteriorating especially that he had huge heart and diabetic problems as well blood pressure problems. I remember Amnesty International and international human right organizations even addressed this matter. In 2007 he got that terrible infection in his leg and his family feared that it would be amputated. In 2008 he suffered from defected coronary artery and obstructed artery but received treatment after terrible agony. In fact the man was released from jail on health ground in 2011 so did he recover in one year and is ready to rule Egypt in a very critical time as simply as that !!? God knows how many times Essam Sharaf , our former PM had to transfer to hospital because of exhaustion in the past year so I hate to imagine...

Egyptian Presidential Elections :The Egyptian Christians? vote
2012-03-31 15:28:00 To whom shall the Egyptian Christians grant their votes in the presidential elections in 2012 ?? Late Pope Shenouda with Gamal Mubarak in 2009 In the past the Egyptian Orthodox Coptic Church used to support the Mubarak regime and used to tell the Coptic Christians to vote for Mubarak and even to vote for Gamal Mubarak for fear of Islamist take over. The Church does not only have to choose a presidential candidate to endorse or even to recommend but it also has to elect a new Pope in order to lead the Church in this upcoming new era and to deal with upcoming new president and new constitution. There was already leak from the orthodox church following the death of Pope Shenouda claiming the Church will be elected after the presidential elections. This means that the Church will choose its Pope based on the new president of Egypt as in the end the new Pope will deal with the new president so it will depend on the character of the new president. The Church managed to create this re...

Then despite he did not announce that he will run we find his unofficial presidential candidacy support campaign had held a press conference in some Cairo where the famous 1980s stand up comedian Hammada Sultan announced his endorsement to the former VP.
