I’m GUILTY

I don’t know how to start a post about the miserable situation Egyptian Christians face in Egypt.
I decided to start with my own experience- couple situations from many.
I’m a lucky person as I always learn from experiences I’m in it but luck and only luck, some of those experiences happened to me because and just because my name- full name- work as well as name for Christian Egyptian-my class mate who is Christian shares with me my all name.

I still remember first time I hear there are some people not Muslims, it was surprise I knew about it when I was 11 years old, yes 11 years old for real, I born in an Arab country in a city non Muslims can’t live in it and then back to Egypt and start going to school and for ironic luck because of my name they put me in Christian class!

I don’t go to church I go to mosque, that was my answer for first bible class, that was when the teacher wanted to know who is catholic , orthodox and protestant ,the surprise wasn’t so much for the teacher as the one he got from TONY my friend in that class in public school in Alexandria Egypt, tony said I’m a JEW! The teacher said are you kidding me? TONY answered no for real , the teacher left the class for while and when he back he decided to ask me and tony to leave the class in bible classes! That how I become friend with TONY.

It needs a whole post or more to talk about the world I seen through TONY.

I spent 2 years in that class with Christians knew about their believes, about their holydays and had friendship with some, and be hated from all other students in school as they do!

When I apply to my id it took too long time and every time I went to receive it. It wasn’t done yet so I asked my uncle who is police officer in another city to find if he has friends in my area to help me get it fast, he had a friend, police officer who happen to be Christian , when he ask for my ID it come to his office in few minutes with religion CHRISTIAN!
He knew I’m not and ask to fix it and told me that why it took long time then, they ignore you.

Years go fast , I grew , finished college and start my first job far away from my city, from very north of Egypt to last alive point in south of Egypt, in my first day they make me share room with one of few Christians working there while the owner of that hotel is Christian!

After weeks I figured out why everyone is so not normal with me, because they thought I’m Christian, it was funny and sad situation that when one guy see me coming out of the mosque in Friday prayer and congratulate me for converting to Islam!

I wonder then why the Christian guy who I share room with and he was my boos too never told anyone that is I’m not Christian as he knew from first day he said WANT YOU TO SHARE SOME FUN!

Couple years more and I went to work in hotel own by Egyptian government, I have been hired while the HR was in vacation, when he came back to work he ask me to see him in his office and then he start process to fire me because I’m not doing my job well after 2 weeks of hiring, when he ask me to give him my id to write down information he see that I’m a Muslim, he smiled and said oh I thought you are Christian sorry, we just have a policy not to hire Christians, now go back to work!

In the day of my interview in American embassy in Cairo, the information desk asked me my name before answer my question about where should I go, after knew my name he ignored me totally , when I repeat it he said go with YOUR people.

In America first and only time I hear a very rude and racial clear words toward me when I met that Egyptian guy at work and because he looked to my name tag asked me which church I go to, I answered I go to mosque he said : YOU BECOME SO MANY HERE IN AMERICA WE LEFT EGYPT FOR YOU AND YOU FOLLOW US TO HERE.

Do you remember when they fire you from college theater team Irene? Do you remember when we had our team and had our first play on Y theater, George do you remember teasing me in Ramadan, yousef I still hungry for your mom cake, morgues thanks for the rug you gave me for prayer from you balcony that Friday.

For all of you I apologize I’m coward, I didn’t do anything real for you, you get killed in Egypt streets, I feel your blood on my hand.

BANANA REPUBLIC OF DISCRIMINATION AKA: EGYPT

My friend father in law just back from Egypt, he told me he would love to spend the rest of his life- he is retirement- in Egypt! I wondered why? What he liked there? What he could see and I couldn't’t? He gave me short clear answer
HIM: in case I’ll die there and go to hell I won’t be able to notice any differences in case the hell is not better!!
It was an idea from long time to make a series of posts to list who will be discriminated Egypt, I thought for while it will EVERYONE but still every type of people has to know what Egyptians think about them even if they say “we are friendly people love every one” those words will be correct if they add the word “pay me” in the end.
Here are some not all of types I’ll try to cover the Egyptian stereotypes about them
Arab (means the people from Arabic gulf countries)
Berber (Tunis-Algeria-morocco)
Black people (doesn’t matter where they are from even if they are Egyptians)
Christian (or any other religion than Islam even if you are Muslim practice things differently)
Disables (all types)
Foreign (usually mean Europeans and Americans)
Homosexual (the focus on feminine gays not bi and not lesbians at all as they think it’s a joke and something women practice in their spare time!)
Kids
Uneducated
Poor
Women

And anything else I’ll remember and they are many of course!
See let us start that adventure!!!

SAY NO TO “ANGOLA” 2010




The Egyptian soccer team and all who cares must start from now declaration they won’t go to Angola 2010 cup. Why? For below reasons
1-Angola the AFRICAN country (yay) has relations with Israel and as Egypt government policy is -no one but us only have to deal with Israel- and for sure they will ignore THE EGYPTIAN ROLE -which I don’t what is it in Angola but Egypt must has one everywhere- so Egyptian authorities as they always have been the smartest people ever should be aware about that better than me-such A NORMAL LOW LEVEL PERSON.
2-Angola hate Egypt and envy the Egyptian development at ALL aspects so Egypt must follow the great Egyptians ELITE theory in civilization –hate them if they don’t love you.
3-Alegrians did pay to Angola from three hundred years to be against Egypt.
4-Qatar pays Angola to make up stories about the HOLY Egyptian team as they did in SOUTH AFRICA.
5-Angola does not have the enough policemen or smart enough people to make system that save the HOLY Egyptian team, HOLY UN replaceable ELITE supporters.
6-Qatar, Israel and Algeria will pay Angola to make the weather more humid to put down the Egyptians stamina (you didn’t hear about it? They build the pyramids and in break since then- fair employ right isn’t it?)
7-teams who in group C and D will deal together to let the Egyptians face the Tunisians who will defeat the Egyptians as usual.
8-the Egyptian team is a cup holder and no need to approve they are the best.
9- the Egyptian team win the Tunisian they deal against Egypt again and let it face the Algerians (Wahoo)
10-Many teams will have BLACK players and that will affect badly on the Egyptian team feelings –do you see any black player in the Egyptian team!

I tried myself in Egypt to spread a fake news to test how fast it will go and surprisingly I hear it back from another city after 3 days ,wow, so don’t surprise those ideas will be in Egyptian media SOON!

FORT HOOD SHOOTING (2)

WHY MUSLIMS HATE AMERICA? WHY MUSLIMS WHO LIVE IN AMERICA HATE AMERICA?
QUESTIONS ALWAYS COME IN HEAD AFTER ANY ACCIDENT LIKE FORT HOOD SHOOTING.
USUALLY THE ANSWERS COME FROM MUSLIMS THAT IS MUSLIMS DON’T AMERICA AND MUSLIMS WHO LIVE IN AMERICA ARE VERY COOPERATIVE (THIS WERE WORDS BY THE CONVENIENCE STORE OWNER ON FORT HOOD WHO IS MUSLIM) AND SHOW EXAMPLES OF HOW MANY MUSLIMS LIVE AND WORK WITH NO PROBLEMS AND THINGS BE QUIT TILL NEXT ACCIDENT AND SO ON LIKE THAT.
SO LET US HAVE SOME REALITY CHECKS, YES THE MESSAGES MUSLIM GET FROM MUSLIM SCHOLARS ARE HATE TO AMERICA MESSAGES INDEED AND NO DOUBT ABOUT IT, THE WHO DEFERENCE BETWEEN ONE AND ANOTHER MUSLIM REACTION IS JUST SOME EAT IT AND SOME LISTEN AND IGNORE IT.
WHAT ARE THE MESSAGES?
FIRST OF ALL YOU NEVER CAN FIND ANY SCHOLARS TELL THAT AMERICA IS YOUR HOME AND AMERICANS ARE YOUR COMMUNITY AND THEY HAVE THE RIGHT TO GET THE BEST OF YOU AND IF YOU BELIEVE AMERICA IS ENEMY AND WANT TO FIGHT IT THEN LEAVE IT AND FIGHT IT FROM OUT SIDE BECAUSE THE ISLAMIC RULE HERE THAT AMERICA GIVE YOU A WAY TO COME THAT LIKE A CONTRACT YOU BE A GOOD RESIDENT AND AMERICA GIVE YOU YOUR RIGHTS EQUALLY (PLEASE IF ANYONE AT ANY ISLAMIC COMMUNITY IN USA HEARD IT LET ME KNOW) , BUT NO THE MESSAGES ALWAYS AMERICA IS ALIEN WITH ISRAEL AND AMERICA IS THE BIGGEST ENEMY OF ISLAM AND AMERICA IS BEHIND THE DOCTORATE SYSTEMS IN MIDDLE EAST AND ALL THOSE THINGS MY QUESTION HERE WHY YOU JUST DON’T LEAVE AMERICA THEN??
ANOTHER FAMOUS MESSAGE IS THAT ANY FAILURE MUSLIMS GOT IS BECAUSE JEWISH PEOPLE BEHIND IT!! IT SOUND LIKE JEWISH DO NOTHING BUT TRY TO STOP THE MUSLIMS!!
AND I HAVE TO NOTE HERE WHEN EVER AN ARAB SAY WE HATE ISRAEL NOT JEWISH THAT IS A BIG LIE SPECIALLY FROM EGYPTIANS, TRY TO SAY I’M A JEW AGAINST ISRAEL WHILE YOU ARE IN EGYPT( I’M NOT SURE HOW YOU WILL BE KILLED BUT I’M SURE I’LL NOT SEE YOU AGAIN)
I MENTIONED BEFORE THE MUSLIM SCHOLARS MAKE IT CLEAR THAT YOU CHOOSE TO BE AN AMERICA OR A MUSLIM AND YOU CAN’T BE BOTH SO THE RESULT IS MANY MUSLIMS HAVE DOUBLE FACES, ONE WITH OTHER MUSLIMS AND SAY ALL YOU NEVER CAN EXPECTED ABOUT AMERICANS AND ANOTHER WITH ALL OTHER PEOPLE AND THAT WHY IT IS SO COMMON MANY MUSLIMS HAVE A REAL NAME AS KNOWN BETWEEN MUSLIMS AND A NICKNAME AS KNOW BETWEEN OTHERS (NAMES LIKE MARK, GEORGE AND FRANK.ETC)
ONE MAJOR POINT AND IT IS REALLY VERY DANGEROUS, I NEVER HEARD ABOUT ANY SCHOLAR HERE IN USA ANNOUNCED THAT OSAMA BIN LADIN IS CRIMINAL AND WRONG!!
IS NOT THAT MEAN THEY BELIEVE IN WHAT HE DOING OR AT LEAST NOT TOTALLY AGAINST HIM?
SOMETHING I LEARNED HERE IN USA MUSLIMS, WHEN I NEED TO EXPECT HOW THINGS GOES AT ANY MOSQUE I TRY TO FIND OUT WHERE IS THE SUPPORT MONEY COME FROM? IF SAUDI ARABIA THEN THE MOSQUE TOTALLY CARE ABOUT WHAT WOMEN WEAR AND ARABS ARE THE BEST OF ALL, IF THE MONEY COME FROM IRAN THEN THE MESSAGES WILL BE AMERICA IS BAD AND ARAB TOO IS BAD BUT AMERICA LITTLE BETTER THAN ARABS.
SOMETHING MAKES ME LAUGH SO MUCH WHEN I HEARD THE GUY SAYS “WE ARE AS A MUSLIMS VERY COOPERATIVE” THAT I’M SURE HE MEANT THE ONLY WAY MUSLIMS ARE COOPERATIVE AT IN USA THAT IS MORE THAN HALF OF THEM ARE AGENTS FOR CIA AND FBI REPORT THE OTHER HALF!
BUT CAN YOU FIND MUSLIMS AT ANY SOCIETY ISSUE? NO WAY YOU CAN FIND A MUSLIM IN FOOD BANK OR BLOOD BANK OR CANCER WALK OR CAMPAIGN FOR ANY ISSUE AT ALL, IF YOU FOUND ONE AND USUALLY THEY ARE FEMALES THAT IS AN INDIVIDUAL ACT NOT AS A MUSLIM, WHAT I MEAN CAN YOU FIND ANY ISLAMIC ORGANIZATION OR EVEN GROUP OF INDIVIDUALS SUPPORT ANYTHING IN COMMUNITY? NOOOOOOO WAY
THAT THEIR UNDERSTANDING, AMERICANS DON’T DESERVE HELP AND IF WE SHARE THAT IS WRONG WE HAVE TO BE NON-EXIST AND AMERICANS (WHO ARE MOSTLY JEWS AS MUSLIMS SAY.LOL) HATING US, SO WHY WE DO THAT FOR THEM? EVEN WHEN WE DONATE MONEY WE DONATE TO OTHER COUNTRIES NOT TO COMMUNITY HERE!
** I HAD A CONVERSATION WITH ONE MUSLIM GUY FROM NIGER LOST HIS CAR DEALER BUSINESS LAST YEAR AND HE OFFERED ME A DEAL.
“BECAUSE YOU’RE AN EGYPTIAN YOU JUST NEED TO GO TO MOSQUE MORE OFTEN AND LET YOUR BEARD GROW AND AFTER WHILE YOU CAN ASK THE IMAM TO GIVE YOU MONEY TO START BUSINESS,USUALLY HE GIVES 100 GRAND, AND WE CAN HAVE A GOOD BUSINESS TOGETHER” HE SAID TO ME
I WAS KIND OF SURPRISED BUT HE EXPLAINED THAT HOW MOST OF EGYPTIANS AND OTHER ARABS (ONLY ARABS )START BUSINESS HERE, MONEY COME FROM SAUDI ARABIA TO SUPPORT POOR PEOPLE BUT IMAM NOT DO THAT ,HE JUST SUPPORT ARABIA SPECIALLY EGYPTIANS.
“WHY SPECIALLY EGYPTIANS WHILE THE IMAM HIMSELF IS IRAQI” I ASKED
“BECAUSE EGYPTIANS ARE GOOD PROPAGANDA TOOL” HER SAID
I WAS NOT SURPRISE SO MUCH BUT….. UM NO NEED TO SAY IT

People AND PEOPLE

Usually I don’t like to make a post about something just because it is a top news, that is I conceder myself is an EXEPRT in Egyptians behavior (hmm)
Any way I’ll answer the question on what I think about (Algerians/Egyptians fans violence after soccer game in Sudan 11-18-09)
I have to point out some points first
1- When the Egyptian media talks about people they mean the ELITE people not the nation or all Egyptians
2- Most of Egyptians ( I don’t generalize but it is fact) hate –yes HATE- other Arabs
3- Egyptians believe (that what message I got from almost everyone in Egypt) that all Arabs must naturally born worship Egyptians because Egyptians helped them and built their countries and blah blah blaaaaaaah( as a fact there was not even one case any Egyptian did anything for any other Arab for free )

Also I want to say I’m not going to talk about Algerians, because I’m not going to be the Arab united hero and make poem about them neither I won’t attack them as they are the evil himself.
I think all what Egyptian media claims are fake, yes fake and fake and fake, I did watch some of Egyptian TV shoe on you tube and it was amazing that people under attack (that what they said) and make an international call (I don’t have to tell you how great phone service are there) and wait on line till they allow him/her to talk and scream that they are wounded and injured badly!!!
Rania alwany (Egyptian swimmer, female) in her call from Sudan she said (I’m injured so badly in my face, all my forehead is open, I had to put t-shirts on my head, I changed 3 and have the fourth t-shirt on now, I look like farmers) she didn’t forget to discriminate the LOW people as they call them, oh yay she looks like farmers women oh my…
Now is the time of fact. 21 persons were injured with very little issues as a cause of SOME people through some rocks on ONE bus and the broken glasses made some injures,
Yes that was it, from 7000 fan in Sudan 21 get very little injured ( most of them needed a bandage only!!!!) and I don’t want to forget the swimmer herself Refused to go to any hospital and got some water to wash her face, that’s it !!!!! After she said I’m pleading from an hour!!!!!!
So here is what I know and what I totally believe, the Egyptian government sent some elite to support the team and the media from long time pushed Egyptian anger against Algerians, and at the right moment they fake that news and ALL idiots follow the wave as a flock (that I call Egyptians) and all of that because government wants that for some reason I’m not aware about, but absolutely the Egyptian government and Egyptian élite don’t have any care about people( the low or normal people as they call poor and medium class) so it’s all about élite and government push the idiot flock to that direction.
Just a silly question , why there was Not any TV reporter there to report it live and show the violence of CRIMINAL ALGRIANS as the media called them?
One guy was calling a talk show and said “we are trapped in Sudan air port but NONE is here, not any Sudanese police or clerks, lolls I can’t stop imagine that empty airport.
I’m really curios to know what was the government goal??
The medical support person in Egyptian in Sudan did a call for the live talk show and asked where the injured are, I don’t see any fighting in streets or anything? Then they cut his call!!!

To Egyptians, when you put your head in sand that doesn’t mean others can’t see you, it just mean you can’t see anything

FORT HOOD SHOOTING (1)

None can describe how they felt like in fort hood when THEIR colleague MAJ. NIDLA start to shooting them, but I can imagine they took a while before they believed it was a real shooting and he killing them.
Usually in situations like that Muslims will argue that wasn’t a religion it was an individual act, anti-Muslims will argue that is what ISLAM about , so that I won’t discuss nor of those ideas because the supporters for both more than enough, what I’ll do is just a simple non expert analyzing for the accident.
First of all I have to stop with one major point happening in mosques in USA and outside USA, it is a really dangerous idea imams put in Muslim heads indirectly or directly which is being Muslim that divide you from your community, which means you have to choose to be a Muslim or American and you can’t have loyalty for Islam and America in same time, by the way it’s not just America it is the same speech and idea all over the world even if the country is ISLAMIC country with 100% Muslim population!
About the accident itself there are some points need to focus on:
1-NIDAL was born in AMERICA for Arab parents believed to be from Jordon (in fact they are Palestinian but as many Palestinian moved to Jordon in 1980”S after black September and have Jordon nationality they always say they are from Jordon) , from the convenience store owner words we did know NIDAL wasn’t able to speak Arabic , so it seem he was living with the feeling he is an AMERICAN .
2-Nidal didn’t find any problem to be educated by Americans money and even serve in HIS COUNTRY army and even get educated by that army money.
3-Nidal’s family did say he was facing some acts against him from other army soldiers because of his ethnicity , I believe they try to find excuse for him but any way we have to remember here the American army had American Africans in it at WW || and as known they did face more than what possibly NIDAL could face but we never know any American African shoot his friends.
4-NIDAL”S family also said he didn’t want to go to fight against other Muslims, so here are couple questions, if the war was against china as example he would be happy to go?? , didn’t he think being in army is a share in that war even if he didn’t go? Why he didn’t do as many did n Vietnam war and refused to go and face his charge whatever it will be a prison years or whatever as a brave person? The answer for all that he just was AN ARAB.
5-When NIDAL felt it is wrong to be in the America side why he just didn’t leave and fight against America there overseas? Why he didn’t just suicide and not put others in his plans? Just because he is a coward.
6- The accident made many change their ideas from fighting the terrorists to fight any Muslim because you never know when he or she will kill you, thanks NIDAL for that!!
7- NIDAL wasn’t a practice Islam until last two months when he knew he will be send to war!! So it isn’t the religion itself then, so it seem like he is a coward, fake person who try to find excuse for him and in same time to look like he has a plan!!
I hope my I can send a message for NIDAL to tell him” If you did read any religion book you should know killing innocent not in fight is a good reason to go to hell, even that ( in Islam when you are at war and your ENEMY has no weapon you don’t kill them) but sure you never read about it.

Woman rights

Women in my country Egypt -which is kind of better than most of Arabic countries- are a public owned THING for men, we –the men- have all rights to decide for them what they wear and how they act, if they can work or not and that right isn’t only for father and brother and husband NOOO it is a right for anyone to comment and analyze a woman behavior from her dress or the way she talks.
From few years ago the wave of “woman rights” become strong in Egypt but I can tell without any real effect than a noise in media and some wannabe women jumped over the wave to show up in media.
I never felt good with that expression “woman rights” for simple reason, who women ask to take her rights from? I think the answer will jump in head is MEN, the argue is who give that right to men from first place to decide what to give to women?
For me that makes it worse for women not just in middle east but everywhere because that means women accept the fact their rights in men hands to give or to keep, I understand children rights and animal rights because both can’t get their decisions by themselves but women! That is discrimination in itself.
Another question must come up here, what “woman rights” they looking for?
The sad thing they just look for justice, right in education and fair treatment in jobs and law and all life aspects ,is that much? Are those right should be given or not depend on sex? Just being woman is enough reason to be without rights, the normal human rights, the basic ones.
I agree some women become so far in that and try at any expenses to prove woman is better than man, but is that prove anything? It shouldn't’t be that way because that meaning is a way to say the better deserves more!
Usually what I experience in my life loser men think men better than women and also loser women think the same way!
The man who think he is better because of his sex, don’t surprise when he believe the same because his religion, age, look, nationality and whatever else
At the end keeps in mind
“The man, who thinks by his sex organs, can’t think hard all the time”…
My little quote….
