IF YOU DON”T CARE ABOUT ME, DON”T EXPECT I”LL CARE ABOUT YOU

I mentioned in older post that it scared me a lot that I live with a nation does’t care so much about the human being and people life is not a value thing at all and here is one of many REAL STORIES:
AT January 2006 Egypt hold the 2006 Africa Cup of Nations and for sure all Egyptians were excited as it’s the most (and the only sport) popular in Egypt.
Everyone was ready and excited to support the Egyptian national team who will play against the Africans (Egyptians not, read older posts) and for sure Egypt must beat them because the game on Egypt land, and because of the 7000 years of civilization (I don’t know why we say 7000??).
In meantime there were 1312 normal people (not elite) in their way back to home from Saudi Arabia in vacation mostly.
Those people fate was to be on the AL SALAAM 98 FERRY which happen to sink at February 2 2006 in middle of the soccer competition and hundreds of people died but did that stop the nation from supporting the national team? No way its more important to support the team than to support that thousand of family were sad and lost their loved one and in most cases the only finical support they had!!
For first time I think anyone mention what I’ll till in next part and it is so disappointed me and was a major change in how I see my nation.
After EGYPT won the competition and everyone was happy they remembered the ferry sink and then some start to scream that should be a punishment for the company owner while he just an owner and were many other mistakes but as how Egyptians thinking it should be one to slaughter and then every thing will remain quit without any move to change any thing!
Let me clear that first when this ferry sink the authorities did’t want it to be pulled to the HURGHADA port because it’s a tourist one and that will affect on tourism.
After they start to rescue some people they took them to the ARMY hospital in hurghada but there was no enough blood in hospital then the authorities ordered all hotels to make employ donate blood by force but it ended up most of employee had AIDS OR VIRUS C and other diseases (mostly sex diseases) they throw that blood and then through away the rescued people too before they die in hospital!!.
The end was a game from the government because they know how people thinking, the game was a court and 10 years in prison for the company owner which will never happen because he live in London! And that was the deal he is silent and just let him away safe and every thing will go smoothly.
The most ironic thing in this dramatic accident that was no official number about how many passengers were or even how many was the crew!!
That’s why I suggested for Germans after the marwa elsherbiny accident to make a soccer game with Egypt and let Egyptians win then all will go nice and Egyptians will dancer all over the streets for the night.

  1. It's so sad what happened to the people who happened to be on Alsalam ferry "Martyrs". What's killing me the most is that as you said " the authorities didn't want it to be pulled to the HURGHADA port because it's a tourist one and that will affect on tourism."
    I'm sure if they pulled it to Hurghada then the tourists would help to rescue the people but, they didn't do it because simply they think that people who ended up at Alsalam are not as valuable as those who are in Hurghada. And for that discrimination they decided not freak out those valuable tourists ..
    "WHY??"
    WHAT A SILLY AND UNFAIR THINKING...

  2. Again the main point behind that the elite who in control don’t feel or believe OTHER Egyptians are valuable and I’m so sorry but the fact is even other Egyptians believe in that.
    It’s a fact people there believe anyone in charge is half god, do you remember when mubarak grandson dead, people were sad for real!!!!!
