مصر شديدة أوي يا أولاد

الدكنور أحمد نظيف رئيس الوزراء عمل لقاء مع مجموعة من طلبة الجامعات في معسكر أبو قير.

معسكر أبو قير ده عبارة عن مصيف رخيص لطلبة الجامعات (الذكور فقط طبعاً) بس التنظيم والمحاضرات واللقاءات كلها في إيد الحزب الوطني. يعني من الآخر عاملين المعسكر عشان يلملموا ألاضيشهم.

المهم. أحمد نظيف إداها بقين نخع في اللقاء وقعد يقول إن مصر بخير ومافيش أنفلونزا خنازير ولا طاعون.

وقال كمان أن مصر ماشية على طريق التحول لدولة متقدمة.

وطالب الشباب إنه يسرع العجل بفتح العين والجيم. وبإنه يشتغل وينتج ويبدع ويبقى عنده طموح وقدرات.

التعليقات اللي جاية على كلام نظيف في جريدة المصري اليوم تستحق القراءة. واحد اسمه أبو ريم باعت يقول:

بعد قليل اخرج معاش ومنذ تخرجى وانا اسمع نفس الحديث وتزداد الامور سوءاً


إيه يا أبو رسم مالك مستعجل كده ليه. هو خلاص الناس معندهاش صبر. إيه يا أخي هي الدنيا حتطير. طبعا الأمور حتتحسن بس مش لازم في حياتك ولا في حياة أولادك.. المهم إن الأمور حتتحسن إن شااااااااااااااااااء الله.

Bongo

Just try to follow the sequence of events in this article:

6th of May: The 45 year old wife of Gabon's president Omar Bongo dies. A presidential statement said he had "suffered a shock of great emotional intensity after the premature death of his young wife following a long illness." And he temporarily suspends his duties to rest and mourn the death of his beloved wife.

8th of June: Omar Bongo dies. There are speculations that the corrupt leader's son (who happens to be the defence minister) will take over!

Now with the death of Bongo who ruled Gabon for 41 years, our president Mubarak becomes the longest serving president in Africa.

"Hey. Gaddafi has been in power since 1969", I hear you shouting.

Maybe... but remember that Gaddafi gave up power in 1979 and the Libyan people took over.

Being the longest serving African president is quite an achievement. You only have to do 4 or 5 years to be the longest serving president in Europe, but those African dudes are very hard to beat.

Mubarak's Grandson Sudden and Mysterious Death

It's a tragedy when any child dies, but to be absolutely honest I didn't think the story would generate alot of interest.

I was very wrong. It was one of the most searched and read topics on the internet today and the news generated loads of comments and reactions on websites and blogs and tweets...

There was alot of schadenfreude (a German word which means gloating at someones misfortune) or شماتة in Arabic like this blog which I find a bit distasteful although I am not a big fan of Mubarak. I guess it shows how unpopular the old geezer is.

No explanation was announced so the rumours swirled. Leukemia, brain haemorrhage and ynet said it was food poisoning.

Mubarak did not attend the funeral and this also triggered rumours about his health.

Egyptian TV is playing religious songs as a sign of respect for the presidential family. This is a bit annoying. I dont wacth Egyptian state TV but it kinda pisses me off that a public service should be interrupted because of one family's tragedy.

Mubarak's birthday

The Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak is celebrating his 81st birthday today quietly at home with his family.

Mubarak came to power in 1981 after his predecessor Anwar Al Sadat got shot to pieces during a military parade.

Some people say Mubarak is a dictator who allowed corruption to spread in Egypt and stifled all forms of opposition but allowed Islamists to gain ground.

His critics on the other hand are less generous.

Happy birthday.

In Egybt, we kill za big

Police clashed with grabage collectors who raise pigs in Manshiyet Naser today.

Egyptian government officials are well known for their ineptness and stupidity, but every once in a while they demonstrate phenomenal ass-holiness. They decided to slaughter the entire pig population of Egypt (with a few exceptions) to protect the country from the swine flu.

The World Health Organization and other UN bodies tried to explain that killing za bigs is not necessary, but the decision has already been taken and they didnt want to look stupid by raising their hands and admitting they were wrong.

Instead the authorities have now expanded the rationale for the slaughter beyond swine flu to a larger campaign against unsanitary pig farming conditions, particularly in the Cairo slums where the garbage collectors live... Very clever.

The true motive is to appease the Islamists, but this is a very dangerous game. Today it's pigs, tomorrow who knows? Maybe communists or athiests or gays or belly dancers??? We'll see.

Mubarak Will Never Die

Isn't it weird that ten years ago there was more talk about who will succeed Mubarak than there is today? I think we all realize now that we got it completely wrong back then. The man will never die. Yes, he is immortal. He will certainly outlive Omar Soliman and his son Gamal will become Egypt's prince Charles, forever waiting for daddy to abdicate or die but neither will happen. Mubarak is a fit and energetic eighty year old. Not a single grey hair in his head and he is constantly travelling all over the place looking great. His mother died when she was 105 in a car accident, so he is going nowhere for at least 20 years. Forget about succession.

The Middle East:: Land of the Assholes

As much as I hate Hamas and what they represent especially after what happened in Gaza (which is primarily their fault), I hate the Israelis who are orchestrating all the Gaza shit. What the fuck do they think they are doing? Does Livni think that killing babies will make her prime minister? Is that it?

And watching the news tonight, I saw huge demonstrations against the killing of Gazan children and civillians in Paris, London, Australia and Indonesia. Apart from a small demonstration in the West Bank there was abso-fucking-lutely no reaction from the Middle East? The explanation is simple, Muslim and Arab brothers don't give a shit and they are ruled by dick heads who dont like demonstrations. In short, maybe the Gazan children who died are better off this way. Who wants to live in a place inhabited only by assholes?

The Hamas Dickheads Exposed

More than a year ago a video emerged on Youtube showing a senior Hamas official, Ghazi Hamad hanging out with babes. Very un-hamas isn't it? Interestingly someone managed to get the original video off Youtube, but it was posted again.

Where is Ghazi Hamad now? Any wild guesses? Is he fighting with the Mujahideen? No. Is he planning the strategy in a secret bunker in Gaza? No. Is he firing Qassams? No. I'll tell you...

The coward, the chicken, the little fundi piece of shit is in Egypt to coordinate relief efforts with Egyptian officials. He appeared on Egyptian TV today on the Egyptian side of Rafah talking to the governor of North Sinai and looking very serious. Ghazi Hamad... fuck you... relief effort my ass... why aren't you with your people? You started this shit didn't you?.

People, this is Hamas and this is how all jihadi dickheads are. They pretend to be pious and pure but all along they are nothing but corrupt greedy power crazed bullshitters. If you were a Palestinian would you die for Hamas? I certainly wouldn't.

Palestinians and Israelis are Doomed

The images of dead and imjured Palestinian babies and children beamed on TV 24 hours a day are very disturbing. Many see the Israeli actions as criminal and disproportionate which kinda makes sense given that the arithmetic of death stands currently at 500+ Palestinians (including more than 100 children) to 5 Israelis. The weird thing is that the Israelis who say they are defending themselves have killed a hell of alot of civillians, but they claim that they are doing their utmost best to avoid civillian deaths, while Hamas are deliberately trying to kill Israeli civillians with their ineffective Qassams because this is the only way at their disposal to resist the occupation. Who has the moral high ground here? Does Israel have a right to protect its civillians from the Hamas rockets at any cost or do the Palestinians have the right to resist? Both sides have historical and religious justifications and both believe their own shit. Only two ways forward from here, either a quick solution to the Arab Israeli conflict which seems very unlikely or a continuation of the killing and the suffering for years to come with more suicide attacks on Israeli pizza parlours and more killing of Palestinian children.

The Blessed Al Jazeera Channel

A Hamas spokesman described Al Jazeera TV as the "blessed channel" during a live interview today. He said that the Qatari channel was doing a great job by showing the pictures of dead and injured Palestinians over and over again. See how Islamists like Hamas use religion not only to brain wash people and to justify their insanity but also to "bless" all those who support them.

The Hamas Fuck-up

I know that this might irritate alot of people, but I really believe that the Hamas dudes are stupid dick heads. The death toll before the ground invasion started is 446 Palestinians killed and 2050 wounded. A third of the casualities are civillians according to the UN. On the Israeli side four were killed (2 Jews, a Druze and a bedouin). Are they going to call this a devine vicotry when it's over? I was watching their Al Aqsa TV a couple of days ago and it made me sick. Glorifying their stupidity and playing out the revolting Al Qaeda style sing song anthems. This fuck up is no more justified than the Hizbollah 2006 devine crap.

Why don't they just let people fuck?

Two pieces of news caught my attention lately. The first from Somalia, where hardline Somali Islamists have stoned to death a 23-year-old woman for adultery. During the stoning furious relatives surged forward to try to save the woman, prompting guards to open fire, killing a child. Sickening shit. The second is from Egypt where police have arrested a senior civil servant and his wife accusing them of swapping sex partners with other couples. If a woman commits adultery, is that a problem? Maybe, but its a problem between her and her husband and there is no reason whatsoever for anybody to be killed. As for swinging, what's wrong with adults having cosentual sex. There is something very twisted about Islamists and police killing people and jailing them for having sex which is an act of love.

Fuck these crazy Imams



This little shit is Mohammed Al Habdan, a Saudi Imam who has recently called on women to wear a full veil, or niqab, that reveals only one eye.

According to this moron, a niqab that shows both eyes is too sexy. The whole veil thing is getting very silly. First they came up with the veil that covers the hair, then the niqab, and now the one eye business.

The dick head Habdan is also quoted as saying that women should not get out of their homes at all unless they are sick or dying and need urgent medical attention.

He has also criticized the Saudi information minister because the Saudi TV (which is one of the most dull TV channels in the whole world) is too obscene.

Somebody has to stop those crazy imams from spreading their cancerous poison. If this madness was restricted to the confines of the borders of Saudi Arabia it would have been fine. The danger is that this shit travels around very fast and nowhere in the world can be immune.

What are all these fires about?

A few minutes ago, The "Nile News" TV channel was reporting about a fire in a some factory in Gesr El Seweis.

Yesterday fires destroyed three factories in Mahalla.

A week ago there was a fire in the national theatre.

And about a month ago another fire destroyed the upper house of the parliament.

WTF is all of this about? Coincidence? I don't know.

Saudi Clerics Have Gone Mad

The role of religious authorities in any religion is usually to guide their followers along the path of morality and virtue and I have no problem with that concept.

But in Saudi Arabia it doesn't quite work this way. Two very interesting Fatwas have been issued lately. Sheikh Saleh Lihedan, a leading Saudi cleric has sanctioned the killing of media tycoons he blames for causing the “deviance of thousands of people.”

Mr. Lihedan thinks that some Arab TV channels are not kosher (or halal) and he is perfectly entitled to that opinion. The problem is, what does he do about it? He openly calls for the killing of innocent people. That for me does not fit very well with morality and virtue.

The other fatwa was issued by another prominent Saudi cleric, Sheikh Abdallah Bin Jebrin. He said on the Wahabi TV channel "Al Majd" that journalists who criticize clerics should be fired from their jobs and jailed and tortured. What a fucking dick head.

See what they are trying to say? If we dont like what you're doing we'll kill you and you're not even allowed to criticize us.

A Fire

A huge fire broke out in a disused building in down town Cairo. Details are still very sketchy about what this building was used for and if anyone really gives a fuck that it was destroyed. I don't know why I am even blogging about, since you ask. About 13 people got injured as a result and traffic around the area came to stanstill, but apart of that I haven't heard of any losses

Finally, proof that the Saudi religious police are dick heads

For the past 80 years, the Saudi religious police, which in reality is a group of mentally disturbed human oil slicks with beards, have been given a license to discriminate, abuse and in some cases kill innocent people.

It is beyond my comprehension why they have not been disbanded and locked up in a psychiatric ward. Somehow those in charge of Saudi Arabia do not believe what the whole world (and even Saudis themsleves) are saying, which is that the religious police are dick heads.

Finally there is proof. They recently decided to ban the sale of cats and dogs.

If you think that is totally mad, wait till you hear the reason behind this ban...

The sale of cats and dogs was banned in Saudi Arabia in order to keep the sexes apart. They realized that a single man walking a dog in the park is sure to attract women.

How sick is this?

Egyptian Hypocricy

Al Ahram is one of the shitiest newspapers that were ever printed. I would even think twice before using it as toilet paper.

Today the paper is gloating about another US Army scandal.

According to the paper's Washington correspondents, the US Army admitted keeping Iraqi detainees in small cells (90cm X 90cm X 180cmm) for up to 12 hours.

Touch wood I have never been detained, but if I was and I had a choice I would much rather spend 12 hours in the tiny American cell than one minute in an Egyptian jail. I am sure that all the Ahram dick heads would agree with that so why are you being such hypocrites you slime balls?
