What a disgrace!
This goes to show for the Zillionth time that we cannot depend on the justice system, established and deformed by Mubarak.
We will have to do this job ourselves and not wait for a court order. If you come across Mubarak’s name on any billboard, banner, school gate, factory, then bring it down and smash it immediately.
And on another note, will that be the sort of judiciary who will “try” Mubarak himself supposedly?! If you can’t even get rid of his name, how will u get rid of the guy or his regime by law?
We need special courts for Mubarak, his family and regime figures.
Personally I want neither Mubaraks’ names nor Nasser’s name on anything it’s quite enough they will go down in history as those who put Egypt on the road to ruin.How can we applaud them by leaving their names on anything once they have gone down in history as traitors and saboteurs of Egytpian society and future??
But you are fine with Sadat’s name? He wasn’t a traitor?
I was in London when the war errupted in 1973, we found out on the BBC tv via a “news” video which supposedly was showing the situation as is in the canal zone, they showed footage of Israeli tanks with Egyptian soldiers tied to the turrets & said that the pontoons had been bombed out, that they were bombing near Cairo & heading for the High Dam…we went crazy ofcourse, then after this finished by 2 minutes a spokesperson came on for the BBC appologized for the footage saying it was from 1967 & that the time had been leased from the BBC by the WZO then proceeded to show the situation as is.(collected much money & blood for us & rcvd death threats frm Zionist org there) I tried to get back to Egypt on the first available flight but that turned out to be landing in Libya& the Egyptian boys who were on the flight insisted that I get off & effectively it turned out the Captain was a friend of my father’s & he also insisted I get off as Egyptians were being molested, robbed & left in the desert by Libyans. When my father came to get my sister & I from London on the first flight frm&to Cairo,my mother & I worked as volunteers with the soldiers in the Kasr el Eini Hospital for nearly 2 years…I was 19 at the time. I cannot tell you how very proud we were of our Army & Air Force. Gen Shazly was a personal family friend & we were very frustrated when he was pulled back from Israel but it was very understandable that we could not fight the USA; Israel yes for sure yes, USA no way.The country that stood by our side & diverted it’s oil shipments meant for Europe to us for the war, was Iran, which is the reason that the US bore down on the Shah &France harboured Khomeni,especially when for the first & last time this caused the Arabs to stop oil shipemens to Europe, after the Dutch refused to allow a plane carrying medical equipement & aid to us, to refuel in Amsterdam;& they had the gall to get upset while they were allowing US planes carrying arms to Israel to refuel.It also happened that at the time the peace talks between Israel & us were taking place I was in Paris doing my masters & had to substitute for a friend of mine who was very ill, as secretary to the director of the Arab league in Paris,the office below us was the HQ of the PLO Europe, Dr Ezzeldin Kalak, director at the time. Very long very complicated story, very very. No way to write it all down. I imagine we will meet up one day 3amo :)My father(rip) & I used to buy cartons of the “cleopatra” green filter 10 to a box cigarettes & cartons of “Bimbo” biscuits & go on the Cairo/Alex desert road on week ends & whenever we saw an army truck carrying soldiers, I would sit on the windowsill of the car & Daddy would slow down so we could throw them the cigarettes & biscuits while shouting out how proud we were & encouraging them to fight …..No I don’t believe that Sadat was a traitor,but neither do I believe he was a saint;I don’t believe any human being is that good no matter what they may believe of themselves, there is always a motive whether we want to believe it or not, but some are basically good & some are incredibly evil (“vanity is my favourite sin” A,Pacino)I believe he had a vision that he wasn’t able to implement though he had planned it,& I believe that they F’d it up royally for their own benefits,one of the reasons he was killed…I was at a Bank CEO’s office when he rcvd a letter from Anwar el Sadat, directed to all banks & financial institutes warning against working with certain relatives of his whom he had discovered were crooked & so warned these institutions that he had no responsibility whatsoever in anyones dealings with them, which I found quite straight forwardly unexpected…lol many stories in this old head of mine,witness to history by default…one day perhaps we shall sit down for a few coffees…and much talk..
