When thuggery becomes the official doctrine of Mubarak’s regime, don’t get surprised when our new education minister is literally a thug and a son of a thug par excellence.

Birdflu patients to be prosecuted!
This is from today’s Al-Masry Al-Youm, not from the Onion:
Citizens who contract Bird Flu will be prosecuted for the charge of “raising birds,” warned the Suez Governor, who has referred all patients of bird flu in the city’s fever hospital to the prosecutor’s office, accusing them of “harming themselves and others.”
“If someone tries to commit suicide and is taken to hospital,” said Governor Muhammad Seif Eddin Galal said during a meeting by Higher Committee to Combat Bird Flu in Suez, “then legal measures are taken for his attempt to kill himself. Well, the same applies to those infected with Bird Flu. They harm themselves and others. The law must be applied. They’ll be either imprisoned or fined.”
As for infected children, the governor said that Child Protection Law will be applied, penalizing the child’s family and imprisoning the father from six months to three years.
The Curse of the Fourth Floor
Fellow activists and citizens, Please avoid residing or visiting friends who live on the fourth floor…
A court sentenced two Giza police corporals to only five years in prison for killing a plumber in Omraniya by throwing him off the fourth floor.
And in Damanhour, State Security police threw Muslim Brotherhood activist Fares Barakat off the fourth floor for daring to ask whether the police had a search warrant to storm his house.
And let’s not forget Maadi resident Shereen Ghareeb who also flew from his fourth floor balcony, with a little help from officer Shehab el-Sha’er. The latter got away with murder because he is the nephew of the Cairo Security Director General Ismail el-Sha’er.
Thank God I live on the ground floor.
