Identical Headlines

]]> ‘War on infidels’ https://arabawy.org/109359/war-on-infidels/ Fri, 03 Apr 2015 16:37:20 +0000 https://arabawy.org/?p=109359 It was a pile of trash already, but it’s even getting worse since Yasser Rizk became the CEO of Al-Akbar, Egypt’s second largest state-owned newspaper.

Al-Akhbar Front Page 28 March 2015

Just to give you a sample, above is Al-Akhbar’s front page on 28 March, breaking the news about the Egyptian army’s heroic efforts to “abort a terror strike” on a security check point in Sinai’s Sheikh Zuweid’s area, as the “Apaches bomb a Houthi cell in Rafah that includes Palestinians and Iranians!”

Al-Akhbar Front Page 3 April 2015

And today’s front page runs a headline announcing the “martyrdom of 15 [Egyptian army] fighters and the liquidation of 27 infidels!”

]]> ‘Elephant jockeys and cannibals’ https://arabawy.org/96300/elephant-jockeys-cannibals/ Thu, 13 Nov 2014 09:06:40 +0000 https://arabawy.org/?p=96300 The deputy head of the Egyptian Football Federation, Hassan Farid, regards Africans as “elephant jockeys and cannibals,” and Egypt’s most prominent sports news website doesn’t mind at all posting those racist statements without any sort of commentary.

Such anti-African racism is rampant in Egyptian media.

]]> Security (paranoia) for all https://arabawy.org/28687/paranoia-for-all/ Mon, 16 May 2011 19:01:33 +0000 https://arabawy.org/?p=28687 The state-run TV now has a program on Channel 1 called “Security For All”, whose main task is polishing up the police’s image and continue whipping up the “security vacuum” paranoia among the Egyptian people with a message: “You are all be raped, attacked or killed if those police are not back on the streets again.”

The program is full of propaganda about “police martyrs” and tales of heroism about the pigs’ efforts to fight “criminal thugs.”

As I’m watching the program now, I don’t find any reports of course about the heroic efforts of the police in shooting and dispersing protesters yesterday in front of the Israeli embassy in Cairo, fleeing the scene with all cowardice in Imbaba when churches came under attack, nor about the police killers and torturers who are still in service.
