Merry Christmas Again and Again :)

I love how we got two Christmases in Egypt :)
Merry Christmas to all Orthodox Christians especially Egyptian Orthodox Christians that saw a lot last year. God knows all Egyptians from North to South , from East to West saw a lot.
Anyhow to celebrate Christmas this year I would like share this amazing mix of classical music , Islamic inshad, Egyptian Coptic hymns and Christian hymns from Mozart in Egypt 2 album. 
It is called "Al Maghfera" - The Pardon. The one who sings the Islamic part is late Sheikh Mohamed El Helbawy who was one of the most famous Monshadeen in Egypt.
This amazing piece of art makes me cry from its beauty.

Again Merry Christmas everybody

The Return of the #NDP Rascals

No I will not write what happened in Egypt  on Friday, it has become a routine as we have become like Lebanon. The only thing I can say that the protest law and designating the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization have been so successful in cracking down the protests of the Brotherhood in Egypt !! So damn successful !! Of course I am being sarcastic 
I will write about the return of the NDP and Mubarak rascals back again boldly and madly in the media and in public shamelessly.
Shamelessly the former speaker of Mubarak's parliament for 2 decades Fathy Sorror is giving lectures about how it is important to vote "yes" in the constitution referendum and about the 30 June revolution. 

Shahinaz Al Naggar , the former NDP MP and the ex-wife of Gamal Mubarak's best friend and steel tycoon Ahmed Ezz is back also and she is going to present a TV show on Al Hayat TV channel called "The Gains of the Revolution"  !! 

 

Oh yes the gains of the revolution and I will assume she does not mean the 25 January revolution. 
Of course people are mocking her show on Facebook. 
Mohamed Kamal , policy maker of NDP is back again and is writing op-eds in Al Masry Al Youm about the Civilian military relations mentioning what happened in January 2011 as protests. 
It is no surprise actually. Almost all the columnists and journalists of Mubarak era that kissed that rotten regime's ass are back in media boldly praising Mubarak and accusing the revolutionaries of being traitors working for the intelligence services in this realm and other realms.
This return of the rascals after 3 years is represented perfectly in how F-List belly dancer and attention seeker "another term can be appropriate to describe her" Sama El Masry has now a TV channel on Nile Sat "Do not ask me from where she got the money to own a TV channel on Nile Sat" called "El Felol". "El Felol is a term referring to the Mubarak regime's remnants and his supporters.The first production of this channel is a song by Sama El Masry dedicated to Al Jazeera channel and it is called "Yes we are the salves of the military boot". 

Of course she speaks about herself and those like her.
Politically speaking the NDPers are organizing themselves now in parties and coalitions from.At best case scenario the next parliament will be a mix of Salafists and NDPers.
The so-called pathetic revolutionary parties like Free Egyptians party , Social Demcoratic party and constitution party will lose as usual
Democracy and those people do not mix. Stagnation , retardation , poverty and dictatorship mix with them.They are the living characters of any third country dictatorship Pro-regime society.
I do not think any sane person with self respect and dignity can accept this song or this human being.
This all happens in the same time the #Jan25 activists and protesters are being crucified in the media and are standing trials in courts.

So what is your job exactly Mr. Minister !?

Al Mahdi in Al Shorouk "Source : Amr Ezzat"

Shorouk newspaper published a very interesting interview on Friday with minister of transitional justice Amin El Mahdi where the veteran judge stated a very important statement.
The minister of transitional justice believes now is not the perfect time to speak about transitional justice now because there is no legislative support to it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When it will be suitable for the transitional justice in Egypt if now is not the time !! When will it be suitable insh Allah according to the veteran’s judge’s view !? Last time I checked the interim president who issued laws like the protest law got legislative powers !!
What is the job of that minister now then !? Already if he is waiting for the parliament then he must know that there will be a new cabinet then. If there is nothing he can do then he can resign easily.  
If you are serious about transitional justice for real you start now with no hesitation to calm down this society on fire. True transitional justice will help you in fighting real terrorism and will bring stability for real.
Of course the only reconciliation seems to be recognized by the current regime is the reconciliation with the Mubarak’s regime icons and the ministry of interior which has not been restructured yet. 
I do not understand for real what happens to so-called respectable people in this country when they occupy official positions in Egypt. First Hossam Eissa and now Amin El Mahdi.

#AblaFahita , the master Spy of #Vodafone or this is how you attract #FDI to #Egypt and fight terrorists !!! "Updated"

And 2013 swore not to leave us any hope when it comes to the future of Egypt and here I am not speaking about clashes or bombings but about mentality.
Do you remember how Pro-Mubarak/Pro-Military conspiracy theorist Sameh Abu Arayes accused Abla Fahita puppet of being a spy !? Well guess what , today the regional manager of Vodafone Egypt stood in front of state security prosecution in order to explain the meaning of Abla Fahita.
Vodafone and Abla Fahita were reported to the prosecutor general’s office by Pro-Military Anti-25Jan self claimed activist Ahmed Spider for sending encrypted messages from the Muslim Brotherhood leaders to the members in Egypt including dangerous messages about terrorist attacks !!! 
This is not a joke , it is a bitter reality.
First of all ,here is the ad starring the famous Abla Fahita about the new year’s offers from Vodafone. It is hilarious.

Yesterday in the New Year’s Eve we found State security journalist turned in to TV host speaking about this on his TV show along with former singer and current Freemasonry and espionage expert Ahmed Spider about this horrifying spy Abla Fahita.
It was not a parody act in the New Year’s eve , I swear it was serious to the level that Vodafone Egypt PR spoke in Moussa’s show swearing there was nothing wrong. The man could not believe what he was facing actually in front of those two strange creatures with no brain.

Many people are trying to find a logic justification for what happened. Some claim that that could be a cheap attempt from Ahmed Moussa and Tahrir channel to blackmail Vodafone in order to sponsor the channel’s shows and so on. I am afraid it is not about the revolutionary channel turned in to a Felol channel in some irony representing the situation in Egypt. Infamous "Al Faraeen TV" channel exposed the huge conspiracy behind the latest Vodafone's ad too as well !!
“El Faraeen” and its founder Tawfik Okasha are too close to the current regime especially security apparatuses to the level that they arrest people upon his request in less 48 hours for doing the Rabaa sign in photos with him !! This is more than comedy act.

Here is a video from his channel where there was a discussion about the dangerous Fahita !!

The Pro-Police Facebook pages also kept publishing posts about Abla Fahita and its encoded messages.
Here is a post by the so-called Media center of MOI on Facebook in the 48 hours madly. I hate to tell them that terrorists do not wait till Vodafone produces an ad worth of thousands of pounds to know the latest instructions. There are hundreds of secured and even unsecured instant messaging apps that can do the job easily for God's sake !!

Post by ‎الجهاز الإعلامى لوزارة الداخلية‎.

MOI's Media Department : The pages of Abla Fahita was using unknown symbols and codes whether secretly or publicly "!!" which is against the state's policy and what the law warned of. We do not know whether if these are true symbols or fake symbols in order to confuse the state's apparatus either ways it is against the law. The administrators of Abla Fahita should be questioned according to the law and we are waiting the prosecution's warrant to arrest those administrators and those who cooperated with them. FYI those administrators are well known to security.

FYI the administrators or rather the creator of Abla Fahita is well known for many people especially in advertising so it is not a big secret.
Also I want to say that terrorists have won already if the administrators are truly police officers assigned to protect us !! 
 It is worth to mention that the ministry of interior stated before those pages were not official but amazingly in times like this it does not close them or even angry that the admins are claiming to be officers.
Tawfik Okasha , Ahmed Moussa and Ahmed Spider as well Amr Mostafa and Pro-Military/Pro-Police Facebook pages do not act alone , they are more puppets than Abla Fahita and Carolina.
Their puppeteer is sending a great message to Foreign investors and multinational companies!?
In fact What kind of message you want to send to the Egyptians and to the world as well by making conspiracy theorist losers who are totally against 25 January revolution like Amr Mostafa and Ahmed Spider not to mention all the retired army generals aka Self claimed Strategic analysts speak all the time about cosmic conspiracies against Egypt and how the Muslim Brotherhood control UK and US through Muslims around the globe !?
The scary part is that I do not really think that he does understand the implications of such actions whether on short or medium or even the long term.

The Vodafone spy Abla Fahita !!

One day there is could be a real threat and people won’t believe anyone, it is a lesson we know since our childhood.
Does the current regime in Egypt or the deep state want Vodafone to leave Egypt !? I swear to God I am trying to find a serious justification but can not !! I kept thinking all day long to the level that I thought it were a devilish company by Vodafone !!!!
Is this some sort of diversion plan created to make the mainstream media busy in something trivial !? 
I just do not understand , I swear I do not know !! 
The Pro-Military/Pro-Mubarak supporters now are claiming that it was important to investigate Abla Fahita because “we do not know for real the truth” , “Everything is possible !?” and of course the favorite justification , Muslim Brotherhood member and former minister of investment Yahia Hamed was one of the top executives in Vodafone plus Vodafone is British and London now is the capital of the MB in the world !!!!!!!!!!!! Ironically I think we got at least two ministers of telecommunication who worked in Vodafone and they were all approved by GIS !!
I can not believe those guys write on their twitter account !? 
Is this how we are going to be advanced civilized country , the country that interim Presidential advisers Ahmed El Muslimany and Mostafa Higazy always speak about !?Is there a hope to end this hysteria !?

Updated at 2/1/2014

• Now in some historical non-precedent thing in Egypt that we have not seen before : Online debate or rather Confrontation between Ahmed Spider and Lady Abla Fahita on air !! Oh yes on CBC channel TV host Khairy Ramdan's show had this unforgettable episode or rather segment !! You know the end of civilization , this is the end of the human civilization without doubt. 

• Spider Vs. Fahita !! Oh God and spider : I will send her "the Puppet" to jail , I will send her jail otherwise I will leave Egypt !! 
• First Abla Fahita spoke on air with TV host Mahmoud Saad who clearly did not know her and they had this strange conversation 
• Spider now believes that the puppeteer is a man , an intelligence officer who lives abroad just like the investigations implied "What investigation" and that anyone knows now Fahita's voice is man's voice !!!!!
• He is also sharing some photo for some employees in Vodafone in Halloween doing the Rabaa sign claiming that they are the crew behind the ad !! 
• General El Sisi Fan pages on the Facebook as well the Pro-Military Facebook pages are encouraging people to  boycott Vodafone spreading lies about Fahita !! 
• Egypt's Conspiracy theorists Sameh Abu Arayes and Ahmed Spider are fighting over the royalty rights on who exposed the the conspiracy and the dangerous code first !!
