534) Egyptians & Mubarak: 10,000 days!

I don't know if it is a coincidence that the reputable Galal Amin publishes his new book about Egyptians under the rule of Mubarak with the 10,000 day of his presidency! But in all cases, Galal Amin - as usual- has presented a beautiful masterpiece analysing all the different aspects of the life of Egyptians during almost 30 years.

The book covers social, cultural, political, and mainly economic aspects and changes that happened during this period and its roots since the Egyptian Kingdom era. I really recommend this book if you are interested in Socio-Economic issues, or just interested to try to understand the Mubarak's era as a whole.

Ibrahim Essa on the other hand didn't miss the occasion, and published a hypothetical novel "Death of the Big Man" about a president who died in office after 30 years or ruling ;) If you like sarcasm, you will like it!

Anyway, I personally believe that one can't really judge an era unless it is over, and I don't think we are over with Mubarak's era yet. Wala heya over wana mesh wakhed Bali?

  2. That is great, I have been searching for something like that for a while.

    But to answer your question, it depends, if Gamal made it to the presidency then I guess Mubarak's era is not over!

  5. إذا كنت فتاة من فضلك خذي حذرك جيدا، أما إذا كنت فتى فيجب أن تخبر

    كل فتاة تعرفها لكي تأخذ حذرها ربنا يسترها علينا كلنا

    حادثة حقيقية وقعت في مصر

    اليوم بعد ساعات العمل سمعت من صديقتي عن ظهور طريقة جديدة لاغتصاب الفتيات
    حدثت لواحدة من أفضل صديقاتنا.

    بعد انتهائها من عملها و أثناء اتجاهها لمنزلها رأت طفل
    صغير يبكي فشعرت بالشفقة تجاه الطفل فذهبت
    لتسأله عما يبكيه، فأخبرها الطفل أنه تائه ويريد الرجوع لمنزله و
    أعطاها ورقه مكتوب عليها العنوان. ذهبت الفتاة –

    بكل طيبة ودون أن تشك في شيء مع الطفل لكي توصله إلى منزله

    عندما وصلوا لمنزل الطفل دقت الفتاة جرس الباب فصعقتها
    الكهرباء حيث كان الجرس مكهربا وأغمي عليها

    عندما استيقظت في اليوم التالي وجدت نفسها في منزل خال عارية من ملابسها

    ولم تستطع حتى رؤية وجه الجاني.

    ذلك هو السبب في ارتكاب الجرائم في الأيام الحالية مع الأشخاص الطيبين

    في المرة القادمة إذا حدث هذا الموقف فلا تذهبى مع أي شخص إلى أي مكان
    و من الأفضل أن تذهبى به إلى قسم الشرطة
    الأطفال المفقودين يجب أن تذهبى بهم إلى قسم الشرطة .

    الدنيا ملهاش امان حتى براءه الاطفال اصبحت تستخدم وسيله لارتكاب افظع الجرائم

    The president is responsible for everything because he is the leader. He is responsible for choosing the staff and in our case he is responsible to make sure the Constitution works and the law is enforced.
    So, he is responsible lama ma7desh yela2y re3'eef el 3iesh, he is responsible for el 3azab el yamomy fi el mawasalat, he is responsible for arwa7 el masryeen elly mato fi el ba7r harbaneen mn gohanam masr or ma7ro2een begohanam el 3abara .. He is very much responsible because he is the leader of this country. His job is to be responsible for everything.

    Howa akeed 3amal 7agat kowayesa, bas el 7agat el kowayesa mahy malya el garayed :) wel T.V. :)

  9. Mubarak like any other ruler of Egypt has his pros and cons. May be the cons are clearer now because it is a legacy from Sadat and Nasser, and because he spent so much time in office. Any president who spend 30 years in office will more or less have the same problems.

    I am sure that someone will come up with that book about the pros and achievements of Mubarak in 10000 days or in 30 years.
