JUST A DISAPPOINTING THOUGHT - ON EGYPT'S CONTEMPTIBLE PRESIDENT ABDEL FATTAH EL SISI. THE END!

-




The corollary being that, to challenge the government - as the armed militants and the 'religious terrorists' in parts of Egypt are doing - is, ipso facto, acting against the Establishment's perceived 'best interests of the country.' 

Which would mean, according to the government of Egypt, that they have forfeited their rights to liberty, freedom and/or life.


And so it is, that there will not really be a genuine presidential election in Egypt in March 2018. 

There does not need to be.  As it has already been decided by President Abdel Fattah el Sisi, and his government, that he should have at least another term in Office. 

While the ruling elite decides what should follow after, including whether he should have another, and another, .... 

The planned  elections are meant to be no more than a fanfare for the  el Sisists. Something for them to 'celebrate.' 

It is much less to provide some 'legitimacy' for the President's second term in office, his electoral coup, by giving some legal and diplomatic clothing. 

As the fallacy of the elections are too obvious for all to see.

So, with Egyptians being denied the right to question or challenge this trampling on their freedoms and rights, by the Egyptian government.
  
It is upto outsiders to proffer some condemnation of it. 

Step forward, Antonio Quterres, United Nation's Secretary General.  

Step forward, Secretary General of the Arab League, Ahmed Aboul-Gheit. 

Step forward, Secretary General of the African Union Commission, Moussa Faki. 

Step forward, Jean-Claude Juncker, President of the European Commission.

Make your voices heard, Egyptians who do not support the El Sisi government, by not voting.

The Egyptian government is unlikely to listen to you, but that should not prevent you from condemning its human rights affronting actions. 

Not to speak up could be perceived as support, or, probably even worse, contempt for the Egyptian people.

And what of the Egyptian government which is perpetrating this deception on the people of Egypt? Did not the Pharaohs once ruled over Egypt, and where are they now, and what has happened to symbols of their rule? It is but a matter of time!

THE ISRAEL/PALESTINIAN WAR AND HOW ISRAEL'S LATEST ATROCITY MIGHT HAVE SEALED ITS EVENTUAL DEFEAT! P.4.

   It is unlikely that things were ever getting better. But, at least the Palestinians were alive, they had their homes, their roads, water, electricity, the basic requirements for having at least a basic life.  They had more freedom of movement in their 'reservations' than they have now, with the storm troopers crawling over and around them as so many wasps.  So, yes, it is likely that, for the majority of Palestinians who are being forced to pay the price the Zionist Israeli State has decided to extract from them, the attack of 7th October might be considered to have been a tactical mistake by Hamas and the other Resistance Fighters. And yet, it could be the case that the overall and eventual outcome of the attack for the Palestinian people will be a positive one. It has broken the then impasse, the stalemate in progressing the realisation of a sovereign and viable Palestinian State.  It has forced the nations and international organisations, ordinary people of the world to t

JUST A THOUGHT - ARE PRISONS A SYMBOL OF A PUNITIVE SOCIETY? THE END....

By increasing the number of statutes by which citizens can be criminalised. So as to provide a sufficient supply of inmates for the prison population.   As we have seen, for example, in the United States of America. The so-called most advanced country in the world.   But also undoubtedly, probably the most retrograde one, when it comes to the manufacturing of criminal laws, and administration of 'crime and punishment.'  Since, not only does it make having more prisoners as a necessity, in order to keep the private companies holding and processing them, and the 'law enforcement departments, in business.  But it also encourages corruption amongst all those involved in the crime and punishment industry, through the quest to generate income and profits. Objectives which they seek to achieve by brutalising inmates and increasing their prospects for having to pursing a criminal career.  By ensuring that inmates being discharged from the prison industry are l

  So, what are my thoughts about Hamas' unprecedented attack on parts of Israel, which has resulted in hundreds of men, women and children, some of them soldiers, being killed and thousands of Israelis becoming shocked and traumatised as they have probably never experienced before? And what are my thoughts about Israel's Zionist government's brutal and merciless counter-attack on, not just Hamas' fighters and military, but on all Palestinians and their social, economic and essential infrastructures in both Gaza and the West Bank? The egg did not come 'out of nowhere', and neither did the chicken. Everything of substance and significance has a context which can help us to define and understand it more than we could or would be able to do, without that context.  This principle also applies to Hamas' attack on Israel, just as how it applies to Israel's subsequent and continuing attack on the Palestinians. And so it is that Hamas' attack on Israel was a

AMERICA'S DYSFUNCTIONAL DIPLOMATIC MODEL! PART 1.

-

Diplomacy ought to be the process by which nations, through their governments, establish and maintain mutually beneficial and peaceful relationships between them; Diplomacy is not, like the Gulf Cooperation Council members and their allies, including Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Bahrain and the UAE states, trying to bully and intimidate Qatar into doing their bidding, by surrendering its sovereignty.  Neither is diplomacy what the American government is doing, in using sanctions to force the governments of states of Iran, Russia and North Korea, into complying with its demands.  About what action they should or should not take in pursuing what they consider to be in the interest of their countries and people.  No, none of this is diplomacy. Rather it is method of force and compulsion, which is not synonymous with principle or practice of diplomacy.  Which is about the art of establishing and maintaining peaceful and mutually beneficial relationships between different countries.
