    SS – Privacy – Terrorism.

    Security State or in other words, SS forces. (Ironically, the same expression – SS – was used in the Nazi era. How can people deal with each other in the same aspect the SS forces deal with supposedly dangerous people. Every one of us when we were children we were always told the famous phrase: “El Asfora Aletly” (meaning the bird told me, the bird expression in that time was used to describe people working as informers to the SS). This feeling became so overwhelming, giving that somebody the feeling that he is in control, and then I control you due to the information I have about you. No matter…

    What Tarot Card are You?

    This one is real You are The Tower Ambition, fighting, war, courage. Destruction, danger, fall, ruin. The Tower represents war, destruction, but also spiritual renewal. Plans are disrupted. Your views and ideas will change as a result. The Tower is a card about war, a war between the structures of lies and the lightning flash of truth. The Tower stands for "false concepts and institutions that we take for real." You have been shaken up; blinded by a shocking revelation. It sometimes takes that to see a truth that one refuses to see. Or to bring down beliefs that are so well constructed. What's most important to remember is that…

    The right, the left and the revolution.

    Change, change, change. All good Egyptians need change, want to change things. The ultimate question is how. There is a problem within certain people, like political analysts that they want to perform some pre-done political series of actions for the sake of prediction or to explain what is going in this county. I'm not talking mainly about history, I'm talking more about politics as a science. Egypt is facing a grave future, prices are going high in a tremendous scale, consequently some kind of social crisis appear in a lot of families due to the destruction of the important middle-class. Still, corruption is everywhere. NDP is controlling everything, while waiting…

    Round 3 of Judge Murad

    Other coverages:1. Wa7da Masreya __________ This round was hilarious really. For the history for the case you can read this for more information. I arrived at the court-house at exactly 9 am. This is the first time I attend this case, I didn't know they will consume so much time for nothing. Then some bloggers came one by one. I was really pleased to meet them. Anyway the cases roll began from like 10:30, then we were informed that Murad case will be in the end of the roll. This was so annoying really. In the beginning Murad made a long speech about his books and how they are so…
