A Message To Erdoğan From The People Of Egypt


It seems that Erdoğan got all matters confused .. he might have even forgotten how military coups look like to call our revolution of June 30th a coup .. he really needs to read more history books to refresh his memory .. The 1980 Turkish military coup was launched “to
bring peace to a polarized society where thousands of people were being killed on the streets,” according to the coup generals and their supporters. 
  1. 650,000 people were under arrest.
  2. 1,683,000 people were blacklisted.
  3. 230,000 people were judged in 210.000 lawsuits.
  4. 7,000 people were asked for the death penalty.
  5. 517 persons were sentenced to death.
  6. 50 of those given the death penalty were executed (26 political prisoners, 23 criminal offenders and 1 ASALA militant).
  7. The files of 259 people, which were asked for the death penalty, were sent to the National Assembly.
  8. 71,000 people were judged on account of the articles 141, 142 and 163 in Turkish Penal Code.
  9. 98,404 people were judged on charges of being members of a leftist, a rightist, a nationalist, a conservative, etc. organization.
  10. 388,000 people were not given a passport.
  11. 30,000 people were dismissed from their firms because they were suspects and therefore inconvenient.
  12. 14,000 people were removed from citizenship.
  13. 30,000 people went abroad as a political refugee.
  14. 300 people died in a suspicious manner.
  15. Documented that 171 people died by reason of torture.
  16. 937 films were banned because these were found objectionable.
  17. 23,677 associations had their activities stopped.
  18. 3,854 teachers, 120 lecturers and 47 judges were dismissed.
  19. 400 journalists were sentenced to a total of 3315 years’ imprisonment.
  20. 300 journalists were attacked.
  21. 3 journalists were shot dead.
  22. 300 days in which newspapers were not published.
  23. 303 cases were opened for 13 major newspapers.
  24. 39 tonnes of newspapers and magazines were destroyed.
  25. 299 people lost their lives in prison.
  26. 144 people died in a suspicious manner.
  27. 14 people died in a hunger strike.
  28. While fleeing, 16 people were shot.
  29. 95 people were killed in combat.
  30. “Natural death report” for 73 persons was given.
  31. The cause of death of 43 people was announced as “suicide”.
 This is how a military coup looks like Mr. Erdoğan .. and since none of the above happen in Egypt after June 30th we would like to advise you to keep your opinion to yourself and concern yourself more with the demands of your people who have took to the streets against your policies since May 31st and were and still are being brutally cracked down by your police .. one who has a house of glass should not throw stones at others .. especially if it is non of his concern .. or are you just terrified you will meet the same end of your colleague Morsi ?? Well, we think you should ..

Dear Mr. Obama - Regards From Egypt





We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.US Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776





watch the video & do your math .. 





Dear Mr. Obama,
For the past 15 years your CIA brains have been planning to change Egypt into another Iraq. Well, NICE TRY. You have FAILED. You don't understand a lot about Egypt, sir. Maybe you should ask your Kenyan Muslim relatives about the status of our country in the Holy Qur'an, or how Prophet Mohamed, peace be upon him, described our army. Egypt has been mentioned in our Holy Book five times, and is described as a secure country where people live in peace and harmony. Prophet Mohamed (pbuh) has described our soldiers as the best on the planet, stating clearly that our army and the Egyptian people remain united till the end of time .. In the Bible, the Egyptian people are described as the blessed nation of Jesus Christ .. So Mr. Obama, you can kindly oblige us by calling in your lady of doom Mrs. Anne Patterson back home to the USA, as she is no longer welcome in Egypt .. We hope you have learnt that not all countries yield to manipulation and that you should not attempt to spend the money of American tax payers creating dictatorships in countries of independence and sovereignty .. We call upon all Americans whom we know as a peace loving people to seriously investigate their government's sincere endeavors to aid terrorists imposing a fascist regime, is this what they pay taxes to achieve? Are these the human values upon which you have been elected??

Respectfully,
The Egyptian People

There were many open minds and a golden chance for the MB to prove that they were not the dictatorial theocratically twisted power grabbing inhuman creatures they proved to be after one year of a chance ..They have not kept their word one time, lied constantly, stole Egypt's resources & so many other treacherous acts ... never mind the fascist agenda which made heretics of Moslems all over Egypt and athiests of Christians ... they've had one year and done incredible damage ... even tourism which has flourished for at least 10 years has come to a total standstill .... most of those outside their ranks who voted for them to give them this chance are now kicking themselves for having done so ... everyone wanted to get rid of them before we drown totally and are no longer the Egypt we know .... this is the will of the people, this is ground level democracy in action .. In Italy they changed presidents maybe 7 times in the space of 4 years, in Greece 3 in 2 years ... it's not a phenomena .. what is a phenomena is to have between 33 to 50,000,000 people in the streets all over Egypt for nearly a week demanding the removal of this destructive government NOW and this after 2 months during which more than 22 million ballots were filled demanding their immediate step down ... Egypt was not being run by Mursi or the (hahahaha) "Freedom & Justice Party" but by the illegitimate Muslem Brotherhood, whose own founder, Hassan el Bana, regretted forming after the assasination of Nokrashy Pasha ...... this is the will of the Egyptian people and it is correct, accordingly, that the army and the police of the people, should act on behalf of the people who tried to remove this cult from power peacefully by demanding early elections after withdrawing confidence from them ...
Thanks to google satellite imagery - BBC World News reported a record-braking 33,000,00 Egyptians took to the streets – That's a LOT of people who had reached their absolute limit and demanded their country back from yet another authoritarian system - ousting a president and rejecting his political party and it's Islamist ideology – The Muslim Brotherhood had coveted the seat of power for over 80 years but it took them only 1 year to lose it! Just saying!

Never before did so many people in human history be so unified against a failed government .. As time will tell and its my deepest of hopes that Egypt can finally break the cycle of authoritarian rule!

Imagine what a nation can do if it channels all its energy from June 30th into building a representative government that’s by and for the people with a universal sense of justice and equality .. Like the pyramids – we're really good at doing the big stuff, it's the details that we need to get better at. But now we're back on track and showing the world - Egypt is not a religious state, we never have been and hopefully never will be again ..

Here are some amazing pictures to check out:

This is not a coup in all the languages of the world : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ugs_9bKCYdc

Egypt Today ..


EGYPT'S COUP, OR NOT? The events in Egypt today have put the country on a path towards a very insecure future. President Morsi has been ousted by the military forces who have formally declared their commitment to the freedom of expression and the freedom of the media, wasting no time undermining their own claims by immediately closing down three local TV stations that were affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood, even arresting the crew of the Misr25 channel. General al-Sisi stated that the armed forces have responded to the cries for help of the Egyptian people, and in a sense they have. Without the support of the military the masses on the street could never have ousted the increasingly authoritarian Morsi. Even now, the former president refuses to admit his loss and has released a statement in which he asks the people to reject the military coup d'état and asks the population not to respond to it - oblivious to the millions and millions of exuberant Egyptians flocking the streets as we speak. In order to prevent an irreparable rupture from dividing Egyptian society, the army has to make clear that there is a future for the Muslim Brotherhood within political arena, but fears are that it is already too late. Reports of clashes between supporters and opponents of Morsi, and attacks from both camps feed fears of a civil conflict. At the time it is impossible to say whether we have witnessed a coup d'état by the Egyptian military, it all depends on which route they will take from here. If they abide by the rules set out by their 'roadmap', all could end well. If, however, they will be corrupted by the taste of power they have now experienced, and decide to demand a larger piece of the national pie (of which they already own 25%!) the revolutionary story of Egypt is all but over.

We Are Egypt .. And We Are Angry ..




Mohamed Raouf Ghoneim
Dear friends - chers amis - liebe Freunde - cari amici - queridos amigos. To everyone around the world - from EGYPT:

We Egyptians are hitting the streets today SIMPLY because we have decided that we will not let Egypt become another Iran or Afghanistan, or even Saudi Arabia or any other country. Egypt is Egypt, and we decided that it will always stay Egypt. We will stay peaceful cheerful humble loving human beings. We will stay Moslems and Christians, living side by side in peace and harmony. And our country will remain a place where human beings are FREE to wear as they wish, FREE to act as they wish, FREE to pray as they wish, FREE to play as they wish. We Egyptians believe that God created us FREE, and that we must fight till the day we die, to remain FREE. 

That's why we Egyptians have decided TODAY - June 30th 2013 - that we will not be ruled anymore by the religious fascist regime of Mohamed Morsi and his Moslem Brotherhood. 
And just so you know who and what we are up against, we are fighting against a regime that wants a radicalized society and seeks a fanatic religious orientation for our country as a first step towards their goal which they openly call world domination. 
We are fighting against a regime that uses poverty and ignorance to mislead poor Egyptians to believe their lie that they are the representatives of Islam in the global war to defend it against the bad infidel Western Christian world. 
We are fighting against a regime that believes in political assassinations as a way of reaching goals, and which has killed many politicians and public figures and writers and thinkers because they tried to liberate minds and steer Egyptians away from extremism and ignorance.
We are fighting against a regime that has its fingers even in your own home country and has spread its influence to reach your politicians and your presidents, so that they ignore everything they know about them and consider them legitimate, thus handing us over to them, and putting you also in direct danger of their terrorist acts, right at your back door. 
We are fighting against a regime that has been involved in terrorist acts and bombings and mass slaughter and killings from Barcelona to London to New York to Madrid to Berlin as well as right here at home in Sharm El Sheikh and Cairo and Luxor - each time murdering and massacring innocent defenseless civilians for their filthy cause. 

We don't expect this to be easy at all, but we will take this fight till the bitter end. And no matter what pictures the media show you, be sure that our EGYPTIAN revolution started peaceful, and will stay peaceful all the way, and no matter what those terrorists in power are planning to do to fight us, we will stand still with no arms in hand but our bare fists, and no weapons in our bags but our belief in freedom, and our determination to reach our aim only through PEACEFUL RESISTANCE. 

So dear friends, now that you know what's happening in my country, please please spread the word about us, and PRAY FOR US, that is all we ask of you. Thank you and GOD BLESS ALL.

A proud EGYPTIAN
