CAIRO: When reading the official transcripts of the investigation held with Egypt’s toppled president, I had nothing to do but to be in a state of disbelief. Hosni Mubarak’s answers varied from “I don’t know” to “this is not true.” Out of the blue, the president himself had no idea about what was going on [...]
Egyptian Parliamentary candidates didn’t show up with campaigns as what was expected. The situation now is all about tackling who will be Egypt’s next president without much concern being paid to Parliamentary candidates. At their side, they haven’t given any considerable effort that could be mentioned. While in countries like the United States for instance, [...]
CAIRO: Virginity tests recently confirmed by the army on female protesters who had been arrested on March 9 have spurred controversy, yet have been faced by an extreme antagonism by many Egyptians. In investigating the motives of such unprecedented action it came to our surprise in a period where we supposedly enjoy a great deal [...]
CAIRO: The sooner I think empowerment of the Egyptian woman is on its way to ending the deteriorating mentality that has dominated for years, the more frustrating it is to see how it is still a far away dream. Even if some claimed they do support women, their mentality is still acting in the opposite [...]
Current religious tensions in Egypt could be described by some as chaos. I, however, see it as an initial sign that something radical is taking place in Egypt. These bubbles rising to the surface have been suppressed for many years. Perhaps they are rising now in a desperate attempt for attention before they explode. It [...]
CAIRO: Seemingly, Egypt’s ex-president Hosni Mubarak is still having all the privileges in his suite in Sharm el-Sheikh’s international hospital although supposedly being in detention after facing charges of killing protesters. His security guards are not allowing anyone to take photos of the ousted president nor his wife. Even in a trial, one of the [...]
Cairo: In an unprecedented scene in the history of Egyptian football, violence was the main player between Egypt’s el-Zamalek team and the Tunisian team on Saturday. The match between the two teams was going well and there were many hopes that the Egyptian team could make it to African champion league. It was described as [...]
CAIRO: Crowds of Salafist Muslims demonstrated outside the State Council in Cairo on Tuesday, demanding the release of Camilia Shehata. Shehata is the wife of a Coptic Christian Priest and disappeared mysteriously last summer, then was found at a friend’s home a few days later. The Coptic Church accused a group of Muslims of kidnapping [...]
CAIRO: Following an attack on prominent Egyptian opposition figure Mohamed ElBaradei during last week’s referendum, some ElBaradei supporters organized a march to deliver a thank-you message to ElBaradei. His supporters apologized for what happened, saying some people could not distinguish between their right to express their views and not violating those rights or the rights [...]
Radical changes have been taking place in Egypt. After the approval of constitutional amendments on Saturday, parliamentary elections will likely occur soon. This calls back the debate over quotas previously allocated to women and farmers by law. According to law, 64 seats are devoted to Egyptian women, and two farmers should be elected from each [...]
CAIRO: Egyptians voted in favor of proposed constitutional amendments by an overwhelming 77.2 percent in Saturday’s referendum. Results were announced on Sunday evening. Voter participation exceeded 41 percent, four times the percentage of voters in November’s parliamentary elections. Out of 45 million people eligible to vote, 18,537,000 citizens cast a ballot. The high rate of [...]
