The red cross denial is no proof

I don’t believe the red cross and I don’t care what they say because I have got my people’s testimonies and they can’t be liars , my people for the great people of Sinai ,from Al-Arish who buried the POWs by their hands  and know the place of mass graves till our day

My people from the POWs who survived ,whether those who managed to escape or those who survived the hell of Atlit

If they don’t believe my people I don’t care

They got the Israeli confessions of General Biro in 1956 stating clearly as sun what he did from war crimes  against not military but also Egyptian civilians

They can prove if they want , but they don’t same like the Egyptian regime

Today Egyptian Foreign minister talked in TV on air about this report and he was so nervous and angry in a strange way I don’t why , he kept speaking for himself the revenge of those POWs was taken in 1973 war , well he was speaking for himself not for the majority of the Egyptian people

he received the report of the red cross and sent it to the assembly to be discussed and soon officially the scenario of what happened in 1995 from closing the discussion about the POWs will happen

I promise I will not close it

Egyptian Remembrance day

This is an invitation for all Egyptians inside and outside to make the 5th of June every year as the Egyptian Remembrance Day just like the British Remembrance Day to remember our POWs who were killed during the war . Let’s turn our defeat day in to a day to remember those who were killed in one of the modern history worst genocides.

Let’s go on this day with our children and in our hands an original Egyptian Red Rose that drunk from the water of the Nile and blossomed in the soil of Egypt to put it on the memorial of the unknown soldier memorial in Medinat Nasr and in every soldier memorial in every Goveronate in Egypt

Let’s put in our clothes a poppy lapel pin just like the British do , Let’s wear it for a week from the 5th of June to the 10th of June as a tribute ofpoppy respect to those Men who were killed away from their beloved one but not away from their home

Let’s make this day for the POWs ,it is not important to wait for the government recognition , already the government is still investigating all those years despite the survivals ,despite the mass graves , despite the eye witnesses and despite the confession of those who committed the crimes

We should not wait the government to remember the POWs , already I believe the governments all those years forgot them because We did , so We must remember them again , we must remember least we forget .

Let’s be the change we want to see in the world , let’s start this year with a small red lapel pin in our clothes , you and me may be the first two , but next year there will be 10 and the following year it will a poppy lapel pin with an official recognition from the people not from the government

I know that there is an already Egyptian remembrance day on the 9th of March , a tribute to the martyrs who died in war on the same day that General Abdel Munim Riad ,the commander of the Egyptian arm forces was killed on the Suez Canal front yet this day who seemed to be forgotten by all is not from the POWs , it is for the great fighters

We must remember the POWs and let the world know them and what happened

And we will do this by ourselves let’s this year and it is the 40th anniversary stop whinnying and blaming and do a real action , an action of a new generation who refuses to sit down and do nothing except repeating over and over the story to the mirror , not screaming out of the window

A red lapel pin won’t cost nothing at all whether from time or cost , it is smallest nothing to those men who paid the cost of their lives for this country

Big fight in the assembly because of the POWs

Unfortunately I missed watching this session of the Egyptian assembly on air yesterday , now I guess it was edited to remove all what happened in it .Yesterday Foreign minister “Ahmed El-Gait” attended the meeting with the assembly members to discuss the updates of the POWs case and to discuss his statement about it , yet it didn’t go easy at all , it turned in to some kind of war of the world between the foreign minister and the MPs to become a historical session as the for the first time a foreign minister in Egypt would face such attack in the assembly.

The MPs accused the minister of ignoring the case where as the minister defended his position explaining the difficulty of the case as we can’t go to the international criminal court because it doesn’t look in cases that took place before the year 2002 , fact that is mentioned in the law section

Since then the arguments began ,the minister also hinted to fact I didn’t know before that if we want a special criminal court like the court of the war crimes that happened in Yugoslavia needs a special order for the security council and of course this would be like a mission impossible as the minister hinted.

It will be met with a veto from some of the permanent member countries in the council , if not most of them or all of them ,I don’t need to speak more.

 This did n’t like many MPs especially the minister was nervous that MP Mohamed Abd El-Fatah Omar from the National Security committee asked how , the minister answered angrily that because we have relations with other countries and we don’t need to burn it and that he couldn’t speak in front of the television and media, then the minister paused for a while and asking again even more angrier whether if the MP needed to know why the Russian federation would refuse and that he wouldn’t say because of the television , the head of the assembly Fatahi Sorror said that he could order to make it a close session but the suggestion was refused “well thank God it wasn’t accepted because then we couldn’t know exactly what happened in that stormy session”

The arguments continued and turned in to a confront between the minister and MP Rageb Hamida reached to the level that Minister “Abu El-Gait” described the talk of the MP as “Nonsense” which made the later answered or rather fired back saying that the Minister was a “Nonsense man” with a support from the other MPs that made both the head of the assembly and the minister of the parliament affairs try to calm things down.

And they succeeded in that thank Goodness. The foreign minister than apologized for his behavior and confirmed that he and the Egyptian foreign ministry refused to get one penny from Israeli as compensation for the POWs of 1967 and 1956 As if Israel is ready to pay !! because

Egypt is one who pays for its sons who scarified their lives for her !!

Already he didn’t shut here ,but continued saying what made the headlines in newspapers like Daily El-Dostor as a parody

I was going to kill myself from sadness on what happened for the Egyptian POWs on the 10th of June 1967

Just for the record the Egyptians didn’t know what happened to their sons on the 10th of June 1967 because the war was just started on the 5th and President Nasser presented his resignation on the 9th and after that there was the mini war between Nasser and Amar ,So I don’t know how he knew about what happened to our men in Sinai in that short time !!

From their side; the MPs accused the ministry to be weak that it gave up the Egyptian rights for the sake of Israel to the extent that our diplomats are being attacked abroad and that Saudi Arabia took the leadership from us and they requested that the statements of the Foreign ministry to hold some more dignity and strength than what they are now.

The head of the Parliament “Fatahi Sorror” said that he requested from the Euro Mediterranean parliament to investigate the case and requested also from the Egyptian parliament to form a  permanent committee ,its membership will include the MPs and officials from the Foreign ministry to document all the evidences that prove the Israeli guilt.

As you can see it was one hell of a session , you know I am surprised that MP “Mustafa Bakery” wasn’t among the angry MPs !!

Seriously if you want my opinion technically what the Minister said about the international court and the security council is unfortunately true ,already you can check the Laws section to know more and of course we don’t need to speak about the Israeli influence in the security Council , it is enough now that last year the security council did anything against the Israeli crimes in Lebanon because of the American support , it is something well known

But I disagree with him regarding the compensation , those men and their families are not less than the Holocaust victims and survivals with my all respect to them

Also I agree that the minister and the ministry are not doing their job as expected from them not only regarding this sensitive issue but other issues that made Egypt actually to lose its position in the Arab world to the Saudi Arabia.

Another thing I don’t respect the circus that happened yesterday starting by the minister and the MPs ,seriously the assembly has traditions to be respected

They are studying the case !!

According to this news in Arabic president Mubarak gave his order to the Foreign ministry to study “The exact meaning in Arabic” the POWs Case with its both legal and political parts

This was the statement of Foreign minister in front of the Foreign and Arabic affairs committees in the assembly yesterday

He also said very important statement I believe it should be highlighted

Having Peace with Israel doesn’t mean that we will give up our dignity or rights

This really good and promising but I hope it would go beyond the “study”

Yom HaShoah of Egyptian POWs

Yesterday Israel celebrated the Yom HaShoah “The Remembrance day for the Holocaust and Heroism”.

I have nothing this and I am not from the camp that dedicated his or her to suspect that the Holocaust took place despite the fact I do believe it took place but in less number

Anyhow I wonder when we will have our “Yom Hashoah” in Egypt to remember the Holocaust victims of Egyptian POWs in 1967 , oh yes we had our own holocaust back in 1967

In Al-Arish and in Gaza cities as places

Egyptian POWs as the victims

and those who celebrated the Yom HaShoah yesterday the 16th of April as the victimizers

Please read this part from the Al-Arish people testimonies’ section and remember our officers and Soldiers who were burned alive and till now got now museum or a special day for remembrance

Bad News and Good News

I have got Bad News and Good News as I think I will start with the Bad news before the Good news as I always do

The bad news I found out that Egypt can’t use the international criminal court not because it doesn’t prosecute in the crimes that took place before 2002 but because Egypt already is not a member , The Egyptian government signed it but didn’t ratify on it till now ,same thing for Israel who accused the ICC to be influenced by some countries !!

You can check the updates in the Law section

The good news is better , in fact it is a scoop in my humble opinion

The USS Liberty again whose crew came supporting Israel and left attacking the IDF and its governemtn till now

The files and the records of the USS Liberty may hold the solid evidence that proves our men in Al-Arish were killed in what is considered in the international laws as crime wars , already it is proved in the congress records that there were mass murders occured against the Egyptian POWs Yes it is ,and you can check it here in this website for the first time in an Egyptian Website

I am so thrilled with the findings I found regarding the USS Liberty and more thrilled to tell you that this year more files and records will be released this year from the NSA according to the law

Please spread the news really spread the news it is very important

The Egyptian POWs … Blood that didn’t dry yet !!

A very interesting article that reflects what the majority of Egyptian thinks and feels regarding the Egyptian POWs

It is written in Arabic by Mr. Ahmed Marzok and it is published in the Egyptian News portal Filbalad , which is one of the most popular and successful fast growing websites not only in Egypt but in the Arab world

I highy recommend reading it

I will try to translate it , I won’t depend upon the bad google Arabic / English translation because lots of words will lose their meaning

 By the way expect more updates soon as there is an important good discovery I found in the USS liberty incident

10 Billion for the 1967 POWs ,but what about the 1956

More than 20 members in The Egyptian Shura Council requested the discussion of the Egyptian Official policy regarding the 1967 Egyptian POWs issue. They also wanted to study the possibility of having a suite case in front of the Egyptian courts against Ban Eliezer , the minister of housing in Israel and the former Shaked unit, who was accusing of murdering 250 Egyptian POWs during the six days war, they wanted to know the policy of the Ministry of Justice in having law suites by the general attorney against Eliezer according to the panels law if the massacre happened on the Egyptian land

They demanded too Israel to pay 10 billion American dollar for the 1967 POWs who were murdered by the IDF in Al-Arish.

The head of the Shura Council “Sawfot El-Sherif” sent these requests to the Arabic affairs and Security committee

Well this is fine and good but what about those who were not killed in Al-Arish ,those who were killed across Sinai not to mention those great men who were murdered in the 1956 Suez War !!!

Another thing Eliezer won’t think to put a foot step in Egypt after the request or the demand ‘you can call what ever ‘ of General Omar Soliman not to visit Egypt sooner or later and there is even fear in Israel that he can be arrested if he comes to Egypt so what is the use

The best way is to good outside not inside , going international instead of national

Updates

Sorry for the lack of the updates in the past last couple of weeks I got busy with the referendum and the Arab Summit , the good thing that I got more and more coming in the way insh Allah

  1. The photos section in the 1967 is opened , from the photos you can see the huge numbers of the POWs and the humiliation they suffered from.
  2. The Laws section is updated with new information regarding the Camp David accords and the International crime court.
  3. The Al-Arish People testimonies section is also updated with several testimonies that go back to 1995

There is also a news update from Egypt regarding the official reaction , Mofid Shaab, the minister of legal affairs of the assembly said yesterday that Egypt requested the red cross to investigate the case officially, this statement came after accusations of the parliament members to the government and the foreign minister of being lazy

Source : AL-Masryon e-newspaper

Comment: This is not the first time Egypt requests the red cross to investigate and it is not the first time the red cross investigates the case ,it did in 1995 and already according to eye witnesses the red cross knew about the war crimes that happened in the six days war since 1967 , in 1995 they found mass graves and they didn’t do anything to be really mentioned .

Already this is not a bad step but not an effective one , it is essential to make the world believes us as our creditability is not as before and thus an international proof is required ,but we shouldn’t act as if it were the only way
