Anonymous Coward User ID: 30804336 United States 07/10/2013 12:12 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | An Israeli journalist has a newsletter. All of the prominent Egyptian English-speaking bloggers/pundits contributed to a special issue on the upcoming June 30th protests (it was published June 16th). This article dealt with the impact that Morsi's call for Jihad in Syria had on the movement - This speech will go down in history as the speech laying the foundation of the Sunni-Zionist alliance against Iran, and also being the realisation of Israeli PM Netanyahu’s wildest fantasy: Egypt and Jihadists versus Iran, Syria and Hezbollah, with Israel not being a part of the equation. As one Israeli opinion writer puts it, Israel should stay out of this and “let them (Arabs) kill themselves quietly”. Needless to say, this will never work: The Egyptian army is too lazy to get involved in such a war, and the Salafis are not biting, with the Al-Nour Party issuing a scathing critique against the speech and initiative, calling it a distraction put forth by a fledgling regime so desperate to change the conversation from national issues to foreign policy.... In the eyes of the Muslim Brotherhood, this speech was supposed to be Morsi’s “Nasser moment”, creating a foreign policy conflict that supersedes any internal squabbles, but Morsi is at best a Wannabe Nasser, and this will not work, because the average Egyptian is so overwhelmed with his daily struggle for survival that the notion of Egypt being involved in any conflict outside of the country is simply outrageous" [link to www.inss.org.il.cdn.reblaze.com] Now, a month later, we know that Morsi's call for Jihad was the deciding factor in his downfall. This was moment Generals decided he needed to go. We also know that this was the exact time that Egypt started experiencing severe gasoline shortages, which strengthened the Tamarod movement. Those shortages ended as soon as the military removed Morsi. So who sabotaged the grand Sunni alliance & why? more links to follow |

Those include the widening rift between ex-President Mohamed Morsi and Egyptian military commander-in-chief Abdel Fattah al-Sisi due to Morsi's decision to completely cut off relations with Syria and his patronage of a conference where Wahhabi preachers declared that conducting Jihad in Syria is a duty.

By Thursday, traffic jams were again at their worst, with people complaining of commutes taking hours. Worried about escalating tensions with the gas shortage hitting the country before protests planned for June 30, many offices have been letting their employees stay home in preceding days.

It is not clear what is causing the delay. Administration officials have said they will vet rebel groups to ensure that weapons don't fall into the hands of al-Qaeda-affiliated opposition forces. Meanwhile, forces loyal to President Bashar Assad are placing pressure on rebels in Homs, a strategic city that lays astride supply lines into Damascus from the Mediterranean.

Aton User ID: 40884424 France 07/10/2013 03:45 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | That's not to say that 'christianity' or Judaism is any better. Quoting: Jazzed Look at christianity now...their worship is pagan. Their 'holy days' are pagan. It has become a diluted, misdirected and bastardized religion of men. Now, there is 'chrislam'. It is uniting with the beast. Judaism has been united with the beast since Moshe Dyan gave the temple mount back to the moslems. Since HaShem gave the order to 'kill all the inhabitants thereof and possess the land' and the people didn't do it. The beast has many heads and many crowns. It devours and it will rule, for a season. Mingling. COME OUT OF HER MY PEOPLE. You did not read my thread, or you did not understand it, or you understood it, but you rejected it. I read the old testament. You know that scripture is dating back X000 years ago ? You know that people at the time, and more scriptures likes this, were having a different meaning of language. The same is true for the bible. Difficult to describe and explain, in a way you may understand: We are people, on this earth we have a foot into this earth, and another one into heaven. To leave this earth for good, is to lead a life and a belief that is of love. Because love is a state of mind, which changes your soul and makes to evolve your spirit in you. Once you die you live with this fruit of your life. As you might understand, I am talking about "christianism". You confuse "catholisme" or "protetantisme" or whatever with christianisme. The difference is simple: christianism believes in god, the other ones belong to an institution, with some guy telling everybody what to believe or not. To come back to the scriptures: you will easily understand them, if your foot is in heaven, then you read them with a different eye. In fact some voice in your head is explaining it, without words. Since you do not understand the book, accept it for another life, or go get your foot in heaven. But do not come here to preach things that are not given to you. Get modest in your life, my sister, become like water, flow and always listen to love, not fear, hatred or anything else. Normally your father is taking care of you, always, you are his child. And how much do we love our children, and your father loves you even more than you love your children. You are gods child. Come home. I understood your thread. I reject the new age Oneness Theory. For one very important reason: There is NONE greater than HaShem. NONE equal. We can be SONS of G-d. Nothing else. As for coming here and 'preaching', I only share what I've been shown. Who are you to tell me what that is or isn't? Or who revealed it? Were you present? Is yours the only voice of truth? Are you any more immune to the musings of your own mind than the rest of us? Humility is ordered of EVERY man. It is hypocritical of you to preach your beliefs and then admonish me for sharing mine simply because they differ from your own. REBORN my friend. AS A CHILD. NOT an equal. It was HERE that G-d first placed man. It was HERE that G-d first walked with him. It was HERE that G-d sent His Son. It is HERE where Yeshua will reign upon His return. It is HERE that we have been placed to live, to learn and to grow in wisdom. And it is HERE that all sin will be judged. Heaven itself will be destroyed and replaced. Why? It too has been corrupted. REBIRTH. So that we may be called Sons of G-d. Shalom. I don't think we have a difference in belief. Didn't know that my belief system equals to the jewish one. I don't follow "belief institutions" very much. At least not when they tell you, what to believe or do. I am happy. Thank you. |
