I grew up on a repetitive record that ‘Egypt is targeted by enemies’, but never understood exactly who are those enemies?! To be more precise, as much as we hear this record we could not take it serious any more. Maybe because that we had a regime tried to blame most of its failure to deliver prosperity and achievements by saying that our country is always targeted and when the crisis hit the fingers turn towards the biggest boggy creature called ‘Israel’.
I have to blame ourselves for being naive for not taking this idea so serious, but I also have to blame the entire system both politicians and media to distract us and participate into a systematic propaganda which helped to drive us to lose faith and trust. I am talking here mostly on the state media and I will show you later why the private media found it a lot easier to manipulate us.
I am not going to exasperate you with the reasons of why Egypt is very important strategic country either politically or geographically, but I will try in this report to illuminate the light on how Egypt has been targeted and the plan to bring it down has been going for many years.
First I have to thank and apologise to my father, eng. Mahmoud Anwar. Thank him for his help and his efforts for years and years to teach us and make us aware of the present and coming danger which is internally and externally. I apologise for not fully listening to him and to his attempts of open different window to see this equation from a different angle. But as I said before we all know that Egypt is targeted but we have lost sense of the scale of this plan as we have lost faith in a regime that used this record for many years to suppress and control us.
Let’s start from the beginning, shall we!
Years ago I have stumbled over an Egyptian talk show called ‘’Alqaheraalyoum’’ on Orbit network. I have to admit that I liked the program a lot and not because of the presenter himself but the idea that I live outside Egypt for long time and i missed to get a grasp of what is going on the ground there. I had no idea that Egyptian media has become more independent. I was amazed (Well at the beginning at least) that Egypt has got a strong programs that can criticise the government and reflect on people’s day to day problems. After a while I started to realise that there are plenty of private channels and networks in Egypt and they all got their own talk shows some are pure political some are mixtures of both Social and Political.
I watched these specific programs for months and months and everyday I can see through the internet the rates of its audience increasing dramatically. I could not put my hands exactly why I do like to watch these programs and why a lot of Egyptians across the world do as well. Maybe as my father says ‘’EL mozee3 beystazraf awo beytfalsef’’, as a lot of Egyptians, we like comedians and don’t take our problems too serious most of the time.
In November 2009 the entire Egyptian Media including Amr Adeeb program started a huge wild campaign against Algeria as a country and claimed that the Algerians football fans were killing Egyptians in Sudan, remember there was not one piece of evidence or picture to prove their claims. Months after these severe campaigns and media messages we have found out that it was all lies and false accusations. I lost faith again in the hope to have independent credible private media and I have become more aware that there two camps running the show. One camp complies and runs by the regime and the other one, which is bigger, runs by spies agencies and collaborators from inside directed by international agencies.
Now most of you will say ‘’ah! Another cliché, we have heard these ones million times’’. It is true. For instance; most of us realised how Aljazeera has strong agenda to target Egypt and destroy its role and position as a leading country in the region, but their conjuring was not going anywhere, therefore the external forces had to find another way to implement their plan to control the region, but this time internally.
The ‘Operation Change’ has to sweep the region, but it will be a lot easier to come from within as the military choices are very costly and not hundred percent effective to establish a new regime that comply with the ‘Western Interests’.
Under many different slogans from ‘’Human Rights, Democracy, Freedom, etc’’ these agencies managed to create a huge networks to spread amid the Egyptian society and especially the middle educated class. These educated youths are easier to be attracted to these international groups because of our former regime stupidity, stubbornness and ignoring public demands for many years.
As part of the plan, those intelligent agencies will spread their spies and collaborators in every seen and heard platform to increase the feeling of frustration and anger. Their mission is to expose the worst of the worst of this country and to mobilizing people towards the unknown.
During my discussion with my friend Fadia Al Mousa, she has pointed out a very important piece of information regarding ‘Freedom house-new generation’. Haven’t heard of it?!! Well brace yourself!
New Generation Fellows Take Part in Exchange Program
Sources – http://www.freedomhouse.org
April 13, 2007
‘’As part of Freedom House's New Generation of Advocates program, seventeen fellows from North Africa have been selected to take part in a training and exchange program focusing on strengthening advocacy skills. These emerging democratic leaders, who work as lawyers, bloggers, journalists, professors and human rights activists, are currently participating in training on civic engagement in Amman, Jordan. When the training finishes next week, eleven fellows will be coming to the U.S. while seven will fly to Europe.In Washington, D.C., and Budapest, Hungary, these activists will spend a week visiting with governmental, nongovernmental and media organizations to learn how these institutions work in a democratic environment. Afterwards, the activists will be placed in fellowships with non-profit organizations around the country and throughout Europe which work on advocacy campaigns, press freedom, torture prevention and community activism. The fellows’ final week will be spent back in Washington and Budapest, discussing their fellowships and determining how their experiences can be applied to their work at home.
The New Generation of Advocates program supports young civil society activists who are working for peaceful political change in the Middle East and North Africa, primarily through professional fellowships in the U.S. and Central and Eastern Europe’’.
The “New Generation” program is “supported by funds from the US State Department and the US Agency for International Development (USAID).” It has provided Egyptian fellows the opportunity to work with Americans and “hone” skills so they can become “social and political reformers.”
This organisation and many others have been working very hard and very effectively in the Middle East for the last 6 – 7 years. It has been recruiting several ‘’bloggers & activists’’ from all over. Their apparent objectives are to help the suppressed communities in the developing countries to have their say and participate in the decision making. The hidden objectives are to use the ambitious youths and minds and manipulate their dreams to cause the chaos and the spread a blurry picture for the future, in order to drive the region on parallel directions towards so called ‘’Change’’.
One of these bloggers is ‘Esraa Abdul Fattah’, remember this name?!
Esraa worked as a human resources administrator, when she ‘co-founded’ April 6 Youth Movement Egypt in 2008, a Facebook group that was made to support the workers in El-Mahalla El-Kubra, an industrial town, who were planning to strike on April 6. This group gradually became a popular political movement.
When Esraa was arrested or as the entire media love to call it disappeared, frenzy in the media to release the activist. Here appear Amr Adeeb and many more on 17th April 2009, as part of the intelligent agencies to lead the campaign to release Esraa at once and to create a heroic (Jean De Arch) image that fights for the public
The Frenetic campaign extends to the international media to polish her image and glorify her role such as the Post Gazette and The Washington Post.
A s I have published in February 2011 on my blog SofianScoop the following Wikileaks top secret cables from the US embassy in Cairo, I will repeat part of this cable regard the New Generation and Freedom House
‘’Prominent Egyptian blogger XXXXXXXXXXXXX, contacted us November 17 to report that YouTube removed from his website two videos exposing police abuses -- one of Sinai bedouin allegedly shot by police and thrown in a garbage dump during the past week's violence (ref A), and the other of a woman being tortured in a police station. XXXXXXXXXXXXX told us that YouTube is also preventing XXXXXXXXXXXX from posting new videos, and asked us for assistance in urging YouTube to re-post his removed videos and reinstate his access to uploading new material. XXXXXXXXXXXXX said XXXXXXXXXXXXXX has tried to contact Google, but has not received a response.
In December 2007, DRL and Embassy Cairo worked to convince Google to restore XXXXXXXXXXXXX' YouTube access after a similar incident. We believe that a similar Department intervention with Google representatives could help in restoring XXXXXXXXXXXXX' access again. XXXXXXXXXXXXis an influential blogger and human rights activist, and we want to do everything we can to assist him in exposing police abuse. XXXXXXXXXXXXX' post of a video showing two policemen sodomizing a bus driver was used as the main evidence to convict the officers in November 2007 (ref C).
The most interesting part of 08CAIRO2371 is perhaps this section:
(SBU) The group included bloggers, journalists, activists from secular opposition parties such as El-Ghad and the Democratic Front Party and movements such as "Kifaya" and "April 6. A lawyer for the group confirmed that a French activist was among the detainees. Some of the detainees are participants in Freedom House's "New Generation" program which provides training for young activists. One member of the group departed for Washington January 18 to participate in a Project on Middle East Democracy program. Contacts confirmed that activist and El-Ghad party member Israa Abdel Fattah was also part of the group. (Note: Abdel Fattah was the subject of headlines in April 2008 when she was arrested and detained for 17 days after her call for an April 6 general strike on Facebook attracted almost 70,000 members (ref B). Following her release, she renounced her activities in a television interview, and has remained out of public view until now. End note.’’
Again I have to stress that I am not saying that Esraa or others are particularly spies or traitors, maybe some of them are, especially those who are politically driven to gain position in the New World Order. I am pointing out that most of these youths have been used and dragged into a bigger war they have no experience in what so ever.
Again i am not defending the former regime of Mubarak as they were brutal and autocratic system to the bones.
The motives are great and the cause sounds promising; ‘’Democracy, Freedom of speech, Freedom of Journalism, Human Rights, Women Rights, Justice for all, etc’’, but the truth is, the aim is to gain absolute control by the super power.
Whether you agree or disagree with certain move is not the problem. The problem is that we have become divided into two camps either with ‘Tahrir Sq.’ or with the former regime. I think this is the dilemma that the majority of us have fallen for due the lack of or none political experience. We have become as exactly as George Bush tyranny regime did when they were threaten the entire world; ‘’you either with us or against us’’. This The US that is calling for democracy and freedom. Is the same U.S. who is funding freedom programs throughout the Middle East and train its youths how to run a revolution or in another word create a havoc and atrocity.
