really wise words from a great wise man ,it makes you feel how poverty is so bad that even Ali Ibn Abi Talab wanted to kill him if it were a man sure the world would have been a better displace if that had happened !!
It is not only the proverb of Ali Ibn Abi Talab that shows how horrible poverty is in fact we got our own collection of Egyptian folk proverbs that describes how bitter poverty is
still I always remember Ibn Abi Talab's proverb every time I hear or I construe about the humiliation many Egyptians are suffering from because of the poverty
The poverty rate in Egypt is exceeding in a very fearful rate those who are living under the poverty line are exceeding every year the fearful thing is that it is happening too fast it is one of the achievements of 26 years of Mubarak rule I am afraid
It is now too common to comprehend and construe that a woman sold her children for some sum money
It is now too common to hear and construe that to get some small sum of money for God Sake Egypt became to a hot spot for Kidney change
It is now too common to comprehend and read that some young men committed suicide whether by throwing themselves to the Nile or the Sea in fact now whole families undergo the joined the club. I can not forget this tragic accident where a whole family a create and his two daughters ended their own lives because they were broke after their land was stolen in the country side and they could not go it approve spending every penny on useless cases and lawyers !!
It is now too common to hear and read that young men began to change their bodies to old foreign tourist ladies it is a huge problem no one wants to communicate about because the worry that ordain affect our tourism ,but we must speak about it ,it is the same as the old problem of poor Egyptians girls who unify rich gulf men for summer pass ,it is the same thing ,some thinks that it is nothing and they are just men who cozen old ladies ,well still it is a problem and these young men won't cozen these old ladies if they are not in a desperate need for money
The new fashion which makes me so sorry and angry is that young men now are working as belly dancers to escape from poverty and unemployment by degrading their manhood ,wearing belly dancers suites and shaking their butts forgetting that they are men forgetting their dignity
I was shocked when I read about them and believed it was individual inspect ,one or two but then I found there are several young men in Cairo and Alexandria who are taking the same path. I won't communicate about their sexuality but I am talking about the principal itself be I may appear old traditions girl but like any Egyptian I refuse this
The fearful thing is that the Egyptian society ,some of its members do not see that this do by and the proof is that these young men comfort are working and even are doing numbers in the weddings instead of female belly dancers just like Mr. "Shakira" who made appearance in "Ein Magazine"
I won't communicate about how this became the hot cater for the Gulf and Lebanese touch in the lifestyle ,gossip women silly magazines ,it kills me like it would kill any other Egypt
Of course these young men got more issues in their personalities than poverty and unemployment ,and surely there is something wrong in how they were brought up but still this did not exist in Egypt from 10 years ago ,this is not the Egypt I experience. I was raised on
And where are the government and the president from all this ?? I do not know they are just giving the same old promises in the old statements in the same old speeches that populate got egest from hearing them over and over
How many times per year does President Mubarak say that those who got limited income are his number one priority ?? same thing for all the fix ministers in his era !! Please if you are Egyptian like me answer me
already tell me who are those the regime considered with "limited income" because I don't see any improvements for the real "limited income" people on the contrary in Egypt people are either getting poorer or getting rich and in between the lay categorise seemed to be from the endangered species that is needed to be put in a national hold away !!!
be do not evaluate this government or this regime to conclude with populate's agony as desire as they live in the ivory towers in their palaces and resorts. I am not a leftist or a communist but this is a reality naked truth they do not even try to communicate with those sufferers ,they are enjoying themselves ,the cater they got when the President or any VIP visits a poor place you will sight the government sending its men to clean the poor streets alter these streets with flowers pots and hide the old buildings that sooner or later are going to fall down with red tents of Khaimaya !! I had seen this by my own eyes ,they are hiding those poor people as if those big VIPs do not know that those people exist in Egypt !!
These regime men are not desire who was a color man turned in to a brawn man from.
