By toppling the democratically elected (faulty) government--and bringing back the VERY SAME Mubarak regime--
Even though it was undeniably a military coup, it saved the country from falling into an abyss that it might've never recovered from, or would take decades to recover from. You need to understand the bigger picture, or at least look at it objectively. These were very trying times, post revolution, where the county was tethering on the brink of collapse. So it's not as easy as 123.
And sure enough...Egypt went to shit afterwards. A shithole that nobody cares about anymore..
Actually the opposite happened. You should pay more attention to what's been going on if you wish to criticize Egypt and us Egyptians. We're open to criticism, just not ignorant criticism.
Egyptians are no Turks...
Nothing against Turks, but I'm glad for that. We are our own people, just like Pakistanis are no Indians and vice versa. Every country has its problems and has to deal with them, this happens to be ours and it will be dealt with. Why the comparison to Turkey and the sucking up to it? They're battling what they label terrorism in the Kurds as well, refugees from Syria and a major border issue so it's no cakewalk for them either. And many would say Erdogan is a bigger dictator than Sisi and is doing that by consolidating power through intimidation in pushing reforms. Sisi has actually gone against the Egyptian parliament's wishes to extend the presidential term from 4 to 6 years. Dictator, you say?
While dumb Egyptians brought their slave-masters back to power by their hands and are now pretty irrelevant.
Nice, again with the insults. You know what they say about people who can't make their point without insulting others, let alone an entire country and its people?
I'll tell you what, the only dumb thing us Egyptians did was elect Morsi in the first place. Wasted a revolution that spilled blood from thousands of people and created history only to allow an incompetent puppet to an organization that would've set back the country 150 years to be elected. That was the dumb thing we did.
Sadly, this news will make less rounds internationally than even Mugabee's topple over in Zimbawae
I guess you were wrong about that, ey? Turn on any news station in whatever state you're in and it's all over the news, never mind the news in the MENA region is talking about nothing but this. Not that that's something to be proud of anyway.
RIP .... some are saying this is a Sufi Mosque, and Sufi is same thing as Sunni or like 99% the same.
It's only that close when you exclude all the weird, so called mysitical things they do, which many of them actually don't practice but either way, Rawda Masjid is a big masjid open for everyone on a very busy street.
I am suspicious of these IS people nevertheless, I don't believe there is organized group in Sinai and rather cells , each acting on their own for whatever ulterior motives. Are these people just fanatics or thugs or what, I'm not taking anything seriously about them wanting to establish Islam. There are also reports that other militants are fighting IS affiliated ones in Sinai....
Which is why none of the insecticidal groups have taken any responsibility yet. They're either worried about severe retaliation (which they're gonna get anyway and it's already started) or this is something new and rogue. One thing for sure, it's not small, which is very problematic.
Reading some of the comments from palestinians on Ramallah news facebook page, they seem to really hate Sisi.
That's been happening for a while because of many reasons, the main one being the Rafah crossing but here's Sisi opening it much more often and allowing people to travel more so than Mubarak ever did. And not just that, but Sisi is responsible for the biggest improvement to a possible Palestinian state with his brokering of the reconciliation of Hamas and the PA, when everyone else was seeking to strictly alienate Hamas. But Palestinians and Egyptians are connected no matter what a few say.
I PRAY the Egyptian forces hit these kwarij devils with everything they have.
Oh, they will. They targeted and destroyed some of them hours after the terror attack.
Wow !
LOL at Islamic Army
250+ innocents gunned down and not a single shred of comment ! Sad state of muslims. Sad state indeed.
What does the Islamic Army have anything to do with this? And who said anything about Muslims either? These weren't Muslims. The Muslims were the unfortunate people who were attending the Friday prayers and were slaughtered by these feces. There's a huge distinction.
