Down with the Religious Fascism

Fascism is a form of radical authoritarian nationalism that came to prominence in early 20th century Europe. Fascists seek to unify their nation through a totalitarian state that promotes the mass mobilization of the nation community, relying on a vanguard party to initiate a revolution to organize the nation on fascist principles. Hostile to liberal democracy,socialism,and communism, fascist movements share certain leader, and an emphasis on ultra nationalism and militarism. Fascism views political violence, war, and imperialism as means to achieve national rejuvenation and assert that stronger nations have the right to obtain land and resources by displacing weaker nations .

In my very humble opinion this is exactly what's happening in Egypt,if not in all countries of what so called the Arab Spring. It all started when BouAzizi committed suicide in Tunisia,people were full of rage that no one whom so ever could have stopped it,they occupied the streets desperately hoping that someone might -actually- notice them. Just to show that they are still alive,to warn the authorities of what might happen if they decided to change.
Same happened here in Egypt,the Egyptian youth were moved & shocked by the mysterious death of Khaled Saaed,they protested,objected and at some point demanded escalated measures,but all in vain.
The overthrow of the Tunisian regime has spread like an epidemic in the Middle East. Youths -including myself- were so hopeful that a better tomorrow might come as a result of what we were doing -which was protesting,tweeting and sharing videos about other countries deciding our fate-. We had no idea what tomorrow would bring to a 7000 year old country..

In 18 days the Egyptian regime was uprooted from its roots & the whole world watched the Egyptians in awe. Skipping the part of the military council,here we are standing at a fateful decision,it's either you choose Shafiq who represents the previous regime's agenda,or Morsi who represents the Islamic/Revolutionary agenda.
As expected -or unexpected makes no difference- Morsi won,and it was the worst year Egypt has ever witnessed.

How is it even possible that these people are living among us?. We didn't even see one normal model that you can successfully discuss a topic with without discrimination or hate speech directing right at you. Pedophiles,rapers defenders,racists,hypocrites,sex maniacs,gynophobia. These were the elite representing the ruling regime.
I wont pretend that I'm an angel but I will never say something like "God created the strongest muscle in a woman's body in her thighs so she can resist her raper and refuse to spread her legs" Sheikh Mahmoud Shaaban. And I wont -almost- get a heart attack when I see the president on a program with a female interviewer.
I will never say that hanging out in a cafe with my colleagues is a western habit that contravenes Islam.
These people had only one perspective of seeing things: A sexual perspective.

You want to negotiate with Islamists? You have to accept the fact that you are a lesser person just because you're not one of them. A liberal muslim is not a muslim, Christians: To hell with these,the less the better. Shiites: Kill these. Atheists: Kill these.

When the Muslim Brotherhood's party became the ruling party,the frenzy began. Suddenly nothing and no one mattered other than their power and authority. They did everything to stay in power starting with taking all the credit for January 25th revolution, disengaging sit-ins by force,interfering the judiciary,freedom of speech violations,and a lot more.
Living in denial,Morsi refused to admit that millions of Egyptians signed Tamarod's form to deprive him of his post as the Egyptian elected president,he continued to amaze us by his exquisite speeches. Sometimes lobbying,most of the times threatening. Using the MB members and his supporters,they promised death fate to anyone participating in June 30th protests.
The 2nd revolution -yes revolution not a coup- succeeded due to the Egyptian army's support. For weeks after that we watched their sit-ins both in Nahda and Rabaa threatening the Egyptians in all kinds of ways.
"We'll burn Egypt", "All the terrorism in Sinai will stop the instant Morsi returns to his post as the Egyptian elected president". They were pleading for foreign intervention. All kinds of weapons were found in Rabaa sit-in. They murdered police officers,soldiers,if there was a demonstration of them passing somewhere and they see people watching from their balconies,they shoot randomly at them and kill them. They burned tens of churches,attacked tens of police stations,burned them,killed the officers and stole the weapons.

This is not what the youths hoped to be the outcome of January 25th. And that's why June 30th revolution succeeded. If the world can't see the MB as a religious fascism,then Ben Ladin is a sweetheart not a terrorist.
Egyptians are not looking for America's support because they've been on the MB's side since January 25th and maybe even that was the main reason they supported Jan25th movement. And of course Egyptians are not looking for Turkey's support -or Erdogan to be specific- because he himself adopts an Islamic agenda. Egyptians just want their country back. Ohh and they want everyone to mind their own business and to keep their noses out of the internal issues.

  1. with all due respect to the copy-pasted definition of fascism.. it lacks reason and rationality.. who said communists would lay under the totalitarian reign of one person... if we, anyway, do not believe in the centralization of the state nor the power... we do not believe in the state's existence anyway.

    The chauvinist point of view discussed above is shallow as it is mostly incited nor documented. It is nonnegotiable that I am anti-islamists as it is well know, and shown on my blog.. however, no islamist has been proven or pledged guilty as a pedophile for instance.

    You have to understand that the problems we are facing in Egypt is due to the corruption of the capitalist system worldwide. The cashflow of all of the regimes is crrupt.. so you cannot exclude your country and expect things to get fixed simply by removing a president or two... you should start pushing forward for a global revolution...

    proving my point, why do you think certain countries like The United States, for instance, stood against democratic movements in the middle east at their beginning and then started supporting later on?

    Don't you think they were trying to protect their cash-flows? playing it "business-as-usual" for a while?

    think it over.
