Arab Anger

Differs from
“March 14
th” anger

Starting with Tunis’s anger day, which is being repeated day in day out, other Arab anger days are breaking out, and after the fall of its http://news.google.com.lb/news/tbn/WoHaOmGpwfsJ first “victim”, dictator Zein Al-Abidin Ben Ali, and his family headed by the wife of the deposed president/dictator, his sons and daughter, sons in law, his gang of relatives, friends and those who benefited from his government and private administrations, companies and other operations and establishments, which were financed
from the people’s looted fortunes… We believe hadn’t these billions of Dollars been pillaged by Arab dictators and their gangs that Tunisian young man, Muhammad Bou Azizi, to be followed by a number of Arab young men, those agonized and subdued young men, would not have torched themselves and fallen victims to those who appointed themselves as rulers of the Arab people. Those subdued young men fell while running fast to catch up with their bread, out of reach, that was running faster  than them, because of the strong support to their legs!, and kidnapped in front of them by those sitting crossed legged on their comfortable thrones, as if nourishment was registered in a real estate department as their private property, as an inherited right, as some believe, eternally. But the impossible here in today's world is definitely possible as long as the people have the will to fight for their rights. The moment the Arab people to the west of Tunis and its east saw what took place in that relatively small Arab country, whose people are supposed to be peaceful - but remember their great poet , Abu A-Qassen Ashabi who said:

                                                                                If the people seek life     fate shall respond


The Arab people of Algeria are responding too, Algeria the land of Abdul Al-Qader Al-Jazaeri. who resisted the French colonialism that wanted to annex Algeria to what it called the French motherland, but Algeria’s people liberated their land with the blood of a million martyrs, and from there to Egypt, Nasser’s land, whose millions rose so as depose the unblessed Mubarak dictator, to follow his colleague Ben Ali, after shipping his two sons Gamal and Ala’a and their wives and children to London with one hundred suit cases,. Mubarak also believes that he too had also registered Egypt plus its people in his name, and if he expected to bequeath it to his wife, children Gamal, Alla’a and the rest of his family.

the wretched despot 

 

 

But millions of Egyptians Arabs flooded Egyptian cities and towns’ streets and vast squares not fearing Mubarak’s police and special forces or their clubs, guns and weeping gas canisters. Millions waged a war of attrition against Mubarak and his gangs all shouting in his face “enough” ((?????, enough for thirty years of oppression, injustice, poverty, not to forget subjection to the United States and its dearest ally, the Zionist entity, who for its security and safety and by order of the U.S. Mubarak built a steel wall so as to strengthen and tighten the Zionist enemy’s siege on the tiny Gaza slip, who’s 1.6 million people are already being chocked and strangled by the Zionist enemy. Gaza is the most densely populated  piece of land in the world, while to the Zionist entity you sell Egypt’s natural gas cheaper than international prices. You sell this gas to those who spy on you, and interfered in internal Sudanese affairs to execute its partition; so as Egypt would lose it strategic depth and be able to subdue it as was the case under Mubarak’s regime. And if, as the Zionist entity expected, Egyptian Arabs would revolt against their dictator, and would liberate themselves from ties imposed on them with their enemy, and return to their  right line of confrontation with them, their real and eternal enemy, the Zionist enemy. Our Egyptian Arab peoples  rebellion against their dictator that has already started, and shall certainly succeed, and Mubarak shall follow his colleague, Ben Ali, in exile. If he succeeds to escape before falling in the hands of the revollutionary people, he must account for the injustice, tyranny and oppression he imposed on the good Arab people of Egypt, whom he did not try to protect from hunger, disease, illiteracy or the Zionist enemy’s conspiracies and intrigues, this enemy you are allying now, befriending, to make peace .

As soon as Arab Intifadas broke out in the Arab homeland, Zionist political and military leaders started lamenting the expulsion of their “Arab” dictator friends and dictatorships, which they had always gibed their Arab enemies for, though Arab dictatorships served Zionist interests, and compared it with what they call Zionist “democracy”, the democracy of ethnic discrimination and cleansing, massacres. uprooting, land and other Arab property theft, the democracy of continuous wars… Zionist interest had always been supporting Arab dictators such as Mubarak, Bin Ali, Jordanian kings, the Yemeni dictator Ali Abdullah Saleh and the rest of their colleagues east and west, to prevent the Arab people throughout the Arab homeland from revolting or to up rise against those self appointed rulers, as is the case now; so as to be able to confront the Zionist enemy and defeat it. This is what Arab resistance did in Lebanon and Palestine whom Mubarak accused of terrorism. Netanyahu appealed to the American administration to extend help to Mubarak for fear of their main Arab ally and the Camp David agreement, and thus return to isolation within the Arab homeland.

 

As for Trans Jordan, before we go into history, today’s breaking news is that the Hashemite king hearing what is going around in the Arab homeland with Arab dictators, he tried abort the peoples intifadah by sacking his self appointed cabinet, and formed a new one headed by a new old prime minister instead of leaving the matter to the parliament to execute the democratic process. The opposition did not accept the king’s trick. and insisted on a real democratic regime, and said people should insist on breaking relation with the Zionist enemy and not only close its embassy.

 

Trans Jordan was created by British colonialism and granted to the Hashemite family that it imported from Hejaz, and appointed Abdullah I first as an Emir then promoted him into king to compensate the family’s regime for protecting the Zionist enemy, which says Trans Jordan is theirs as is the land west of Jordan, Palestine is ours too. Our people in Jordan since weeks and months had been demonstrating against those who were appointed by the British  Demonstrations aim ousting those who impoverished and starved the people in the so-called kingdom, while normalizing with the Zionist entity, as well as closing down the enemy’s embassy in Amman as a starting point for expelling the enemy from our land, Palestine,  and other occupied Arab lands. The U.S. bought Jordan’s peace with the Zionist enemy with “thirty silver pieces”, while  the great ally of the Zionist entity promising the Hashemite Kingdom  to cover its national debt amounting, at the time, to eight billion US Dollars, but after signing the peace treaty it got a mere six hundred thousand dollars, what a pity, cheaper, as we say in Arabic, than radishes at old time prices. It is high time for a change of a  head of a state from who, in 1973 flew to Tel Aviv, to caution the enemy that some Arab states are planning to launch a campaign for liberating their occupied lands!!!

 

We wonder whose door of other Arab rulers shall popular Arab anger bang, those rulers who are supposed to be the savants and not the masters of their citizens, whose pains and hardships they constantly increase, but what we know that the anger of the old majority in Lebanon came in the opposite direction of the other Arab anger, that is driving against traffic. Sectarians in Lebanon, and those who oppose democratic change in power of rule, even after ruling continuously for almost two decades, after buying their seats with millions if not billions of dollars, as if Lebanon is a private property of theirs, and now have the right to express their anger if they democratically lose it ! They expressed their anger in a most undemocratic manner, they sent their men to highways, cities and towns streets and squares where they blocked roads with burned tires and trash containers, threw stones on soldiers their own sons and brothers, attacked Lebanese and other Arab  journalists and burned direct TV transmission cars especially that of Al-Jazirah not because it didn’t support their political line of propaganda, but because it relayed what was actually taking place on the ground and contradicts the democratic truth on the ground. As for those people, isn’t "rule" a private property that they bought with their own money, which should be protected even at the cost of burning Lebanon and who is in it.!!?

 

But what is worse is what the reactionary former majority used as an excuse to attack change, that should have taken place a long time ago, is their enmity to national resistance, the resistance that liberated occupied Lebanese territories by the Zionist enemy. As anybody who wants change and liberty from American, Zionist and their allies control , those who want Lebanon to be ruled by Iran and “wilayat al-fakih” (the guardianship of the jurist), Iran whose fault is arming and supporting Arab resistance forces against the Zionist entity and Western colonialism. If this is the case Iran is welcom with anybody who does the same. Those who attack Arab resistance never ceased visiting Hosni Mubarak and his colleagues the moderate Arab rulers (It seems that they shall be released from  this duty very soon by the popular intifadahs presently taking place around the Arab homeland.)

 

Now the big jokes are the news that we read in what is known as the “national newspapers” (government run newspapers, of Egypt), especially one of the oldest and most famous of them “Al-Ahram”, as these papers deal with the news with disparagement, they deal thus with the great news,  the actual Egyptian “day of anger”, instead they spoke about what the Lebanese “Al-Mustakbal party” of the former political parliamentary majority in Lebanon, claimed to be the “day of anger”, because the legal democratic procedure brought to rule a new majority. Probably what expressed best this matter is that headline that crowned the first page of "Al-Ahram” is not the popular anger of the Egyptian Arab street against the Egyptian dictator, Hosni Mubarak, and his gang, which Al-Ahram just ignored. But also what is most interesting is that many of Al-Ahram journalists joined the million people demonstration in Al-Tahrir (Liberation) square in Cairo to demand for the expulsion of Mubarak from his over thirty years old presidential unelected post. In spite of the millions of people curses he is still holding fast to his presidential throne, but at least his son shall never inherit it.

At the time when the intifadah in the Egyptian street is at its top heat, and when the major news of the Arab and international media in all its forms, the headline of Al-Ahram read: “Wide protests and chaos in Lebanon”, noting that leaders of the former political parliamentary majority in Lebanon where among the most important allies of Mubarak’s regime along with the United states, other Western countries and moderate Arab regimes, without mentioning others! This former Lebanese political majority are those who constantly attack Arab resistance against the Zionist enemy, noting that these resistance forces are the only powers that could defeat the Zionist entity.

 

Last, for the moment, and strangest of all is that Abu Mazen’s (Mahmoud Abbass) call for support to Mubarak, The same dictator, Mubarak, who was building by order of his American and Zionist allies, the underground steel wall on the border of the Gaza Strip to further strangle its 1.6 million Palestinians with hunger and oppression, as that is what the Zionist entity could not fully do. On the Palestinian Authority TV news, it was noted that Mahmoud Abbass called Mubarak and stated his support for stability of Egypt!  Other news outlets stated that he fully supports the Mubarak regime.  On the other hand the Hamas resistance movement declared that they support the Egyptian people.  Sadly, while we believe all rational human beings know which horse to bet on in this struggle between people and a western-supported dictator, those dictators who accomplished nothing except stealing the fortunes of the peoples they ruled for long years. Instead of working for the interest of the vast majority of their people they  enriched their families,  and as Mubarak did Mahmoud Abbas did too, but even worse, which is worse - as Palestine is under a murderous Zionist occupation

.

It ought to be noted that Mubarak sent away his sons, whom he was preparing to inherit his throne after long years, with their families who sucked billions of dollars and Euros from the mostly impoverished over eighty million Egyptian people.
