5 Fun Counter Revolution Propaganda

1-   Real patriotic rebels left Tahrir on the night of 25 January.

The good Egyptian youth that love their country gathered at the Tahrir square on the 25^th and left the same night. However, Thugs and foreign agents took over the square on the 28^th   onwards and put an act as if they are the real rebels.

2-    2-  Iranian, American, Hezbollah, Israeli Agents scammed innocent youth to destroy the economy and widen the sectarian rift.

State TV and propaganda machines spread the rumors of multi-agendas foreign agents alluring the pure Egyptian youth to destroy their country with [food] specifically, Kentucky combo meals and money, yet in mild-mannered version brain washing.

3-      3- [Rebels] in Tahrir are having orgies and drugs all night

The SCAF tagged along with the old regime media myth that young women and men spent the curfew nights at Tahrir having group sex and doing drugs.

The Army used this particular tale as a pre-text to sexually abuse female protesters.

4-     4- Israel & USA 6^th fleet are ready to attack Egypt if protesters did not leave the streets.

As ridiculous as this sound, this rumor was huge on the day of Mubarak departure and afterwards. Many people in Tahrir got a phone call from a friend or a family member to leave the square to save the country form military invasion.

5-    5-  Egypt is going to bankrupt in the next 6 months if the protests remain

State owned media and national press had a major big line for days that Egypt will announce bankruptcy in 6 months if protesters did not get out of the streets and got back to work. This was as well a counter revolution myth as at the same time IMF was pushing on Egypt long term loans which could have been impossible if the country had an economy equal to Somalia. 

Another brick in the succession wall

The Egyptians have fallen into the mice trap very easily and the home master now looking down laughing. Since the beginning of this month intellectuals and elitists been busy with the ultimate question whether it will be (The Father) or (The Son) or (The Ghost!!)**. At least 3 op-ed daily in local newspapers dedicated to solve this dilemma; each has constructed an argument to support how s/he induced the presidential forecast. The rest of the elitists have been more efficient and practical using their pens and voices to pitch about Egypt’s misfortune and theirs’ as well. Those intellectuals have wasted tones of papers and hours of broadcasting at the discourse about Mubarak jr. precision conspiracy theory till they became another propaganda tool for the idea itself. They –intentionally or not- repeated the name and stating the Almighty Gamal Mubarak is enviable backed up with their personal and political failures, humming the same depressing tune to the point public ears and minds been used to. All of the (independent) newspapers planting the seeds of the defeat.Egyptian now see the project as their fate and intellectuals have nothing more to say than ( we told you so)!!

Away from the intellectual scene there are much younger optimist youth that work more than they practice ( intellectual discourse), maybe they didn’t read 1/10th of the intellects have but they have more soul indeed.

Student been raised by a generation fed the fear of political Activism, torture practices inside the security establishment been like a pop stories. Those young women and men toured the streets/villages/cities trying to be – with their bare hands- the change  they like to see in the world not wasting their time solving the riddle of whom is where and which is when !

Now I’m a disbeliever in all of those false prophets calling themselves  intellectuals and a new convert to the youth faith which is mere believe in tomorrow.

 

** The Ghost: is the unknown 3rd presidential candid within the military establishment or the messiah!!

In fact; Size Really Matters!!

 

 

Guess who owns the biggest clock on the world?

- nah, not Switzerland!!Saudi King ordered-god knows who but defiantly not Saudis- to build the World’s largest clock!

The Question remains why Saudis/Arabs need the biggest clock for people widely known for having no sense of time ??!!

- Eh,maybe because it will look good on the guinness world record book!
