When Israel Celebrates The Revolution

Al-Dostor Newspaper today has published in its first pages two photos that will open a huge debate in the coming week, it published the two photos from the official 23rd of July revolution celebration of the Egyptian Embassy in Tel Aviv.
Here are the photos :

Israel celebrates the revolution 23rd July
It is normal thing that embassies celebrate their countries’ national days and it is normal thing that embassies invite the officials of the countries where they are to attend those celebrations. But it is not a normal or usual thing to find a President of country and his prime minister both attending the celebration of a national day of another country !! I do not need to say that this high representation of Israel in the Egyptian Embassy’s celebration is considered the peak for sure the Egyptian – Israeli relations , the relations would not get higher officially than this. On the public level , well Israeli officials know that it is a hopeless case and this is why they pray day and night to God to give Mubarak more health.
I know very well that in previous years the Israeli prime ministers or foreign ministers or even presidents used to attend the celebration , our previous ambassadors used to drink Champagne unlike this ambassador but the photos were not leaked for fear the public anger and criticism yet now with the information technology and communication revolution and that fact that the Israeli officials themselves want to isolate and weaken Egypt more and more Egyptians have a direct access to these photos now.
Up till now all the people I met through the day who have seen the two photos in Al-Dostor are extremely angry and furious , you hear the following comments:
‘The criminals Perez and Netanyahu are cutting down our the Egyptian flag cake !! Why did not the embassy choose another design’
‘This is an insult to our martyrs who were killed in wars’
Even those who do not like the Revolution or rather coup from their point of view from neo-royalists and others are offended with these two photos.
It is an irony because after all the officers of the 23rd of July began to think about the coup right after the Palestine war 1948 and the defeat of the Arab armies in front of the Zionist gangs. It is an irony because Israel was considered by those officers who did the revolution as the enemy.It is an irony because the hero of the movement Nasser vowed to erase Israel from the map !!
It is an irony that the Israeli officials are celebrating the revolution when the founding fathers of modern Israel had tried so much to sabotage the movement in its early beginning by disturbing its relations with Washington in what is known in history as Lavon affair.
You know what is more ironic when I see the faces in these photos, I see Shimon Perez who drew the plan of Sinai on a cigarettes box and I remember free officer Youssef Sadek who drew the plan of coup on a cigarettes box too ; Sadek was from the first free officer to be eliminated by Nasser for fear his power , I bet that he did not imagine the day would come and the Israeli officials celebrate what he planned !!
Perez and Netanyahu were not celebrating the revolution but celebrating Mubarak , there is a huge different between them regardless of the fact that Mubarak came to rule Egypt in the end of the day because of the revolution.
Insh Allah hopefully this will be the last time those two war criminals will celebrate our national day !!
The Israeli officials are harming Mubarak by provoking his people ,I do not know if they are doing this deliberately or not.

  3. heh. we're war criminals by default, aren't we?

    if you'd still rather that we sliced each other instead of cakes, there's nothing we can do about it. at least one of your ex-presidents has been brave and smart enough to end this senseless bloodshed, but it appears many of you yearn for more. go ahead, put the entire region in flames, death and misery. what a great vision and prospect! we're all waiting to see your middle east.

    but you're right, it is revulting - nasser was a jew-hater (note, i do not say zionist, see AQ kasim compared below) and confisticated significant amount of jewish property and took venegence at local egyptian jews for his failed campaigns to wipe israel off the map. the syrian ba'ath regime was not far behind.
    abdul-qarim kassim (of the iraqi officer coup) was anti-zionist but not anti-jewish, jews were protected under his reign, but that was short lived enough to have no effect, being replaced by the murderous aref brothers.

    read http://www.jimena.org/Mourad.htm for the story of a (non-zionist) ex-egyptian jew. and get your history straightened up a bit.

  4. Let me guess, they were drinking a toast to the lives of Egyptian soldiers that were lost due to Zionist war crimes! This is a disgrace to all true Egyptians.

    It is funny how all the anonymous pseudo Arabs show up at your blog whenever there is a post like this. You just know it when they start to Copy n' Paste their Hasbara drivel away.

  5. what's the matter banoota, can't face the text so you aim for the messenger?

    A) pseudo arab is x100 better than arab today, owing to the state of affairs in the arab world. I didn't want to say it myself, but since you said it, i'll happily chug along with your compliment.

    B) this content is 100% original. it further links to a non-zionist NGO causing a lot of headache to the 'zionist entity'. it does a lot to dispel the zionist myth that arab jews were zionists.

    C) if you wanna play reductio-ad-hasbaratum... well, you're a hasbara agent yourself! neener neener!
