Egg on all their faces!
I am saying that only to avoid having to say, during this blessed month of Ramadan, anything stronger like “A Plague on All Their Houses!”
It is a take on Shakespeare: Macbeth.
So, “Egg on All Their Faces,” I say, rather than “A Plague on All Their Houses!”
And “they” are all those, inside and outside Egypt, Muslim as well as non-Muslim, who in any form or fashion played a role in the criminal coup d’état against the freely and openly elected democratic legitimate and lawful government of Egypt headed by President Dr. Morsi.
Similarly, “they” also includes all those, inside and outside Egypt, Muslim as well as non-Muslim, who in any form or fashion cheered for or supported or justified or rationalized or financed the criminal coup d’état against the freely and openly elected democratic legitimate and lawful government of Egypt headed by Dr. Morsi.
Just as “they” also includes all those, inside and outside Egypt, Muslim as well as non-Muslim, who remained silent and failed to speak up against this blatant criminal assault on the freely and openly elected democratic legitimate and lawful government of Egypt headed by Dr. Morsi.
And against the cause of Freedom and Democracy and Human Rights everywhere.
Just as “they” also includes all those, inside and outside Egypt, Muslim as well as non-Muslim, who now cover up or minimize or euphemise the truth about the barbaric and bloody repression and daily massacres that the Criminal Egyptian Military Junta is carrying out right now in Egypt against peaceful and unarmed Egyptian masses in their millions, and continue to lie through their teeth about it, saying that:
Somehow the millions upon millions upon millions of unarmed peaceful Egyptian People, including entire families, demonstrating on the streets of Egypt against the bloody and barbaric criminal coup d’état of Sisi’s Military Junta are somehow to blame for the “violence” on Egyptian streets – violence that invariably results in deaths and injuries in their own ranks;
And that the hundreds of deaths and thousands of injuries among the peaceful unarmed demonstrators, including women and children, are the result of “clashes,” rather than the military, the police and their hired goons and thugs attacking the peaceful demonstrators with all kinds of lethal weapons including live bullets.
They all have egg on their faces.
And I repeat and say: Egg on All Their Faces!
Whether or not you want to say “A Plague on All Their Houses!” that is your business.
I generally avoid saying things like that – to anyone.
But I do have a friendly piece of advice for all: You better read this piece as you look at yourself in the mirror in the bathroom.
And, also, as you gaze into the innocent eyes of your own children, if you have any.
And if any of the Tin-pot Tyrant Oil-Keepers of the Persian Gulf Sheikdoms and Kingdoms, or any of the folks the world knows as the governments of EU and UK and US, as well as the UN and the rest, see any resemblance to themselves in what I am saying here, it may be purely coincidental.
Still, while you are at it, don’t forget to ask all these wonderful people where they all were, and what precisely they were doing, the night the Egyptian Military Junta, headed by Abdal Fattah Sisi, launched its criminal coup d’état against the freely and openly elected legitimate and lawful democratic government of Egypt headed by Dr. Morsi; kidnapped the President and locked him up, if not actually tortured and killed him; abolished the Parliament; and suspended Egypt’s first National Constitution that the Egyptian People ratified with a vote of nearly 65 percent.
Ask them where they were and what they were doing.
In the meantime, the criminal Egyptian Military Junta of Abdal Fattah Sisi has declared an open season on the Egyptian People – indiscriminately killing unarmed, peaceful men, women and children, using military and police personnel in civilian clothes, and also using hired thugs and convicts released from jail.
So, to them all I say: Egg on All Your Faces!
You want to say, following Shakespeare: A Plague on All Your Houses, be my guest.
