I am sick and tired of seeing the bs that you post it's all over ES, to me you are one of the most self-absorbed persons on ES, but, I don't go around ES saying how much your posts and your person annoys me. Also I see that other peoples' links do not 'annoy' you - just mine - well guess what because you are such a shitty character I am going to post links much more often than I do, only because you get on my nerves.

No, but now instead of sitting around blaming the government for this and that, you have the opportunity to get off your butt and make your own better future.
Unless you're the type who likes to sit around and complain, talking about when it was so much better under baba Mubarak when you could just blame the government and not take any responsibility for bettering your country.

I guess now that we can freely be rude to each other, for the record, your posts annoy me and you get on my nerves.

another of your non copy pastes in perfect English when you claim you copy paste as your English is not good, yet every single time you don't copy paste your English is perfect yet it's always to be shitty to someone. Posts: 15090 | From: http://www.egyptalk.com/forum/ | Registered: Jul 2004

That is the chant of the non-violent Egyptian resistance, as its members march on the Mubarak presidential palace, guarded by scared-looking young soldiers behind razor wire. The US media and State keep calling for the army to take over to prevent “chaos,” i.e., freedom. Yet what a model for all the world’s oppressed peoples these resisters are. They are showing us, once again, that non-violence can overcome the State and its armies and secret police, whereas returning violence for violence ends in massacre. Threats, torture, murder, beating, caging, these are the tools of the State. We, the opponents of the State, cannot possibly beat it at its own game, nor should we try. But with non-violence, we have a chance. Conscripted soldiers, break your weapons and go home to your families. Those you love need your hands and your brains, not your bullets.

Congratulations, Egyptians, you taught the world an incredible lesson -- peaceful protest can, indeed, change the world.
Blessings for moving forward - may the earnestness, pride and grace of the past few weeks continue and carry you forward.

I have to say what a cowardly leap, OR this isn't REAL.
WHY would he say last night he's not going then leave the country and leave Suleiman to tell everyone, has he REALLY stepped down or are they just saying that?
Was his tv and laptop in Sharm and he's only just seen what's really been happening?
Has Suleiman done him in and said he left?
Personally I think he left the country a while back.

I have friends who theorise that Mubarak stepped down today as it is a memorable date!!!
I did question why last night he stated he would be staying and then stepped down the next day...
I can confirm that 2 choppers left Almazaa this morning, (as I posted few pgs back) as a friend of mine said they skimmed his roof! (We assumed Suzanne was going to the hairdressers as they didn't arrive in Tahrir).

Hope the Swiss gov. will freeze the loot those scumbags have smuggled out, we need to reclaim that dough ASAP.

Just said on AJE Swiss are freezing the accounts.
Yes, it won't be easy - I figure you will go through something like what the UK went through in the Thatcher Years, transforming the place painfully and probably in hindsight necessarily.
(Totally NOT a Thatcher fan btw but that's another story).

yes they have been BUT you have to bear in mind they believed all the lies and just wanted things back to normal and tourists coming back. Most have no idea what a historic moment this is and are convinced that chaos will start now he's gone, just like he said. Very much like nevermind and her hubby mentality. Odd few were with it and vast majority agreed they wanted him gone but were concerned about their living today rather than their futures.
Think I will go out, see what I can find on the streets.

What a COWARD you are!! You pick up on me only because you know I am disliked in this forum because of my views about Islam. Your "friends" often post long boring articles - but no rude comments there. I go out of my way to make it SHORT so that people like YOU can easily SKIP them, and you pick up on me out of all posters..COWARD is all I can say.

Yes, Ayisha. The makwa carefully explained to me a few days ago that the people hated the government but HM was a very good man. He's from a village up in the Delta guess it's similar.
(He can't read btw (Arabic) I tested him out a couple of times with a pizza menu and a bottle of furniture oil.)

Actually my feelings towards people lacking their own opinions has been quite generic for three years but you seem to think in an egotistical manner that I am referring to you.
I don't care if you are liked or not ( I really don't spend all day here scouring everyone's words!!!) but if you feel so disliked by others then perhaps you should Google 'how to make friends and influence people' as opposed to throwing your toys out the pram like a child and hissy fitting at me.
Coward... yeah right! Said the one whining about being picked on! SASH... cue the rolly eyes!

My ex after two weeks tentatively trying to curb my enthusiasm is happy Hosni is stepping down.
His main concern was that no more bloodshed and no more torturing of protesters. Now he can relax and enjoy the peace.

If you don't like what I post simply ignore me! Why bother click on my thread solely to make a snide remark? Does it make you feel 'witty' to put other people down? Apparently.
"I don't care if you are liked or not ( I really don't spend all day here scouring everyone's words!!!) but if you feel so disliked by others then perhaps you should Google 'how to make friends"
I am not interested in making "virtual" friends. I consider every polite poster in this forum a friend.
I have learned that it doesn't matter how politely you express yourself, some people just can't tolerate criticism of their religion. It's like you can't win. Btw, most of my posts criticize Militant and Political Islam. But anyway, it's not what Muslims believe that is bothering me, it is the intolerance of some posters here that I find disturbing, their personal attacks and bigotry. It is YOUR rudeness that now drives me to post more. I give you a promise, I'll do my best to increase my copy and paste inshallah.
One more thing. This forum is not only for "chit-chating" and gossiping. You find my posts "boring", but this forum is also for voicing opinions and exchanging views in a civilized manner, tell me, what makes you think that everyone here is interested in your new ipod or other silly details of your life? What is boring to you may be interesting to someone else. Surely no one is forcing you to click on my links and read them?
