Understanding the Enigma of the Egyptian Left - Hesham Sallam

‘Although the Egyptian street has always seemed to favor the emergence of left-wing power, this political current has been losing the battle to the Islamists and to the government for several decades now. This is due to a lack of autonomy … as well as a tendency to emphasize “identity” debates to the detriment of socio-economic problems.’

This assertion was based on evidence from a budget request presented to Congress on October 20th, where provisions for relocating individuals from Gaza were outlined by the United States government.

The preserved cake pigments are red (red ochre), blue (Egyptian blue), green (a mixture of Egyptian blue, yellow ochre, and orpiment) and two of black (carbon black, from charcoal).

An inscription on the wooden paint box tells us it belonged to Amenemope, who was Vizier during the reign of king Amenhotep II.

Twenty-eight premature babies were rescued from al-Shifa hospital in Gaza City and taken to #Egypt on Monday. The head of the World Health Organization (#WHO) said 31 “very sick” babies were moved from #alShifa hospital in a joint operation with the #UN and the #Palestinian Red Crescent Society, and 12 of them had been flown to Cairo. Three babies remain in #Gaza.

Today in Labor History November 12, 1956: In the midst of the Suez Crisis, over 100 Palestinian refugees were killed in Rafah by Israel Defense Forces after they invaded the Gaza Strip. Israel has neither denied nor acknowledged wrongdoing. Palestinians maintain that all resistance had ceased when the killings took place. Dozens of summary executions of Palestinian prisoners occurred, and up to 1,200 civilians were killed by the IDF in this four-month period of Israeli rule. The Suez Crisis began when Israel, followed by France and the UK, invaded Egypt and the Gaza Strip, in order to depose Gamal Nasser, and regain control over the Suez Canal, which Nasser had nationalized. Nasser was a leading figure in the secular, anti-imperialist, pan-Arabist movements of the day.

@luckytran then I assume you must REALLY hate #Lebanon and #Jordan and #Egypt for their Palestinian refugee camps and the poor, sometimes barbaric treatment they receive there?

I’m joking. Of course not. You focus exclusively on #Israel even while millions of #Palestinians are being oppressed by other #Arab nations.

AP story above doesn't mention which border crossing this was at, but following story mentions that Hamas had tried to take some of its wounded fighters through the #Rafah crossing to #Egypt

Not clear if they were the same crossing

Today in Labor History Nov 2, 1956: Israel invaded Egypt, followed by Britain and France, during the Suez Crisis. The goal was to regain control of the economically important Suez Canal by western powers, and to overthrow Egyptian leader Nassar, who had nationalized the canal. During the crisis, Israel occupied the Gaza Strip. The conflict resulted in 172 Israeli deaths and up to 4,000 Arab deaths, including 1,000 civilians.
