Hossam Badrawi and The New Republic, Wasim El-Sisi

Dr.. Hossam Badrawi and the New Republic
Waseem Al-Sisi
I received in the mail Dr. Hossam Badrawi’s book, with gentle words of dedication, a huge book of 471 pages. I looked at the book and fear with my eyes, as Nizar Qabbani put it in Abdel Halim Hafez’s masterpiece and Al-Muji, The Reader of the Cup, Why is that, Dr. Hossam!, What did I do to you?!, and I From 7 in the morning until 7 in the evening in surgeries and clinics!, Why don’t I read to you a lot in a few words like the Tunisian Bayram: Vicky, Egypt, something confusing me, wheat is planted in years, and pumpkins appear in seconds!, I’m done!.
I began to falter in reading the book! Oh God! Its pages turned into wings that flew me to the sky. I felt that this book was like a sea roaring in sequence, eloquence and strength, the courage of opinion, the depth of experience, the honesty of narration, the sweetness of utterance, the sweetness of style, the overwhelming love for Egypt A person who is not bought or sold, a person who is rich even from money itself, no hypocrisy, no hypocrisy, he talks and writes, and his motto: If you are afraid, do not write, and if you write, do not fear anyone!.
This is a book that every person should read, but every politician before any one. It tells us about trying to please everyone, so we get everyone’s anger. I remember Bernard Shaw saying: I do not know the secret of success, but rather the secret of failure, which is trying to please all people. He tells us about the civil state and that it is the state that rejects religion to achieve political goals, and that religious rule does not recognize citizenship except for those who owe their religion, because it is a dictatorial rule armed with religion.
They covered up things in their religion / and their religion is the religion of heretics
We deny the mind in believing their liar / and the mind is more worthy of honor and approval
Dr. tells us. Hossam on freedom, and how the masses should contribute to solving the problem and not be the problem. Mao Zedong used to say: Let the flowers bloom, let the ideas clash, so Voltaire wished to suffocate the last dictator with the intestines of the last religious fanatic, and he used to say: If sorcery knocks on the door of a nation, he first asks: Do they have intellectual freedom? He entered and the nation rose, and if they answered him: No!, he fled, and the nation declined.
Dr. tells us. Hossam on the American colonialism based on the British, he called them: “Vampire Frankenstein”, and he says: Those who suck their blood turn into vampires of their people, and he gives us examples: the jihadists in Afghanistan became the Taliban, supported the Brotherhood, the creation of the British Intelligence 1928, so Boko Haram came out of their cloak “Education is forbidden,” ISIS, Hamas, and the rest of the extremist organizations that destroy their countries in service of global Zionism.
Dr. Hossam admires and says: Salafism and Wahhabism are still operating in Egypt under the roof of a political reality that does not sufficiently deter them, and is ready, through funded religious organizations, to pounce on the government at any moment of inaction or failure. Hossam between the religious situation in Saudi Arabia and Egypt, as Wahhabism, religious extremism, fanaticism and extremism are in decline there, and in prosperity in Egypt, and he mentions Mahmoud Al-Saadani’s saying: The factory is closed, and the agent is running!
Dr. reminds us. Hossam, with the experience of Singapore in 1965, seven billion dollars, the national product, which reached 87 billion in the year 2000, while the per capita income increased from 435 to 30,000 dollars in the same period of time?!. He marvels at a country that is able to live on tourism only, in addition to its endless resources, and in which poverty is 30%, it is the poverty of the minds.
confirms d. Hossam on the completed justice that does not differentiate between one citizen and another. This reminds me of the book: Asian Drama – Gunnar Myrdal, and how the greatest common factor among soft states, that is, failed states, is: the absence of the rule of law, as was the throne speech of the prime minister in Egypt Ancient: I know that people’s respect for you does not happen except by your upholding justice. Beware of bringing a person close to you because he is close to me, or distancing a person from you because he is far from me. . Hossam Badrawi in his wonderful book: Dialogues with Youth for a New Republic.

About Dr. Hossam Badrawi

Dr. Hossam Badrawi
He is a politician, intellect, and prominent physician. He is the former head of the Gynecology Department, Faculty of Medicine Cairo University. He conducted his post graduate studies from 1979 till 1981 in the United States. He was elected as a member of the Egyptian Parliament and chairman of the Education and Scientific Research Committee in the Parliament from 2000 till 2005. As a politician, Dr. Hossam Badrawi was known for his independent stances. His integrity won the consensus of all people from various political trends. During the era of former president Hosni Mubarak he was called The Rationalist in the National Democratic Party NDP because his political calls and demands were consistent to a great extent with calls for political and democratic reform in Egypt. He was against extending the state of emergency and objected to the National Democratic Party's unilateral constitutional amendments during the January 25, 2011 revolution. He played a very important political role when he defended, from the very first beginning of the revolution, the demonstrators' right to call for their demands. He called on the government to listen and respond to their demands. Consequently and due to Dr. Badrawi's popularity, Mubarak appointed him as the NDP Secretary General thus replacing the members of the Bureau of the Commission. During that time, Dr. Badrawi expressed his political opinion to Mubarak that he had to step down. He had to resign from the party after 5 days of his appointment on February 10 when he declared his political disagreement with the political leadership in dealing with the demonstrators who called for handing the power to the Muslim Brotherhood. Therefore, from the very first moment his stance was clear by rejecting a religion-based state which he considered as aiming to limit the Egyptians down to one trend. He considered deposed president Mohamed Morsi's decision to bring back the People's Assembly as a reinforcement of the US-supported dictatorship. He was among the first to denounce the incursion of Morsi's authority over the judicial authority, condemning the Brotherhood militias' blockade of the Supreme Constitutional Court. Dr. Hossam supported the Tamarod movement in its beginning and he declared that toppling the Brotherhood was a must and a pressing risk that had to be taken few months prior to the June 30 revolution and confirmed that the army would support the legitimacy given by the people
