ISRAEL: They never liked us. I wonder why!


The Egyptian masses won't play ally to Israel
As long as the masses in Egypt and in the entire Arab world continue seeing
the images of tyranny and violence from the occupied territories,
Israel will not be able to be accepted, even it is acceptable to a few regimes.

Three or four days ago, all was quiet on the Egyptian front and the spark ignited in Tunisia has not yet touched the Egyptian people. As the Arab say, "He who is a neighbor to the blacksmith, he will will soon get burnt by one of its flying sparks". But in our case, Tunisia is not the blacksmith, but a goldsmith.

On Friday night everything changed. Overstepping the fear barrier, and motivated not only by the Tunisian spark, but by their own will that was forged in the heat of  the battle of suffering, poverty, suppression by the corrupt regime over three decades, the people of Egypt had their say. 

Not a plague of darkness in Egypt, death of Egyptian first born or devastating attack by locust, but the emination of the light of the Nile;  the end of a corrupt regime. Tyranny can go on for years. Downfall comes at the least expected time, and in the end it will happen. Tyranny wherever it is is destined to be shaken.

The deceptive old colonial game; hypocritical and sanctimonious division of countries by the U.S. and the West between the "axis of evil" on the one hand, and the "moderates" on the other, has collapsed. And in actual fact, if there is an axis of evil, then it includes all the non-democratic regimes, including the "moderates" and the "stable" and the "pro-Western.". Yesterday Tunis, today Egypt, tomorrow the USA. 

We all swim in the ocean of time and our own will. Time-will waves are mightier than any might ever existed. Sometimes when people have it up to the top of their noses, they instinctively unite and then becomes withing their grasp of the ability to swell and fling so hard any tyrant against the rocky shore.

The Israeli occupation, which certainly meets all the criteria of criminal tyranny and an evil regime, relies only on guns; a Spartan-like regime living only temporary glory. It is hated by all levels of the ruled people, even if they stands helpless, unorganized and unequipped, facing a big army. The best way is to end it well, with agreements based on justice and not on power, a moment before the masses have their say and succeed in banishing the darkness.

Alliances with unpopular regimes can be torn up overnight. As long as the masses in Egypt and in the entire Arab world continue seeing the images of tyranny and violence from the occupied territories, Israel will not be able to be accepted, even it is acceptable to a few regimes.

The Egyptian regime became an ally of the Israeli occupation. The joint siege of Gaza is irrefutable proof of that. The Egyptian people are not the Egyptian regime. They didn't like it. They never liked the peace agreement with Israel, in which Israel committed itself to "respect the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people" but never kept its word. Instead, the people of Egypt got the scenes of Operation Cast Lead. 

ABOVE And BELOW: Children killed and buried alive in the rubble.

It is not enough to have a handful of embassies in order to be accepted in the region. There also have to be embassies of goodwill, a just image, not an image of a child killer, and a state that is not an occupier. Israel has to make its way into the hearts of the Arab peoples, not the Arab regimes simply because they are pro-Israel. Arab peoples will never agree to the continued repression of their brothers, even if their intelligence ministers will continue to cooperate with Israel. 

If there's one thing shared by all factions of the Egyptian opposition, it is their seething hatred of Israel. And I cannot blame them for it in the presence of continuation of  Israeli aggression. Now the representatives of the oppressed will rise to power, and Israel will find itself in a very difficult situation.

A real alliance with Egypt and its sister-states can only be based on the end of the occupation, as desired by the Egyptian people.

The masses of the Egyptian people on all levels took their fate in their hands. There is something impressive and cheering in that. No power, not even that of Mubarak, can overcome the mighty waves of the will of the people..
