Sissi lives up to his name.

The funniest thing about him by the way is that unlike Nasser or even Sadat, Sissi never saw any combat.

He was a pencil pusher in the army.

Egypt today is a lion led by a sheep. If it so wished, it could crush Israel in a protracted war. But it instead chooses the path of collaboration.

The corrupt military establishment in Egypt must be pulled out, roots and all. These so-called generals should be stripped naked, paraded through the streets, and hanged upside down from lampposts to be jeered, mocked and stoned by their people. Men like Sissi should have their eyes plucked out for their lack of vision, their tongues cut out for their lies, their balls snipped off for their lack of courage, and a stake driven through their hearts for their lack of humanity.

What sin did we do to be beset by such useless leaders?

I am reminded of the story of Radwan, the Seljuq Atabeg of Aleppo, who in his cowardice before the Crusaders, mounted a great golden cross on the main Mosque of Aleppo.

I pray to God, send us leaders worthy of our loyalty. Give us a champion that we may follow him to War against the Zionists.

Thanks Ahnaf for this revealing analysis.

I'm wondering if I could crosspost this to a Substack I'm involved with: Nevermore Media.

We are an anarchist collective. Our general stance is that we are anti-war. But we are sympathetic with the plight of the Palestinians. I think this piece would give our readers a clearer idea of what is going on in Gaza and the Middle East.

I've already put it to the editorial team and we're still discussing it. If all goes well, I'd like to publish it today with a brief introduction, since it contains time-sensitive info.

I see you are a Bengali Muslim. If there's anything more you want to tell me about yourself, please do so.
