Ghazi’s Arrest Will Not Release Shalit

This message is from a Palestinian student called Mohamed Ghazi who was arrested in Egypt by the orders of the state security and is currently in jail , he sent to the Nadeem center.

That Palestinian student was studying in Yemen and was in his way to Gaza when he was arrested in 2009. He was accused of working with Hamas and receiving training in Syria, Iran and Yemen !!

For three weeks he had been interrogated abut Hamas and Galid Shalit who has turned today 24 years old by the way.

Ghazi has received court rulings with his immediate release and yet he is still in jail. Shalit will not return by arresting and torturing Palestinians like Ghazi.

I just wonder how many Ghazis are in our jails against the law ??

    How many Ghazis are in Egyptian jails without trial?

    Maybe as many as the Sudanese civil society activists from Halayeb who are in Egyptian jails for periods spanning 7 years, two of whom died under alleged torture:
    the former head of the popular council in Halayeb Muhammad Othman Abaan and,
    the former head of the municipal council Tahir Hasaai.

    But being Sudanese they might as well be expendable and don't warrant mention in your blog.

    You haven't read anything about them?!

    Google 'Halayeb' 'sujoon' - in Arabic - and see what you come up with!

    Maybe you have not heard or read anyone speaking about them even from human rights activists including your friends because like you they believe in Egypt's 'manifest destiny' and feel the need to assert their views on Egyptian dominion over Halayeb (which is under illegal military occupation - by Egypt) when dealing with a pure human rights issue.

    Maybe that's why the massacre of Sudanese refugees at Mustafa Mahmoud Square has been swept under the rug in Egypt - whilst its wounds are still sore in Juba.

    Maybe there's more at stake where Sudan is concerned - the official line being 'let's not deviate from our airy-fairy notion of being one people as Sudan is the means to our food security'.

    Who knows?

  4. I do not think that you have been around the Egyptian blogosphere to know how we have condomned this act from the Egyptian regime's did , you did not check our press including the dostor which was vocal and stood against the official media defending the rights of these refugees.
    Look again we did not hear anything about it , if you have links please share with us.

  5. This is what the head of the Eastern Front, a political group that took up arms against Bashir's government in the past before signing a peace agreement in Eritrea said at a political rally:

    The situation in Halayeb is very critical. The people who are inside the Halayeb triangle are under immense pressure by the Egyptian forces who have stripped them of their Sudanese identification papers and closed off the border and refuse to let him visit their kin in the rest of Sudan.
    Our brothers in the Egyptian government should know that their persistence in occupying Halayeb will have a profound, exponential impact on relations.
    I would like to remind the Egyptians that we fought with them in their war against Israel, so how is it that their troops come and occupy our land?!
    Halayeb is Beja and Sudanese and has no connection to Egypt either politically or socially.

    الوضع الحالي في حلايب متأزم للغاية، وأن الأهالي داخل المثلث يتعرضون لضغوط رهيبة من قبل القوات المصرية التي جرّدتهم من هوياتهم السودانية، وأغلقت الحدود ومنعتهم من عبورها لمقابلة أهاليهم داخل السودان، مضيفاً "نحن نحترم خصوصية العلاقة بين مصر والسودان، ولكن على الأخوة في الحكومة المصرية أن يعلموا بأن الإصرار على إحتلال حلايب والتمسك بها سيؤثر على مجمل العلاقة بين البلدين بشكل أكبر". ويذكّر موسى المصريين بأننا "ناضلنا وقاتلنا معهم في حربهم ضد العدو الإسرائيلي، فكيف تأتي قواتهم بعد ذلك لتحتل أرضنا؟"، مؤكداً أن حلايب "منطقة سودانية بجاوية لا علاقة لها إطلاقاً بمصر لا سياسياً ولا اجتماعياً"..

  6. I was in Cairo shortly after the massacre and a significant response condemning the brutalisation of the innocent refugees did emanate from some bloggers, human rights groups, church groups and even Ali Juma'a.

    However Adil Imam and some of the residents of Muhandiseen said they had it coming and they were dangerous - they were describes as being diseased beasts, alcoholics, and savages who relieved themselves and copulated in public.

    An official inquiry was promised but it never materialised.

    The massacre is remembered annually in Juba.
