Proven Criminality Of Mubarak Terror Regime

“Thousands of WikiLeaks
released documents,
diplomatic cables from
2009 and 2010 from
the US embassy in Cairo.
Prove the Barak Obama
administration knew
a dictator Hosni Mubarak
regime held onto power
by terrorizing Egyptians.”

“US Ambassador Margaret
Scobey in a cable dated
January 15,2009. The letter
calls police brutality “routine
and pervasive” and states that
“police using force to extract
confessions from criminals [is]
a daily event.” A daily shame
written in blood screaming pain

Egypt

A very furious wave of protest finally swept the Egypt's President
After eighteen days of relentless rallies against poverty and corruption.
To autocrats across the Arab world it was sent a real advertisement
And Vice President said a military council would run the affairs of the nation.

A free and fair presidential electionfor September it has been promised
After Mubarak had flown with his family from Cairo to the Red Sea.
People embraced in Cairo's Tahrir the main focus for their protest,
Mubarak left because to their conditions he really didn't agree.

Sobbing for joy, Egyptians celebrated in carnival mood on the street,
They fought to have their freedom and to demand their needed right.
They won, because Mubarak easily broke in his most dispirited final defeat
And “Egypt is free! ” Egyptian people screamed on Friday night.

For Egyptians, Mubarak’s resignation wasn’t only a political matter.
Egyptians noticed how much of their lives had passed under Mubarak.
They have decided that they were going to change their lives for the better.

England In Egypt

FROM the dusty jaded sunlight of the careless Cairo streets,
Through the open bedroom window where the pale blue held the
palms,
There came a sound of music, thrilling cries and rattling beats,
That startled me from slumber with a shock of sweet alarms
For beneath this rainless heaven with this music in my ears
I was born, and all my boyhood with its joy was glorified,
And for me the ranging Red-coats hold a passion of bright tears,
And the glancing of the bayonets lights a hell of savage pride.
So I leaped and ran, and looked,
And I stood, and listened there,
Till I heard the fifes and drums,
Till I heard the fifes and drums,
The fifes and drums of England
Thrilling all the alien air! —
And 'England, England, England,'
I heard the wild fifes cry,
'We are here to rob for England,
And to throttle liberty!'
And 'England, England, England,'

Cairo

Thanks to erich sellheim
Well, let me tell you about my girlie
She goes by the name of sleepy shirley
She become a real life wiro
Since she learned how to do the cairo
And she go
Up up down down
Up up down down
She pours out the sand on the kitchen floor
Then we start to camel through the living room door
She was cool to me, but now her hearts afiro
Since she learned how to do the cairo
And she go

Faith Salons

(brenda kahn/jeff buckley)
From the 1994 brenda kahn promotional ep king of cairo and the 1996 brenda kahn album destination anywhere.
In the faith salons they do your nails for fifteen dimes a bottle, where
Someone in the darkness waits for your arrival. in the faith salons the
Deals are struck, making heroes out of dust and clay. the man gives you
Sixty seconds on the dollar, and walks away. in the middle of your book
Of ages you write your dreams down to the letter. tired of second
Chances and singles dances. her robes were purple velvet feeling like
The king of cairo. prisoners to fools and slaves to paper gods. in the
Faith salons....the books of massacres and natural disasters, beguiled by
Belligerence learned from the dancing masters. the child on the train
Was a mimic mime of babble. the mother knitted sweaters that the child
Would unravel. in the faith salons....they have medicines for madness,
Madness caused by drugs, something for your headache and a spray to kill
The bugs. you walk the catwalk of polyphony, and your charades of
Destiny. to whose myth of creation will you finally fall upon your knees
And cry for forgiveness denied. in the faith salons....shed appear like
A belligerrent ghost in my dreams, in my living room, all torn apart and
Blue, where the ribbons flew and the sky tore like a sheet of rain, of
Dust. peace is a distant mirage where the only truth is the path and

The Four Seasons : Summer

From brightening fields of ether fair disclosed,
Child of the Sun, refulgent Summer comes,
In pride of youth, and felt through Nature's depth:
He comes attended by the sultry Hours,
And ever fanning breezes, on his way;
While, from his ardent look, the turning Spring
Averts her blushful face; and earth, and skies,
All-smiling, to his hot dominion leaves.
Hence, let me haste into the mid-wood shade,
Where scarce a sunbeam wanders through the gloom;
And on the dark-green grass, beside the brink
Of haunted stream, that by the roots of oak
Rolls o'er the rocky channel, lie at large,
And sing the glories of the circling year.
Come, Inspiration! from thy hermit-seat,
By mortal seldom found: may Fancy dare,
From thy fix'd serious eye, and raptured glance
Shot on surrounding Heaven, to steal one look
Creative of the Poet, every power
Exalting to an ecstasy of soul.

A Cairo Rose

A Cairo Rose

Lily white was his shirt
A red rose sprung from his chest,
It grew bigger and wider,
Too heavy for the man who fell into the dust;
The rose liquefied.
Around him an air of stillness.
