Egypt's Shameful Day -- Bloodbath on the Nile There are moments in a nation's history that become etched in stone. Such was the Palestinian Nakba, the atomic bombs dropped over Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and the September 11 attacks. The horrors unfolded on August 14 will go down in Egypt's history as such a momentous event.

From Stalemate to Checkmate -- Meet Egypt's Future Leaders The revolution has adapted to the maneuvering of the regime and has adopted a comprehensive program of activities that are creative and extensive. Time is no longer on the regime's side. With the passing of each week more Egyptians are joining the revolution. A culture of freedom and empowerment is on the rise. Mubarak and his Western backers better take notice. Checkmate.

Understanding Tunisia's Elections Results The same old Islamophobic voices, that raised false alarms echoing Israeli-hyped fears over 20 years ago and poisoned the atmosphere between the West and moderate Islamic groups, are back at it again.

Grasping the Syrian Quagmire The US committed a grave miscalculation when it invaded Iraq in 2003. The Bush administration had the illusion that Iraq would somehow become an American colony, its military base, a client state, or America's gas station. At the end, it handed over Iraq to Iran on a silver platter as Iran's allies have taken over the country.

Ninety Days of Popular Uproar -- Taking Stock of the Arab Revolutions It is remarkable how in a relatively short period of time -- three months -- the entire Arab World has been transformed from a static and bleak political status quo to a dynamic and lively force for far-reaching change. Hence, it is prudent to take the time to assess the political sea change across the Arab world in the past few months.

Egyptian Military Checkmated Underestimated by his critics and dismissed by his opponents, Morsi has demonstrated coolness under pressure, toughness, and shrewdness uncharacteristic to Egyptian politicians. With the exceptions of Mubarak's remnants his actions were overwhelmingly approved by Egyptians from diverse political, ideological, and pro-revolution groups.

Bin Laden and the Spring of Arab Revolutions Since 9/11 the U.S. military and national security agencies in the U.S. have been mobilized to pursue a phantom enemy, vastly inflated in Western imagination so much so that every Muslim activist or religiously observant is transformed and looked at as a potential terrorist or a threat.

Back to Square One in Egypt? The youth are determined not to put their trust in either the military or the political class but on their capacity to stay the revolutionary course until all their objectives are achieved. Hundreds of their pioneers, led by dozens of women among the first to call for the January 25 demonstration that sparked the revolution, have been on hunger strike and continuous sit-in for over a week in the middle of Tahrir Square.

Egypt's Political Map: Clearing the Fog The political class in Egypt is so polarized currently that it is difficult to see a light at the end of the tunnel. But the Egyptian people deserve to realize the fruits of their remarkable revolution. There must be a real national dialogue between all major parties regardless of ideology or political affiliation.

Conspiracy in Action -- Leaked Audio Shows Egypt's Coup Leaders as a Criminal Syndicate More than 40 years ago, Nixon told the American public that he was not a crook, only to be shamed nine months later and admit that indeed he had violated the law and had to resign. But the military generals in Cairo are not only crooks by their own admission, but also murderers, thugs, and psychopaths. The international community is looking the other way while Egypt descends into turmoil and chaos.

The Calculus of Egypt's Presidential Race The first round of the presidential race is scheduled for May 23 and 24. If no candidate receives more than 50 percent of the vote, then a run-off between the top two contenders would take place on June 16 and 17. Most experts predict that absent massive elections' fraud sanctioned by the military and ignored by the Elections Committee, no candidate would actually receive a majority after the first round.

Fed Up and Taking to the Streets, But What are the Demands? If the Arabs' anger at the repression and corruption of their governments has led to the popular uprisings and protests throughout this year, will the greed and unholy alliance between unrestrained capitalism and the political class, produce mass protests across America?

The Tom and Jerry Show -- Back to Tahrir Square The immediate problem now is the total lack of trust between the people in the streets and the military council. The people are tired of the cat-and-mouse game played by SCAF, where every major demand is only conceded through much struggle.

The Sacking of a Revolution There is no doubt that the failure of the revolutionary groups to unify their ranks and field a single candidate or a presidential ticket has cost them the chance to come out on top. Despite the intense interest and the high stakes, it appears that most Egyptians are tired and simply did not show up.

Gaza, Egypt and Syria: a Common Thread of Genocide, War Crimes, and Wars Against Humanity Today's wars seem to be against mostly civilians -- women, children, the elderly -- those who cannot fight back or defend themselves. Stark proof that, no matter where the war is, it is Genocide, War Crimes, and Wars Against Humanity.

Egypt's Destiny Between Four Political Forces and Four Dates History rarely repeats itself but the wise always learn from its lessons. The 2011 Egyptian uprising was a remarkable event that displayed many positive attributes about the Egyptian youth and their future aspirations. But the moment the revolutionary partners broke ranks within days of toppling Egypt's former dictator, there was not much chance to advance the march towards genuine change.

Clinton in Cairo Throughout her trip, Clinton was met with angry supporters of the military and Mubarak's remnants, who accused the US of supporting the MB. The US strategy is to give the Islamic rising powers a chance to govern as long as they agree to: keep the Americans in, the Chinese and Russians out, the Iranians down, and the Israelis safe.

The Making of Egypt's President If the elections to be held on May 23 and 24 are free and fair, and no one candidate exceeds 50 percent of the vote, then most of the votes of the eliminated candidates in the second round on June 16 and 17 would probably go to Abol Fotouh, making him the first president of the post-Mubarak Egypt -- a big if since the remnants, the U.S. and Israel are not about to concede -- not yet.

Egypt's Constitution, the Opposition, and the Dialogue of the Deaf For the past three weeks, Egypt has been in turmoil. Its political structure has fractured almost fatally. The political order has become a zero-sum game. In their rush to discredit each other, both broad coalitions disregarded the cries and suffering of the average man or woman in the street. The economic situation in Egypt has deteriorated so much that poverty, unemployment, and crime have risen to unprecedented levels.

Islamic Parties Win 75 Percent of Seats in Egyptian Elections A a major confrontation in Egyptian streets between SCAF and the Islamic and revolutionary parties is quite possible. If the military takes away the right of the Parliament to appoint the constitution-writing assembly as well as its right to form a new government that was elected by the people, then what exactly was the purpose of the popular elections?
