المجتمع الذي ينتقد نسبة الطلاق فيه ثم يصر على عدم إتاحة مدة و مساحة للصداقة و التعارف قبل الزواج ، هو مجتمع يتنافق مع نفسه.

المجتمع الذي ينتقد ضرر الأطفال من الطلاق، ثم يصر على عدم استساغة الصداقة ما بين الزوجين المطلقين هو مجتمع يأكل أطفاله.

A society that criticizes its rate of divorce, while it doesn’t allow for space and time for friendship and intimacy before marriage, is a hypocrite society.

A society that criticizes the harm inflicted on children after divorce, while insisting on the inappropriateness of friendship between ex’s is a society that devours its children.

What should you tell your child if he/she asks: “who created God?”

I would say: “What do you think?”

120,000 Egyptian peasants died during the digging of Suez canal. They were forced to work. All that for 15% of the net profit afterwards to Egypt granted by France.

But then Britain occupied Egypt in 1882 and took it for free, till Abdulnasser nationalization in 1956.

The Suez Canal is Egypt’s modern Pyramids. It is a symbol of oppression and slavery.

Subject: The most basic thing we do…

Good Afternoon:

We do great things here.
We grow every day.
We hire more great people.
We grow again.

Once basic thing we have preached since your very first day here is:

WE RETURN ALL PHONE CALLS TO EVERYONE EVERY TIME.

It has come to my attention lately, that some of you have CHOSEN to ignore this most basic philosophy. To cast aside the very DNA this organization is built on.

Some of you have chosen to ARROGANTLY to take and destroy this company’s great reputation single handedly.

Let me make it perfectly clear to those who think they can work here, get paid by this company, and in essence DESTROY OUR REPUTATION AND JOBS by deciding you just “don’t care” …

YOU CANNOT AND WILL NOT WORK HERE ANYMORE. Period.
