We welcome the Israeli aggression. We welcome the battle we have long awaited. The hour has come. Our suspicions on the Israeli conspirators against our great nations have now been confirmed by our Soviet allies. The Zionists’ audacity to deploy their brigades along the glorious Syrian frontier is an open invitation to war- the long awaited battle has come. Israel doesn’t stand a chance. While our victory is inevitable, we must not underestimate our enemies either. Amongst our cabinet are decorated war heroes, renowned generals, perhaps even the most powerful men in the Middle-East. However, our place in history, our legacy, so to speak, depends entirely on the days to come, on moments to come when we face the Arab world’s greatest enemy. What is expected of you, or rather what is undoubtedly required from you is an unwavering dedication to our cause. You must be quick to think, quick to protect, quick to strike. Every second we waste, the Israelis are gaining an upper hand.

Specifically, these reports focus on those polities where political stability is increasingly threatened but which, under the right conditions, also hold the potential to become long-term U.S. allies. The analysis and recommendations contained in each brief are largely drawn from field research conducted by the authors, and from interviews with each polity’s political and military leaders, religious and secular actors, and academic community, among others.

THESIS Mohamed Elsheikh Y1612.110015 Department of Political Sciences and International Relations Thesis Advisor: Prof. Dr. Özüm Sezin Uzun June, 2019 To my mother who taught me the love of knowledge, ii FOREWORD The Arab Spring revolutions gave sense of optimism to large numbers of young people in the Arab world. They have seen long lasting dictatorships crumble under the pressure of peaceful popular movement. In Egypt, the revolution failed to reach real democracy so far. There are many reasons that led to this result, but the most important cause is the problems in civil- military relations. While the effects of Egypt's foreign policy encouraged military to maintain power and impede democratic transition. Most studies of civil-military relations focused on the internal environment as the conflict revolves between two groups within the state over the power. This study contributes to shedding light on the influence of the external variable on the relationship between civilians and the military in Egypt. Istanbul Aydin University gave me the chance to present this study, which I hope to be useful for researchers interested in Egyptian affairs, as the changes taking place in Egypt have a direct and significant impact on all region.

    تقارير 0 نوفمبر 2017 July 30, 2019 President Morsi & Doctrine of the Egyptian Army Mahmoud Gamal From the early moments of his access to power as President of Egypt and the Supreme Commander of the Egyptian Armed Forces, it was clear that Dr. Mohamed Morsi adopted a military approach that relied on the Egyptian military doctrine instilled and adopted by the historical military leadership of the Egyptian army – although some observers wrongfully thought it had changed after the Camp David Accords signed between Egypt and Israel. In fact, the claim that there was a “change” in the military doctrine of the Egyptian army towards Israel after the Camp David Accords (suggesting that Israel is no longer Egypt’s strategic enemy) relying on President Sadat’s words: “The October War is the last war between Egypt and Israel” and “Peace is a strategic choice of Egypt” – is totally incorrect. Dr. Mohamed Morsi adopted the approach that was adopted by many commanders within the Egyptian army that used to see Israel as the strategic enemy of the Arab and Muslim nations, such as Lt. General Saad al-Din al-Shazli, Field Marshal Mohamed Abdel Ghani el-Gamasy, Field Marshal Mohamed Abu Ghazala, Lt. General Mohamed Fawzi, and Lt. General Mohamed Sadiq. These army commanders believed that the conflict with Israel is an Arab-Israeli conflict, not only a Palestinian- Israeli conflict. During celebrations of the 39th Anniversary of the October War victory in 2012, Dr. Morsi highlighted his attitude towards Israel. For the first time, he issued a presidential decree honoring the late Lt.

  • NGO Response to the Government of Egypt's Report to the UN the Committee Against Torture
    EGYPTE The Human Rights Centre for the Assistance of Prisoners (HRCAP) NGO Response to the Government of Egypt's Report to the UN the Committee against Torture. November2002 Presented with the support of the International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH) Preface: The Egyptian Government submitted its fourth periodical report to the UN Committee Against Torture on 19/11/2001 in fulfillment of its international obligations in accordance with Article 19 of the Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment, ratified by the Egyptian government, published in issue number 11 of the Official Gazette on 11/11/1982. According to the aforementioned Article " The States Parties shall submit to the Committee, through the Secretary-General of the United Nations, reports on the measures they have taken to give effect to their undertakings under this Convention." HRCAP believes it its duty to submit comprehensive comments on the Egyptian government's report with relation to the government's commitments, for the following reasons: 1-The Egyptian government did not disclose the report to the Egyptian public or human right organizations. They - the human rights organizations- were not allowed to participate in the preparation and evaluation of the report. This action on part of the Egyptian government represents a standard policy reflecting a general absence of transparency. The government’s actions are characterized by startling double-standards as it presents itself to the world as a state that respects human rights, while viewing with animosity and suspicion the institutions and individuals working in this field, considering them to be political opponents that challenge its authority.
