Mohammed Ahmed Abboud Pasha. Engineer and contractor. Born about 1880. Of lower middle-class origin. Studied engineering (1904) at Glasgow University, receiving financial assistance from the Turkish Government, through Sheikh Abdul Aziz Shawish, on condition -that he entered Turkish service when qualified. In 1913 he was on the staff of Sir W. Willcocks and Messrs. John Jackson (Limited) on the Euphrates dam. On the outbreak of the war he was employed by the Turkish military authorities in Bagdad; and he worked during the war there and in Damascus, and after the war in Palestine as an army contractor. His partner in one Palestine Railways contract was condemned to prison for fraud. ' PI IRUCRECORD OFFICE ins cms He returned with some capital to Egypt in 1920; professed strong Saadist principles and prospered. In 1926 lie was returned as Wafdist M.P. for Atfih. In December 1926 he obtained a permit to publish AI Kashdf, a daily paper, which appeared under Wafdist colours, but which later reflected pro-Sarwat sympathies and finally faded away. Abboud broke with the Wafd after Mahmoud's coup d'Etat of 1928, and was formally expelled from the Wafdist party in October 1928, after propagandist activities in Mahmoud's interest in London. He was similarly active on Sidky's behalf in London in 1930, and attacked Wafdist maladministration in a Times polemic with Makram Ebeid. He was made a pasha in February 1931, ostensibly for his work in the construction of the Fuadia Canal. He is interesting to us because he represents a large number of important British firms. He was equal partner with Messrs. Topham, Jones and ilailton in the contract for the raising of the Assouan dam, and was at one time the largest shareholder in the Egyptian General Omnibus Company. He claims, not Avithout justice, to have influenced British contracts totalling over £4 million sterling between July 1930 and January 1931. Since the summer of 1932 he has notably increased his influence in palace circles, and is on the worst of terms with Sidky, who at that time developed an interest in a rival (Italian) contractor named Dentamaro. He is shrewd and ambitious, and though his enterprise and initiative have signally benefited United Kingdom manufacturers, he has proved a dangerous and unscrupulous enemy to British interests conflicting with his own.

  • A Message of Solidarity with Jeremy Corbyn from Palestine 8/11/2020
    A message of solidarity with Jeremy Corbyn from Palestine 8/11/2020 We the undersigned, express our solidarity with Mr. Corbyn following the unfair decision by the British Labour Party to suspend such a principled man. For all of us in Palestine, Mr. Corbyn's stands represented a principled path toward social justice and freedom for all human beings regardless of sex, race, faith, ideology or political views. We consider Mr. Corbyn’s position on Palestine cause as a moral compensation for the ethical responsibility Great Britain, as a mandatory power, bears for creating the Nakba and for its failure to abide by the League of Nation Charter (Article 22) to place Palestine on the path to independence and self-determination, while it succeeded remarkably in the implementation of the Balfour Declaration, whose 104th anniversary coincides with the unjust decision taken against Corbyn. We denounce the unfair accusations of anti-Semitism against Mr. Corbyn. We have always known Mr. Corbyn to be a strong fighter against racism including Anti-Semitism. We will always share his stands in fighting Anti-Semitism, Islamophobia and all forms of racism. This is why we see these accusations as a malicious attempt to cover Israeli oppression, injustice and War Crimes which were, and are being, committed against us for long decades by Imperialism and colonial Zionism. We emphasize that exposing Israeli crimes against the Palestinians is not in any way a form of anti-Semitism. To cover Israeli crimes against the Palestinians is an insult to the memory of all innocent Jews who lost their lives in the Holocaust.

  • Playing with Fire. the Muslim Brotherhood and the Egyptian
    Playing with Fire.The Muslim Brotherhood and the Egyptian Leviathan Daniela Pioppi After the fall of Mubarak, the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) decided to act as a stabilising force, to abandon the street and to lend democratic legiti- macy to the political process designed by the army. The outcome of this strategy was that the MB was first ‘burned’ politically and then harshly repressed after having exhausted its stabilising role. The main mistakes the Brothers made were, first, to turn their back on several opportunities to spearhead the revolt by leading popular forces and, second, to keep their strategy for change gradualist and conservative, seeking compromises with parts of the former regime even though the turmoil and expectations in the country required a much bolder strategy. Keywords: Egypt, Muslim Brotherhood, Supreme Council of the Armed Forces, Arab Spring This article aims to analyse and evaluate the post-Mubarak politics of the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) in an attempt to explain its swift political parable from the heights of power to one of the worst waves of repression in the movement’s history. In order to do so, the analysis will start with the period before the ‘25th of January Revolution’. This is because current events cannot be correctly under- stood without moving beyond formal politics to the structural evolution of the Egyptian system of power before and after the 2011 uprising. In the second and third parts of this article, Egypt’s still unfinished ‘post-revolutionary’ political tran- sition is then examined. It is divided into two parts: 1) the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF)-led phase from February 2011 up to the presidential elections in summer 2012; and 2) the MB-led phase that ended with the military takeover in July 2013 and the ensuing violent crackdown on the Brotherhood.

  • (CE:2322B-2324A) WISSA WASSEF (1873-1931), Egyptian Politician
    (CE:2322b-2324a) WISSA WASSEF (1873-1931), Egyptian politician. He was born in Tahta in Upper Egypt. In 1880 his family moved to Cairo, where Wissa finished his secondary education in foreign language schools, which then were numerous in Cairo. His achievement won him a scholarship to France in 1889. In Paris he was admitted to the Ecole normale primaire de Versailles. Three years later he joined the Ecole normale supérieure de St. Cloud, where in 1894 he obtained the teaching qualifications from these schools. Back in Egypt, he became a teacher of science at Ra’s al-Tin School in Alexandria. An ardent patriot, he watched the heavy hand applied by the British colonial administration as all schools came under the supervision of British inspectors. Harassed by one of the inspectors, the young Wissa decided to study law as a means of combating British policies toward education. In the summer of 1902 he departed for France to take his exams. Consequently, he resigned his post as teacher and was the first Egyptian to be admitted as a lawyer before the Mixed Tribunal in Cairo. In 1904 he started publishing articles in English in The Egyptian Gazette, established a private law practice, and joined the faculty of the French School of Law in Cairo. In 1925 he resigned from the Mixed Tribunal and devoted himself entirely to politics. Wissa Wassef joined the Egyptian Nationalist Party in 1906, inspired by the leader Mustafa Kamil, whose ideas and ideals he shared. He was the first Egyptian Christian to join the party and was followed by a colleague, Murqus Hanna, later to become one of its executive members.

  • The Interface of Religious and Political Conflict in Egyptian Theatre
    The Interface of Religious and Political Conflict in Egyptian Theatre Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Amany Youssef Seleem, Stage Directing Diploma Graduate Program in Theatre The Ohio State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Lesley Ferris, Advisor Nena Couch Beth Kattelman Copyright by Amany Seleem 2013 Abstract Using religion to achieve political power is a thematic subject used by a number of Egyptian playwrights. This dissertation documents and analyzes eleven plays by five prominent Egyptian playwrights: Tawfiq Al-Hakim (1898- 1987), Ali Ahmed Bakathir (1910- 1969), Samir Sarhan (1938- 2006), Mohamed Abul Ela Al-Salamouni (1941- ), and Mohamed Salmawi (1945- ). Through their plays they call attention to the dangers of blind obedience. The primary methodological approach will be a close literary analysis grounded in historical considerations underscored by a chronology of Egyptian leadership. Thus the interface of religious conflict and politics is linked to the four heads of government under which the playwrights wrote their works: the eras of King Farouk I (1920-1965), President Gamal Abdel Nasser (1918-1970), President Anwar Sadat (1918-1981), and President Hosni Mubarak (1928- ). While this study ends with Mubarak’s regime, it briefly considers the way in which such conflict ended in the recent reunion between religion and politics with the election of Mohamed Morsi, a member of the Muslim Brotherhood, as president following the Egyptian Revolution of 2011. This research also investigates how these scripts were written— particularly in terms of their adaptation from existing canonical work or historical events and the use of metaphor—and how they were staged.
