Lately,
It's much easier to be outraged by the political scene in Egypt, instead
of pitching in with one's own version of one's own part of the equation. Most
of the hardworking citizens don't have the luxury to have an actual misgiving
here or there. "I don't have a choice but to vote to A" said an old
man with an impression that it's a burden, not just towards his fellow
citizens, but also towards his kids. He's in war that could come back to haunt
him, since he's a guy with conscious, probably unlike the candidates. The
underlying reason to choose is 80 percent economic to such goodhearted people.
Sometimes, it's safe haven driven choice. In the middle of all this, they
forgot about Scaf, Are they going to be less involved? Are they going to
preserve peace? Are they going to carry us to conflicts with or without their
own weight? 'Not my problem.", another well-educated young lady who
thinks, priorities are changing.
So, at some point, we'll have to or not to choose
between a theocracy with a long flaky, undetermined and covenant-like past and
a capitalistic former prime minister/minister of aviation who was in the
position of power during the famous "Camel incident".
Call it cruel injustice, fatal course of things,
karma for not having this mutual standpoint. It doesn't matter: we're already
here.
The presentiments we have for now make the
already-documented sentiments towards any President quite vague instead of
merely capturing the essence of the long-term traces any politician leaves
behind. And here, Robert Frost's words
just fit, "I hold it to be the inalienable right of anybody to go to hell
in his own way."
We're in the middle of a battle, now, between a
realistic vision and a dream. Between what could and couldn't happen if we set
our minds on it. This inside flame should turn to something constructive, feel
the other flames, use the portals, enslave the channels to do it, or else, let
the generations to come pay for it.
From a non-practical candidate to another you
couldn't help but think? Who's the least of two evils? Especially, after the
blast Mubarak's trial have made the flame even bigger. Between contrived
demarche of political parties, and the greedy scheme of the candidates, it
feels like the revolution was never over. In fact, it needed that push. Between
Islamists who still don't acknowledge the fact that there's blood spatter on
their hands, with an intimate yet whimsical and goes as the wind blows and
another type of gluttons, upstarters and lightweight status seekers, all what
the revolutionaries have got are the will and perseverance that kept on
dwindling ever since they found themselves in the middle of a deserted war-zone like confined arena, between the
aforementioned and SCAF.
Elections are no more the sole concern, it never
was actually. But if this verdict we heard today is the last straw, so be it.
Poverty,
humiliation, broad-daylight killings, repressed women and unfulfilled children
right, social justice and the list goes on, are what the media dropped while
advertising for "Who's The Boss!". Therefore, there's no better time
for the eruption to make a comeback with a little more unity, a little less
second-hand leaders and a martyr-like hero, "who" has always been the
main aim. Speak of the unspeakable, sheer violence taking place each and
everyday for a start. Then when you come back with pure, exquisite and immanent
priorities, maybe then, the actual goals of the uprising would fall into place.
Egypt could actually have a saying in the region and regain a long lost value
and, who knows? One united nation to aspire for.
