ARAB WORLD SINKING INTO TRIBAL FEUD

Islamism may be good, but not in the way executed by radical groups,
whose main business is terrorism and disturbances.
The scuffle on the football field at Port Said was not something
unexpected, at large. Egypt, like all the other countries of the
"Arab Spring" came to be involved in the chaos currently on in
Libya, Tunisia, and outlined in Syria. Just a reason was necessary
for starting the war "all against all", and this football match was
just a finest occasion.
PanARMENIAN.Net - Once again, in Tahrir Square there gathered several
thousand people to protest against the events of February 1 in Port
Said. They demanded, as always, the government's resignation and
execution of Chairman of the Supreme Council of the armed forces of
Egypt, Marshal Hussein Tantawi, presently performing the function of
the head of state until presidential election. It turns out that Hosni
Mubarak, a tyrant and a dictator, for whom a death penalty is demanded,
at least kept the country in a tight grip and did not give vent to
the instincts of killing and robbing. One can even assume that the
present Parliament of Egypt, consisting mainly of "Muslim Brothers"
sought exactly such orgy in the country to introduce Sharia law as
soon as possible and deal shortly with the Christian population. Now
it's a fact that soon there will be no Christians in Egypt. First,
the tribes will get square with one another, then the rest will kill
the Copts. Though ... the Copts are already being murdered: Not for
nothing nobody touched them under Mubarak, although they were not
allowed to climb the career ladder.
The lower house of the Egyptian Parliament put the victims of the
Port Said football stadium tragedy on a par with the victims of
the revolutionary events in January 2011 shot to disperse the mass
anti-government demonstrations. In fact, Parliament accused Mubarak of
authorizing both last year's shooting down and the current carnage,
though being a sick old man behind bars and confined to bed. It is
quite understandable that "Muslim Brotherhood" should try to shift
the responsibility for the collapse of the country on the "dictator"
and not on themselves, who lost control over the state. Islamism may
be good, but not in the way executed by radical groups, whose main
business is terrorism and disturbances.
It should be noted that the fans of "Al-Ahly", also known as "ultras",
are especially famous for their bad behavior. Recently they have
often been involved in clashes with the police.
According to the BBC, the opposition blames the government for what
happened, because, as they say, it proved unable to ensure the safety
of its citizens. Many recall that the fans of Cairo "Al-Ahly" took
part in demonstrations in Tahrir Square in Cairo, which resulted in
the overthrow of President Hosni Mubarak. Presidential candidate
Hamdin Sabahi declared that "what happened in Port Said was a
terrible punishment for fans of "Al-Ahly" for they participated in
the revolution."
Let us recall that the scuffle on the football field at Port Said
was the worst since October 16, 1996, when during the panic at the
stadium in Guatemala 78 people were killed and 189 got injured after
the World Cup qualifying match between Guatemala and Costa Rica.
However, the situation wouldn't be so bad, but for the hypocritical
message of the UN Secretary-General, in which he was "extremely
saddened by the death of over 74 people and hundreds of others injured
in the violence that erupted in the Egyptian city of Port Said." "Ban
Ki-moon has expressed his condolences to the bereaved families and
wished a speedy recovery to the injured," the UN News Center cites the
press secretary of the Secretary-General. Ban Ki-moon also expressed
confidence that Egyptian authorities will take appropriate measures
in response to this tragic incident.
Meanwhile, a civil war is gaining momentum in Libya, another country
that fell victim to the "Arab Spring". In the Libyan capital, Tripoli
explosions are bursting out, a dense smoke lies over the city, and
an armed clash has erupted between two "revolutionary brigades".
According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Libya, the conflict
involves militia of Misurata, an opposition center during the Libyan
uprising, and a division from Zintana, another important stronghold of
the rebels. The parties exchange fire by the beach Es Saadi near the
center of Tripoli. According to the UN High Commissioner for Human
Rights, Navi Pillay, "The government of Libya has not yet achieved
effective control" over the "revolutionary brigades", groups, which
last year took part in the hostilities against the army of Gaddafi.
Thus, either the UN is unaware of what is actually happening in Arab
countries, or it deliberately turns a blind eye to the prolonged
spring. The second viewpoint, unfortunately, is more probable and it
is the path by which the UN and the West are determined to take Syria.
However, they've failed so far: Russia and China voted down the demands
of resignation of President Assad not for great love, but for a simple
calculation that if intertribal war starts also in Syria, it could
spread over to anywhere, even to Russia. The number of Islamist groups
openly proclaiming jihad is growing rapidly, and President Barack
Obama obviously hurried declaring that by the killing of Osama bin
Laden there was put an end to the threat of "Al-Qaeda". Alas, this
threat will linger for a long time, even after the U.S. withdraws
its troops from Afghanistan or, what is almost impossible, refrains
from its bases in Saudi Arabia. Until then, "revolutions" in Arab
countries will continue with a surprising regularity. If the Arab
states proved unable to unite against a common enemy - the State of
Israel - they will never come to an agreement with each other.
And last of all, most apparently, the thought of success of
Saddam Hussein and Muammar Gaddafi's murderers keeps the Egyptian
"revolutionaries" awake at night: they must also execute Mubarak,
and now Tantawi. Whether they will be happier and richer afterwards
is a big issue. Sooner no, than yes.
