Jimmy's Corner

I got connection at home, finally.... Although it is not guarranteed to work 100% all the time. Let's just hope it does. I have got tons to tell. I mean living in another city than the capital does really introduce you to things you don't know they were there. Being so busy at the moment I will save some of them for later posts.

Adios for now!

Yesterday a group of Palestinian militants tried to breach the Egyptian borders again, but this time, there was no "welcome back"! Needless to say, these thugs were surprised when they met so many Egyptian soldiers waiting for them pushing them back into their territory.

And hell, they could not take that one easy... They attacked Egyptian soldiers with graneds, gas, rocks and gunfire. This time, the Egyptian forces were authorized to shoot back but avoid fatal injuried. They used teargas and when then buy firing shots. The tally of the engagment is:

• 38 Egyptian Police soldiers injured
• 2 Egyptian Police officers injured (gun shots)
• 1 Palestinian killed (gun shot)
• 14 Palestinians injured (gas suffocation)

No comment!

It has been almost 4 months since I last posted on the corner. What actually pushed me to come back to writing is the fact that I am feeling provoked by many incidents taking place around us. However, I am not coming back with the same views I had almost two years ago when this blog was first created. To cut it short I will not be merely commenting on or analyzing the events on the political realm. In fact I will also tackle points that matter to me as an Egyptian young man that has just had a part of him awakened, a part he never thought it was there.

Anyway, for the few who still log to see the updates, I must thank you for holding on all this time and promise you to be back hard.
