عدد قليل من المخرحين المصريين اللي كانت نضالات العمال حاضرة في سينماهم، تحديدا الروائية، وأكيد بيجي في بالنا رواد الواقعية الأولى زي صلاح أبو سيف، وأحمد كامل مرسي وتوفيق صالح، والمخرجين اللي اشتغلوا أثناء وبعد الحرب العالمية الثانية زي كمال سليم في «العزيمة» أو كمال التلمساني في «السوق السوداء»، وبالفعل البعد الاجتماعي أو الطبقي موجود في أفلامهم، لكن حضور الطبقة العاملة كمجال للنزاع والحق والتنظيم والنقابات، كحالة نضالية دائمة، ككتلة متحركة ثائرة، كجزء حقيقي من تاريخ عمال البلد غير المحكي، كانت بس تقريبا في سينما يوسف شاهين. فرغم وصفه بالخواجة والمستشرق وإنه «مش مننا» و«ما يعرفش عرق الشعب»، إلا إنه أكتر شخص في السينما الروائية المصرية اتكلم عن نضال العمال.
في حلقتنا من بودكاست «سينما صيفي» هنتأمل ونفتكر الظهور اللافت والمتكرر لحركة العمال وأوضاعهم في سينما شاهين.

#Egypt Mohamed Saad Khirallah: It caught my attention in the mystery of the murder of the Israeli businessman “Ziv Kipper” in Alexandria that the language used in the statement of the group that calls itself the “Group of the Martyr Muhammad Salah Vanguards of Liberation” is strange. The vocabulary and terminology used have nothing to do with terrorist groups that use violence, and which have their own discourse. Their vocabulary and terminology have legal and jurisprudential origins from their point of view (and whoever speaks otherwise on this particular point is deliberately confusing). I speak from the standpoint of my practical experience in the file of political Islam movements from years ago until today. Firstly. @egypt

A team of Israeli officials is now in #Cairo and it remains to be seen what will become of the latest ceasefire plan brokered by #Egypt and #Qatar. This proposal centres around a halt in fighting and the return of some of the more than 130 Israeli hostages in exchange for #Palestinian prisoners being held in Israel. Camille Knight looks at the sticking points in the truce proposals. #Israel#Gaza#Hamas
"The Egyptian authorities fear that any demonstrations will be exploited to criticise the regime’s position, which is not compatible with the country’s moral, political and historical responsibility for Gaza."
"Egypt is governed by a policy of silencing people and crushing any form of dissent."
I just remembered under Sisi, they arrested Al Jazeera journalists, one of them held for 4 year without a trial. Not really a nice place to demonstrate ...

“Israel's control of the Rafah crossing may present a threat to a September 2005 agreement with #Egypt, known as the Philadelphi Accord.”
“‘Israel occupying Rafah means occupying the Gaza side of the Philadelphi Corridor, which would be a violation of the 2005 addendum to the 1979 peace treaty,’ International Crisis Group analyst Joost Hiltermann told Middle East Eye.
"’It is doubtful that the Egyptians would have greenlighted this.’
“An Egyptian military source claimed that Egypt has not authorised the Rafah crossing operation…”

Axios cites two sources as stating that Israeli forces are going to take over the Palestinian side of the #Rafah crossing between #Egypt and Gaza in the next few hours.
The Israeli military have started it's ground offensive against Rafah by the border of Egypt by air, artillery and tanks.
There are reports of heavy bombings and classes by the border, with no reaction from the Egyptian military despite loud warning about such acts just a few weeks ago.

Accounts of the wedding events have generated hearty debate across multiple social media platforms, with many claiming that the event was needlessly extravagant.
This unconfirmed rumor is a threatening scenario, especially for Egypt.
“If Israel decides to launch a Ground Invasion of Rafah in the Southern Gaza Strip, Hamas is reportedly planning to use Explosives to Blow Holes in several Sections of the Border Fence between Egypt and the Gaza Strip causing a Mass Exodus of Palestinian Migrants into the Sinai Peninsula, with Hamas Officials hoping that this will apply Significant International Pressure on Israel to Withdraw.” #hamas#gaza#israel#egypt
Hamas said it has accepted a proposal from Egypt and Qatar for a cease-fire. It is not immediately clear what the proposal entails, nor what Israel's position is.

TikTok CEO #ShouZiChew has said the company will take the fight against the new law to the courts, but some experts believe that for the #US#SupremeCourt, national security considerations could outweigh #FreeSpeech protection.
The move comes after hours of whiplash in the #Israel-#Hamas war, with the militant group on Monday saying it accepted an Egyptian-Qatari mediated cease-fire proposal. Israel, meanwhile, insisted the deal did not meet its core demands. #Egypt#Qatar
Arabs have said they will recognize Israel as long as there is a path to an independent #Palestine, where the two exist side-by-side.
For #Bibi to harbor ambitions to get #Palestinians to flee so that Israel can move in permanently would not only be illegitimate, it would be a grievous folly
#Egypt has warned that any seizure of Rafah — which is supposed to be part of a demilitarized border zone — or an attack that forces Palestinians to flee over the border into Egypt would threaten the 1979 peace treaty with Israel that’s been a linchpin for regional security.
