Egypt: All-Sissi calls for an overhaul of the Islamic discourse, stop backwardness.HT: IsraelFlash.
Well it is time, and especially stop this abominable Arab-Muslim paranoia about Israel and the manipulation of the masses by a shameful and deceitful propaganda - Stop backwardness and ignorance!
Translation by Helios Alexandria - My eve of an article of the Egyptian newspaper Youm7, followed by his comment:
(Youm7) On January 11, General Abdel Fatah el Sissi said in a speech to the directorate for morale Egyptian military: "The adjustment [read change or overhaul] religious discourse is the main battle, and the biggest challenge facing the Egyptian people."
He stressed the need to introduce a new vision and a modern and comprehensive understanding of Islam, replacing immutable that during the last 800 years. He also said it is incumbent on all to conform to the true Islam, to improve the image of the religion to the world, whereas Islam is considered worldwide for decades, as the religion of violence and destruction, because of crimes committed falsely in his name.
Comment Helios Alexandria:
The historian and well-known Egyptian thinker Sayed el Qemni described the rise of Islamism in Egypt (Muslim Brotherhood and Wahhabi Salafism) as a modern version of Islamic invasion of the seventh century AD, and after him the modern version is much worse than the former.
Sayed el Qemni did not preach in the desert last summer more than thirty millions of Egyptians took to the streets twice, demanding that an end to the tyranny of the Muslim Brotherhood. The army bowed to the will of the people, she filed Morsi and facing an unprecedented wave of violence organized by the Muslim Brotherhood, she had no choice but to dissolve the Brotherhood and declare off-the-law as a terrorist organization.
It is an absolute necessity, because it is in the survival of Egypt as a nation.
Egyptians, without being fully aware, have somehow started the RECONQUISTA Egypt, a heavy moral regaining meaning and with unpredictable consequences.
General Abdel Fatah and Sissi has seen its popularity soar alone having listened to the people. This man, there is barely a year, could not imagine having to play a political role, is by the force of destiny at the head of his country. There is a reason for this and it must be sought in the eternal soul of Egypt, or if you prefer in the collective unconscious of the Egyptians.
Indeed Muslim Egypt has repressed its Pharaonic and Christian past, a past that is its true nature slowly rises to the surface and seeks to express. But it is fundamentally incompatible with Islam, if he was not he would not have been repressed. The collective unconscious of the Egyptians is looking for a pharaoh of Egypt restores balance, harmony and peace, that is why el Sissi, on behalf of the Egyptians speak the importance of the overhaul of the Islamic discourse.
How is it that a military commander mixes a subject that is not within its powers? If one refers to the Pharaonic regime, the answer is simple: the Pharaoh in ancient Egypt was not only the king, he was also a religious leader and thereby intermediary between his subjects and the Egyptian gods.
His authority extended over all the temples and all priests. Because Egypt renews quietly with his true nature, his new boss is found naturally assume moral responsibility Pharaoh, for he is indeed moral responsibility, the civilization of ancient Egypt would not have lasted more three thousand years if the Pharaonic institution not based on solid moral foundations. Egyptian morality is summed up in the concept of Maat which can result in truth-justice-balance-order-harmony-peace, just the opposite of Islam.
That is why the general el Sissi considers that the revision of Islamic discourse is the greatest battle that Egypt must win and the biggest challenge facing the Egyptian people.
But the Islamic discourse is neither more nor less than Islam itself, insofar as it is based on the Koran, the Sunna and Sharia; recast or correct returns to fundamentally change the religion that the soul of eternal Egypt and his genius can emerge again. It is an absolute necessity, because it is in the survival of Egypt as a nation.
But el Sissi is also a man of his time, he understands the importance of giving back to Islam, which remains the official religion of the country, a new image. Islam must stop look as "religion of violence and destruction" is neither salable nor presentable, he also feels the old full nose has not changed since one iota since 800 years.
Leaves that take hard graft, it is appropriate to impose new elements (free will, tolerance, respect for difference, humility, forgiveness, etc..) That make it more friendly and certainly more consistent with the spirit of Eternal Egypt. El Sissi is betting that the Egyptian people give a deep sigh of relief when the revised version of Islam to be presented.
Time is short, Egypt must get back on track quickly because its survival is at stake as we know Islam is the main handicap, Islam must change in depth. This is what the Egyptian people want to base itself and that is what the general el Sissi fully understood.Hmmm.....Finally a man with 'Common sense', how long before he gets a 'Death Fatwa' on his head?

Deluded.
But let me state this clearly. I support this guy 100% from what I have seen so far. People have said that he's another "Islamist" (God I hate that term) who is pretending to be someone different but let us not forget that one of Sisi's first acts was the order to rebuild and protect destroyed and at risk churches and Coptic communities throughout Egypt.
As for his want to reform Islam. Like I said, he's deluded. But if, in his delusion, he can get the largest Arab Muslim country to reform the religion itself, I would back that completely.
I don't have much hope Islam will be reformed but like I have said this on many occasions already, seeing what has happened in the past year, Muslims took some steps and are taking steps that will mean their own undoing.
Brotherhood effed up in Egypt. That was their one golden opportunity, they royally effed that up. On top of that, this is another American century when it comes to oil production (despite liberals and Obama) so OPEC is effed too and hence the funding for Jihad is going to be cut. Muslims are screwing with Russia who has traditionally been allied with Muslim idiots. But now Putin seems to have had enough.
Anyway, a Muslim leader who is just looking for the same power over people as every other Muslim leader would not have uttered the following words:
"Well it is time, and especially stop this abominable Arab-Muslim paranoia about Israel and the manipulation of the masses by a shameful and deceitful propaganda - Stop backwardness and ignorance!"
There might be some honesty in this man. I would be careful though but Israel needs to create stronger ties with him.

PS I would be completely surprised if Al-Sisi doesn't just become another Muslim leader. I predict he will give up his aspirations of "reforming Islam". But I do commend him for raising the issue.
He is a fool though. We'll see how he handles this folly.

At the very least, he is a HUGE improvement over Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood.
