Are we cruel people ??

It is the exams season now and sometimes when students can’t write anything in the answer sheet , they write other things than the answers from insults to the teachers mainly to some drawings or even lyrics of Amr Diab songs.

But it is not an usual thing to find a student write what can be considered an indirect criticism in his exam paper to the regime and the people of the country.

This is what happened in Qena ,while correcting a student’s Math answer sheet in the industrial secondary stage second year , a teacher found something made him freak out to report to the administration of the school which decided to reveal the student’s name and punish him.

The student name is Safwat Mohammed Ahmed and according to 50122 the examination committee decision in Luxor on the 15th of June 2008 he would be banned for the rest of the exams which means he would repeat the year again.

It did not stop there, they sent him to the state security in Luxor to continue the investigation !!

They wanted to know why the boy wrote what he had written .

What he had written is the following :

Cruel ruler and unjust people

He did not refer which ruler and which people if you notice.He did not mention the name of Mubarak in any possible way.

The boy said that he did it because he felt so angry , the Math exam was hard and all the rich boys in his class were able to cheat because their parent were able to bribe the teachers where as his poor parents could not do so.

I think this explains the “Unjust people” part , the boy is angry from this unequal unjust society where the rich can cheat as long as he has money.

But what about “Cruel Ruler”

I think he meant that Ruler that makes his society or his people like this is unjust , the ruler that leaves his people like this is unjust .

This is very dangerous thing and violation to human rights

First I do not know what kind of evil and hypocrite teacher would such thing to inform the authorities , in time of Gamal Abdel Nasser this kid would be in some jail now

Second why would they want to kill the spirit of this young man ?? why would they send him to State security ?? so he won’t do it again , well he would not do it again because he did it as an act of despair and anger.

Third this shows that the young generation is real fed up with all that crap in the country.

Look it is like a chain reaction first you got the Kafya guys then the bloggers then the facebook then the people began to express their anger like in Kharga Oasis , Damietta,Al Burullus and of course Al Mahalla ,then you got people who are sick from Corruption and decided to fight it like the doctors of Al Matrya hospital then you got boys like this young man who is simply expressing his thought.

I know that some will tell me these are unrelated stuff and I will tell you sorry that shows that the people again are fed up from this regime , whether they were old or young.

And it is great that the young people began to express their opinions like this .

Believe me it brings to my heart hope
