Idiot Noaman Gomaa and Al-Wafd Party

I’ve been following Al-Wafed party saga, and was glad to see Noaman Gomaa 77 behind bars. He reminded me of Saddam Hussein when he got the green light to invade Kuwait, and when he did he was confronted by the whole world and was punished hard. Similarly this was the case with Gomaa who got the green light from the government to forcefully enter the party’s headquarter last Saturday with the help of thugs using all sort of weapons, and when he did and his attempt failed the government had no choice but to arrest him in his disbelieve.

I feel that this is the lowest moment in Egyptian history, when the rule of law is abandoned and corruption governs all walks of life. This is the time when you lose trust in every noble value. It is worrisome to see the police endorse violent by thugs by watching and not acting as if they are mere spectators in a soccer game. This is not the first time we see this behavior form the police, it happened before during round one and two of the parliamentary election last November. The same thing happened during last May referendum and nobody was charged.

I’m surprised that Noaman Gomaa fell into the trap that easily. He tarnished his last bit of respect in the people’s mind, and now he well go down in history as just another unsuccessful politician who destroyed his party with his numerous wrong decisions. Gomaa, a law professor apparently forgot all about the law and decided to take matters into his hands.

It is funny though that both the runner up candidate in the presidential election Ayman Nour and third place candidate Gomaa are both behind bars. This sends a subliminal message to Egyptians saying, don’t dare to challenge Al-Mubarak , if you do, you will rot in jail.

Now Al-Wafd party has a new leader Mustafa Al-Tawil, who seem to be grounded just from reading his article in Al-Wafd online newspaper. He will have a challenge to rebuild the party and gain the trust of the people again. Though it seems that he is just a temp until Wafdist MP Mahmoud Abaza takes over after the next party’s general assembly is held.

The government is worried about liberal parties like Al-Wafd and Al-Ghad because they are approved by the US as a possible future replacement to the current regime that are can deal with, so our government is trying hard to disturb those liberal parties so they have no chance. So far, the government is successful as long as there are traitors such as Noaman Gomaa who are willing to follow government orders.

Some people go further by linking Al-Wafd saga with the planning to appoint Gamal Mubarak to the presidential post by using this as a media distraction so they can go ahead with the plan without being noticed.
