This, also, is beyond our human understanding.... <BR/><BR/>Furthermore, they perceive a great threat to their own power and influence--ego and attachment to power become their prime motives for their actions....Bilohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08060802520953738221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29145551.post-1159364783250200592006-09-27T09:46:00.000-04:002006-09-27T09:46:00.000-04:00hmmm, for such a small number of Bahais in Egypt, ...hmmm, for such a small number of Bahais in Egypt, the clerical establishment is acting as thought it were set upon by a hundred wasps! Of course the wasps cannot be avoided, for they exist in the world of their mind. or is it more correctly that it is their conscious that is pricking them?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14948341359264244662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29145551.post-1159326179213880652006-09-26T23:02:00.000-04:002006-09-26T23:02:00.000-04:00It has been published in the daily newspaper editi...It has been published in the daily newspaper edition of Rose el-Yousef (established more recently). Therefore, it is separate from their weekly magazine publication. The website takes you only to the magazine and not the newspaper, that is why you--and I--could not find it. Apparently, so far there is no website for the newspaper.Bilohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08060802520953738221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29145551.post-1159303547126996932006-09-26T16:45:00.000-04:002006-09-26T16:45:00.000-04:00I assume that this story was printed on paper agai...I assume that this story was printed on paper again rather than in their on-line publication, which makes it a bit difficult to express our opinions to the writers and editors.<BR/><BR/>In fact I know that it wasn't on their on-line version because when I used their search engine, I couldn't find anything related to the word "Baha'i" in any of their previous articles.<BR/><BR/>It's normal to have different stories for different audiences, but it seems that Rose El-Yousef goes way out of its way to prove its patriotism and Islamism to the domestic audience. - GhanimAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
