Bravo President Trump !

A letter for history
Reviewed: 01-03-20
The main lacking in the letter is the voice of Donal Trump.
It seemed at the beginning that the reader of the letter was a democrate.
I am not a republican or an American. But the tone and pause betrey the intention.
The president brought fourth examples that are more worthy of examining than the ones used against him.
In Arabia we have say that follows.
The eye of acceptance shows merits,
and the eye of disapproval shows negatives

Story
In 2013, just two years after the popular overthrow of Hosni Mubarak, the Egyptian military ousted the country's first democratically elected president - Mohamed Morsi of the Muslim Brotherhood - and subsequently led a brutal repression of the Islamist group. These bloody events echoed an older political rift: the splitting of nationalists and Islamists during the rule of Egyptian president and Arab nationalist leader Gamal Abdel Nasser. Fawaz Gerges, one of the world's leading authorities on the Middle East, tells how the clash between pan-Arab nationalism and pan-Islamism has shaped the history of the region.

Why didn’t anyone tell the narrator he was mispronouncing the name of the guy the book was about?

The book speaks about facts.
Reviewed: 09-08-19
Albeit the author speaks about facts from those who lived the Era of the said period.
The narrative is a bit biased.
Especially when Fawaz Gerges hammers down on the faullts of the ikhwan and let go those who denied the Arab masses from the right to vote.
Then he label that by the idea of his book "the making of the Arab mind".
Then he blames the opposition movement in the Arab world for appeasement with the military.
What may the opposition do if the government have the internal ministry, parliament and judiciary within its apparatus.
Look at the expansion of jail population on the bases of politics in Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Emirates.
The book was published before the kashogi affair. But what happened with kashogi is what happen to like minds of him with in Arabia. With the exception of Oman Kuwait and Qatar.
Look at the Civil War raging in Libya, Syria and Yeman.
It occurred because of the mismanagement of the economy and the disrespect received by the population by the government at different places.
Whether at their commute or at government service points.

بسم الله،
يحوي الكتاب على عدد من القصص على اللسنة الناس و اللسنة البهائم من الدواب والطير. حول قيم الوفاء والصدق والاخلاص والنصيحة. وما يخالف الحسن من القول والفعل. وعلى المستمع التحصف لقرائة الأخت الفاضلة نور. فانها على وتيرة واحدة تقريبا في القراءة. وثمة أماكن يستحق عندها الابطاء هنيهة. وسمي الكتاب على قصة اول بهيمتين يستهل بها الكتاب الا و هما كليلة و دمنة. والسلام

A note on "intelligence matters"
Reviewed: 07-26-19
Senator Bob Graham is a habitual noter of what occurs during his day, One would find everything laid out bair in his book. From political bargaining on giving membership of committees to administrative forms that produce a giving outcome. Whether that outcome is negative or positive. Some are still present from back then until today,
The narrative would catch from the beginning. However then the let downs that occured after , would make one wonder how did that happen?
Those who learn from the past will be better prepared for the future.

beautiful narratives

the narration and the story pulls one in. the authors do not merely speak about how to make that goal or that. they dig deeper into the psychology of the process of spending.
