The German Embassy in Cairo Mourns Dr.Marwa

First of all it seems that if it were not for the angry protests in Cairo and Alex the Western media would not give attention to late Dr. Marwa awful murder.

Not only the Western media but also the German officials , the German chancellor met Mubarak and discussed the matter with him . I know that the German officials do not give a damn for our officials’ reactions but they care for the public reaction , the anger.

To be honest I respect what Ambassador Erbel had done in the last week , I believe the man  has not faced something a crisis like this before in this way. He met with Marwa’s family to present his official condolence and before that he was among the first recipients of Marwa in Cairo airport.

Today in Al Ahram’s weekly Friday issue “which has the highest readership” the Germany Embassy in Egypt published an obituary mourning Dr. Marwa.

The embassy official website in Cairo also published a press statements from both Ambassador Erbel and Dresden Prime minister of Saxony Tillich

In an interview with Al Arabiya channel Marwa’s father refused that the crime would be used in a counter violence against the west. This is so true because some radicals from both sides are using the incident to widen the gap between the Muslims and Europe. I believe we should be logic in our anger.

  1. Well, you can't be logical "in" anger. You can and should control your anger. Once out of anger you can be logical and look back upon the incidents seeking to analys and understand. Unfortunately such is the missed phase in our reactions to incidents no matter how signeficant they might be. We seem to be either in anger, in denial, or completely oblivious of whatever happens to us.

  2. i think what happened was terrible

    but having tons of demonstrations displaying some kind of arab victimhood from the west as if this killing could represent some kind of generalization of german or western opinion is poor form

    why does the western media so badly need to push this story?
