One-State, Two-State vs. NO-STATE

While most people argue between the merits of a Two-State vs. One-State solutions, one man, and his followers believe in a continuous State-of-War and that War is Peace.

Israel Faces Tough Choices (Updated)

Updated 25 May 2024

Israel Faces Tough Choices

In a previous article, I suggested that Israel has lost the war. Truth of the matter is, Israel has lost much more than that. Israel has lost its ability to fineness its way and hide its crimes. This time things just went out of control. No hasbara, no matter how good, could do the trick. It is now very difficult to see a viable path forward. And it is even tougher to write about one.

More Bad News

The last few days carried very bad news for Israel. 
Somehow, Hamas has managed to regroup its forces in the North (in areas which Israel had bulldozed) and the Middle of Gaza and has been attacking Israeli forces with devastating blows.
Israeli losses are huge. And things seem to be getting worse, not better. The situation, militarily and strategically, is untenable. This must have contributed to why Gallant has made this speech.
The only achievement which Israel has been able to do, was to destroy Gaza, kill and injure over 110,000 people, majority are women and children, which has turned the world public opinion against it and sent it to the International Court of Justice and ICC.

But that's not all. The UN General Assembly voted with a landslide majority to recommend that the Security Council reconsiders Palestine's application for  membership and has granted Palestine more rights and privileges. The world body approved the resolution by a vote of 143-9 with 25 abstentions.

But just when you think things could get any worse for the apartheid state, the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, Karim Khan, announced that he is seeking arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant, prime minister and minister of defense of Israel. Many European countries, traditionally faithful allies of Israel, had to adhere to their obligations and announced that that they will comply with the ICC arrest warrants, if such are indeed are issued by the judges. 

As if all this was not enough, Ireland, Spain and Norway just announced that they are recognizing Palestine as a state.

Only 4 days later, the International Court of Justice ordered Israel to immediately halt its Rafah military offensive, withdraw its troops, and open the crossings for humanitarian aid and assistance.

This may be the worst May which Israel has witnessed in its short history. The Month of May is when Israel commemorates its 'independence', and the founding of the state.

A Strategic Defeat

Strategically, Israel has been utterly defeated. A total defeat which will shake its very foundations for years, if any. I came to that conclusion because:

• Israel has failed to implement the "final solution" (ethnic cleansing of Gaza through pushing Gazans into the Sinai desert), after Egypt fortified the borders and announced that this will be a red line. Breaching that red line may lead to revoking the Peace Treaty.
• Israel has failed to destroy Hamas. As Israel pushes to the South, Hamas regrouped in the North and the Middle of Gaza.
• Israel has failed to free the hostages. Israel has killed more of its hostages than it has managed to release.
• Strategically, Israel has lost the world's public opinion. The global protests and condemnations, student encampment, and a social media sentiment of about 9:1 against Israel, all point to colossal strategic defeat and very hard times ahead. In fact, Israel's legitimacy, its very existence, is now being questioned.

With these difficult circumstances, Israel was facing very tough choices. But since the last article, more bad news for Israel has emerged.

The Final Solution

To keep his government afloat (and stay out of jail), Netanyahu had to subscribe to the right wing's dream (or nightmare) of the final solution. Ben Gvir and those on his bandwagon, believe that Palestinians must leave. At least to them this campaign is not really about Hamas, Oct 7 or even the hostages. It's about completing the job of ethnic cleansing which started in 1948. Their hope is that with enough pressure, Egypt will open the borders and let them in. They said it publicly so many times. They even suggested that the move will be temporary. But Palestinians of course know, once they are out, they will never see their homes again. Most residents of Gaza are themselves refugees and the descendants of those ethnically cleansed before from other parts of Palestine.

Why Rafah?

Why does Israel insist on invading Rafah, despite many reasons against the invasion:

• It is a very small area, crowding in it are almost one and a half million people. Most of them already evacuated from the North of Gaza or other places. The human cost will be catastrophic, further isolating Israel and entrenching its position as a pariah state.  
• Hamas has already regrouped in the North. So, why would Israel go after them in the South?
• The whole world is warning Israel not to do it. Even Biden stopped one arms shipment as a result of Netanyahu's stubbornness on the Rafah issue.

In my opinion, the reason why Israel is determined to invade Rafah, can be understood from its 1948 ethnic cleansing tactics. A village would be attacked from 3 directions, leaving a safe exit which the evicted residents could take, usually pointing to the nearest border.  
It is the same with Rafah. Rafah is the closest point in Gaza to the Egyptian border. By intensifying the attacks on Rafah, a humanitarian catastrophe will unfold, and Egypt will find itself forced to open the borders for humanitarian reasons. At least, this is what the 
settler extremists were hoping for.

Egypt Refused to 'Play Ball'

But Egypt 'refused' to play ball, and instead, announced that this is a red line not to be crossed. Crossing that line will mean suspending or revoking the Peace Treaty and worse. Egypt has since intervened in the ICJ genocide case, joining South Africa. Egyptian officials also made sure to clearly communicate the message to the Americans and Europeans. Pushing Gazans into Sinai is not to happen. 

What Comes Next?

With an arrest warrant, Netanyahu's position has become untenable. And since Gallant may also be expecting an arrest warrant, both have become toxic assets.

Can Gantz fill that void? Doubtful. Gantz seemed to have aligned himself with Biden and the polls show that if elections are held in Israel he would win, but who will call for elections?

Ben Gvir and Smotrich seem to cling to the "final solution" scenario, but with the entire world now looking at the ICJ genocide case and Netanyahu/Gallant potential arrest warrants, it is virtually impossible to actually implement their ethnic cleansing plans.

Israel will be facing turbulent times. It could even descend into a civil war. Ben Gvir has been arming and emboldening the settlers. This is why they attack Palestinians in the West bank and assault the aid trucks. It will be a tough job for the next government to stop them now.

In a way, the Israeli government is already divided.  While one part of the government attempts to find ways for food and aid to get into Gaza to keep their promises to the Americans (in order to maintain the flow of arms shipments, much-needed by the army which is facing unprecedented losses), another part (Ben Gvir et al), are supporting settlers who are vandalizing and burning the aid trucks.

The coming days may be carrying big changes. But we just have to wait and see what actually comes next.

The Making of Incredibly Negative National Karma

Attack on Freedom Flotilla:

Why should Israel Behave?

The first lesson of manners you learn as a child is that misbehavior has consequences. Undesirable consequences. You throw the bowl of macaroni on the floor and your mum or dad will give you the first angry look you ever experience. You spill some paint over mummy's favorite Turkish hand-made rug and there is no dessert for you for a week. What happens to kids who do not have that kind of discipline? What if out of love, guilt or whatever; mum decides to close an eye tolerating your every bad behavior? You then become spoilt, irresponsible, reckless, selfish and abusive of others. Eventually, these flaws will come back and haunt you to your demise as an adult.

What did the International Community do to Israel when it massacred women and children in Qana? Or in Sabra and Shatila? or in Gaza? For as long as we can remember, Israel has owned a permanent seat in the United Nations Security Council. That seat should have been occupied by the United States of America, but it is mainly used for the benefit of Israel. The US is using veto power to shield Israel from international reprisal or even mere verbal condemnation.

When Israel killed more than 1,200 civilians in Gaza in 2008-2009 campaign, including more than 400 children, using internationally banned weapons, nothing really happened. The Goldstone report? What about it? When Israel announced that it rejected the idea that it should freeze building of settlements over occupied territories as a condition for resuming negotiations, President Obama backed down. When, during a visit of Vice President Biden to Israel, it announced building of new settlements in Jerusalem, which analysts considered as a slap on the face to the US, Israel only received a few angry comments from Secretary Clinton complaining about this public humiliation. But soon after, the whole thing was forgotten. Israel received more support. Israel felt more invulnerable than ever.

This last attack on a "Freedom Flotilla," which left around 10 civilians dead, is just one other incident. But it shows a new level of contempt to the international community. The fleet, which was carrying food, medical supplies and construction materials to Gaza, included vessels flying various flags. Over 700 activists from many nationalities -- Europeans, Americans, Arabs, and possibly Israelis -- were aboard. Former diplomats, members of parliament and public figures were amongst the activists. Israel attacked the fleet in International Waters hundreds of kilometers away from its coast even though the vessels raised white flags. Commando soldiers were aired by helicopters then abseiled into the vessels, opening fire on unarmed civilians at 4:30 a.m. Israel claims that it was acting within the boundaries of International Law and that its soldiers were attacked by the activists on one of the ships. But the blockade over Gaza which Israel is trying to enforce is seen by the UN as illegal. Moreover, Israeli soldiers have no jurisdiction over a ship sailing in international waters. Israel, as usual, has a special understanding of international law, giving it rights that no other state has.

Through this incident, Israel sends yet another message of contempt to the international community. The message says, "I will continue to occupy and blockade lands that belong to other people. I will continue to kill civilians, women and children. And if your activists dare to intervene, I will kill them too. I will do all of that, because I know. I get away with murder."

Today, we must ask ourselves: Why should Israel behave? When did Israel experience consequences to its actions? Although it may be already too late, it is time the world took a firm stand against this reckless attitude of aggression and total disregard to International Law. Israel has proved itself to be a Rogue state, as even some Israeli Scholars told CNN. But Israel will pay a heavy price for this from its own future chances of survival. As a state, Israel has acquired so much negative karma that it would be difficult to envision a future where Israel can enjoy respect or good intentions from citizens of this earth. States and countries have been powerless, so far in making Israel behave and improve its own national karma. But a growing power shift to the people has proved irreversible. Through this and similar reckless acts, Israel gradually lost its sympathizers, one by one. In a world where the people monitor the news live 24/7 and freely form opinions of their own, Israel's future is becoming more and more uncertain. And maybe this is why Israel must now start to behave.

A Message of Contempt to the World

باغتيال مدنيين عزل في المياه الدولية - إسرائيل تبعث برسالة احتقار جديدة للمجتمع الدولي - الرسالة تقول "أبوكم وأمكم - كلكم على جزمتي - حاقتل وادبح بمزاجي يا ولاد الأمم المتحدة"

Israeli killings of unarmed civilians in International Waters sends a message of contempt to the world. The message says, "SCREW YOU ALL. I GET AWAY WITH MURDER."

Why Shocked

UN Envoy Shocked by

Israeli Killings of

Unarmed Civilians in

International Waters !!!

"We are shocked by reports of killings and injuries of people on board boats carrying supplies for Gaza, apparently in international waters," said a joint statement from Robert Serry, U.N. special coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process, and Filippo Grandi, commissioner-general of the UN Relief and Works Agency. "We condemn the violence and call for it to stop."

http://edition.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/meast/05/31/gaza.protest/index.html?hpt=T1

Why are you shocked? What did the UN do to bring Israel to accountability for its past murderous behavior?

WE WILL NOT GO DOWN - song for Gaza

WE WILL NOT GO DOWN

a song for Gaza

Written and Performed by

Michael Heart

This is an awesome song. Art can and does inspire people. Art can and does awaken our human conscience ...

... as Boudica would say ... (http://www.lit.org/view/44402)

"Poets come riding on the fearless writer horse" ... (or heart for that matter)

I denounce Hamas for killing Israeli civilians and for taking Gazans as hostages for months to achieve some political gains which are related to Hamas alone and not to the Palestinian cause or the Palestinian people. But the massacres in Gaza are war crimes of the worst proportions.

Michael Heart performs here like a true Hero.

WE WILL NOT GO DOWN (Song for Gaza)

(Composed by Michael Heart)

Copyright 2009




A blinding flash of white light
Lit up the sky over Gaza tonight
People running for cover
Not knowing whether they’re dead or alive


They came with their tanks and their planes
With ravaging fiery flames
And nothing remains
Just a voice rising up in the smoky haze


We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight


Women and children alike
Murdered and massacred night after night
While the so-called leaders of countries afar
Debated on who’s wrong or right


But their powerless words were in vain
And the bombs fell down like acid rain
But through the tears and the blood and the pain
You can still hear that voice through the smoky haze


We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight

Is Gaza an Occupied Territory

Is Gaza an Occupied Territory?




The U.N. position


In February 2008, Secretary-General Ban was asked at a media availability whether Gaza is occupied territory. "I am not in a position to say on these legal matters," he responded.


The next day, at a press briefing, a reporter pointed out to a U.N. spokesman that the secretary-general had told Arab League representatives that Gaza was still considered occupied.


"Yes, the U.N. defines Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem as Occupied Palestinian Territory. No, that definition hasn't changed," the spokesman replied.


Farhan Haq, spokesman for the secretary-general, told CNN Monday that the official status of Gaza would change only through a decision of the U.N. Security Council.

The Israeli Settlements


The international community has long recognized the unlawfulness of the Israeli settlements in the Occupied Territories. UN Security Council Resolution 465 (of 1 March 1980) called on Israel "... to dismantle the existing settlements and in particular to cease, on an urgent basis, the establishment, construction and planning of settlements in the Arab territories occupied since 1967, including Jerusalem".


However, the international community failed to take any measure to implement this resolution. Most Israeli settlements in the Occupied Territories were built after this resolution was passed, with the greatest expansion having taken place in the past decade. The establishment and expansion of settlements and related infrastructure in the West Bank is continuing on a daily basis, contrary to Israel's commitment under the UN-sponsored 2003 Roadmap peace plan. This week the Israeli government confirmed its plan to built 3,500 new settlement houses in the East Jerusalem area of the West Bank.


As well as violating international humanitarian law per se, the implementation of Israel's settlement policy in the Occupied Territories violates fundamental human rights provisions, including the prohibition of discrimination. The seizure and appropriations of land for Israeli settlements, bypass roads and related infrastructure and discriminatory allocation of other vital resources, including water, have had a devastating impact on the fundamental rights of the local Palestinian population, including their rights to an adequate standard of living, housing, health, education, and work, and freedom of movement within the Occupied Territories.

On the Issue of Identity

البيان الشاذ وقضية تعدد الانتماءات



صدر البيان التالي عن جهة تسمي نفسها بجبهة علماء الأزهر، وهي جمعية أهلية تم حلها عام 1999 لا تمثل الأزهر ولا علماءه، ولا تمثل سوى أعضاءها وهم قلة تنتهج كما سنرى في البيان نهجاً شاذاً أظن أنه يستهدف الشهرة والظهور الإعلامي.



فتوى في بيان بشأن الضابط المصري القتيل



إلى الضابط المصري البائس الذي ذهب في حظِّ سايكس بيكو وطاعة غير الله



لقد آلمنا أن يذهب مثلُكَ في طاعة غير الله بعد أن رفعت سلاحك في وجه شقيقك الفلسطيني الذي آوى إليك فرارا مما يلقى من عدوك وعدوه، على رجاء أن يجد منك ما كان يلقاه من أمثالك الغياري على شرف العروبة وعز الإسلام فإذا بك تشهر السلاح في وجهه فتقتله وأنت له ظالم طاعة لأوامر جائرة، وتعليمات فاجرة، فرخص دمُك، لأنه كما قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم لا طاعة في المعصية" وضاعت في الضلال حياتك، لأنك لاَعنْ عروبة كنت مدافعا،ولا لدين كنت عاملا، "والمسلم أخو المسلم، لايظلمه ولايخذله، بحسب امرئ من الشر أن يحقر أخاه المسلم كلُّ المسلم على المسلم حرام، دمه، وعرضه، وماله"، قتلت أخاك على حقه فذهب شهيدا، لأنَّ من قُتِل دون ماله فهو شهيد، ومن قتل دون عرضه فهو شهيد" ثم قُتِلْتَ أنت في غايةٍ رخيصة، هي الدفاع عن حدود وضع خطوطها الكافرون، الذين قسَّموا أرضنا بما عرف بالمجرمين سايكس بيكو، لينفردوا بنا واحدا بعد الآخر، وأرضنا في دين الله واحدة، فإذا بك تسقط فيما سقط فيه ساسة الحزب الذين حادوا الله ورسوله، فاستجاروا بأعدائهم من أوليائهم وإخوانهم،فذهبت حياتك في غير شرف، وقُتِلت قَتْلَ الصائل،


فقد أخرج النسائي واحمد بسند صحيح عن أبي هريرة قال: جاء رجل إلى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال: يارسول الله ،أرايتَ إنْ عُدِىَ على مالي؟ قال: "َانْشُدِ الله"، قال: فإن أَبواْ عليَّ؟ قال "انشُدِ الله"، قال: فإن أبوْا عليَّ، قال:"فانشُدِ الله"،قال :فإن أبوا عليَّ؟ قال صلى الله عليه وسلم" فقاتل، فإن قُتِلتَ ففي الجنة، وإن قَََتلْتَ ففي النار".

وعليه


:
فإننا نُحذِّر كّلَّ جنديٍّ وضابط من جنود مصر أن يخسروا شرفهم الفريد بأن يندفعوا في إطاعة الأوامر الصادرة إليهم بغير أن يعرضوها على دينهم وقلوبهم ،فإنه لاطاعة في المعصية، وليست حياة واحدٍ منكم بأغلى من حياة إخوانكم المستضعفين وغير المستضعفين الفلسطينيين، والمسلمون أمة واحدة، يسعى بذمتهم أدناهم، وهم يد على من سواهم" وحتى لاتخسروا الدنيا والآخرة


.

وإلى الموظفين من بعض الشيوخ الذين لايزالون يلزمون جانب الصمت، ويخرصون خرص القبور، فرضوا لعمائمهم أن تكون على أصنام، إنَّ سِمَنَ الكيس ونُبْلَ الذِّكرِ لا يجتمعان


.

وإلى دهاقين السياسة في مصر وغيرها :

مانال باذلٌ وجَهَهُ بسؤاله عِوَضاً ،ولو نالَ الغِنى بسؤاله

قُتِلْتَ أنت في غايةٍ رخيصة، هي الدفاع عن حدود وضع خطوطها الكافرون، الذين قسَّموا أرضنا بما عرف بالمجرمين سايكس بيكو

Unquote

حدود مصر ثابتة ومستقرة منذ عصر مينا موحد القطرين

بمعنى أن الحدود قد تتغير مؤقتاً

اتساعا نتيجة لغزو مصري كان يهدف لتحريك خطوط الدفاع للأمام



أو انحساراً نتيجة لغزو أجنبي



ولكنها تعود لنفس الخطوط بعد زوال السبب العارض

بما يؤكد ثبات واستقرار تلك الحدود



ومنذ ذلك الوقت وقبل اليهودية والمسيحية والإسلام بآلاف السنين تبلورت وترسخت الهوية المصرية



ومنذ ذلك الحين أيضاً وفلسطين هي البوابة الشرقية لمصر

وأهلها تربطنا بهم وشائج الحب والجيرة والدم والتصاهر



ومعظم الغزو الأجنبي على مصر جاء من تلك البوابة

فقوتها من قوتنا

وأهلها هم أهل لنا



يجب أن نتضامن مع أخوتنا في غزة بكل قوة

دون أن نفرط في أمننا القومي أو نفقد السيطرة على حدودنا أو أرضنا



أتمنى أن نتجنب النظرة الأحادية للأمور وألا ننجرف إلى المعارك الجانبية

إسرائيل دولة دينية عنصرية تستخدم وسائل الإرهاب والعقاب الجماعي واغتصاب الأراضي ومنع اللاجئين من العودة فهي دولة مارقة خارجة عن القانون الدولي



وحماس منظمة بدأت كمقاومة سلمية تعاطف معها العالم أجمع بما في ذلك الرأي العام داخل إسرائيل في انتفاضة الحجارة الأولي



والآن حماس ضلت طريقها وتمسك بأهل غزة رهينة

وتستخدمهم كدروع بشرية



الطرفان يتحملان جزءاً من دماء الجريمة





وأحيانا قد يقع بعضنا في حيرة ترتيب أولويات الانتماء

فالبعض يقول أنا مصري أولاً والآخر يقول أنا مسلم أو مسيحي أولاً

وفي رأيي هذا به خلط للأوراق



فتعدد الانتماءات في كل شخص شيء طبيعي

ولكن يجب أن نبحث عن موضوع النقاش حتى نحدد أي من الانتماءات له الأولوية في ذلك الموضوع



مثلاً



أنا أهلاوي أولاً عندما يتعلق الموضوع بماتش كورة في الدوري المصري



ومصري أولاً عندما يتعلق الموضوع بشيء سياسي أو شيء يمس وضعي كمواطن في دولة اسمها مصر



ومسلم أولاً أو مسيحي أولاً عندما يتعلق الموضوع بشيء ديني يمس علاقتي الشخصية بالخالق



وقد أكون مهندساً أولاً أو خبيراً في الإدارة أولاً عندما يتعلق الموضوع بشيء فني مهني أو إداري. فكوني مصرياً لن يجعلني أدلي برأي يخالف أصول المهنة أو المبادئ العلمية المتعارف عليها إذا سئلت للشهادة مثلاً في قضية حكومة مصر تكون أحد أطرافها



وأنا إنسان أولاً عندما يتعلق الموضوع بأمر يمس الإنسانية كلها مثلا حقوق الإنسان لا فرق فيها بين مصري وغير مصري



وهكذا


فتعدد الانتماءات بالطبع موجود



ولكن الأولوية تكون حسب الموضوع الذي نتحدث فيه



وعندما يأتي موضوع يمس حدود مصر وهي كيان سياسي أنتمي له أنا كمواطن



فأنا مصري أولاً



فتعدد الانتماءات إذاً وارد وطبيعي، وقد يرى بعضنا أنه ينتمي للأمة العربية

وآخرون يرون أنهم ينتمون للأمة الإسلامية

ولكن نسبة ليست صغيرة من المصريين لا يشعرون بمثل هذه الانتماءات العربية أو الإسلامية



وهذا طبيعي، لأن دائرة المركز في دوائر الهوية، وهي الدائرة التي نشترك جميعاً في الانتماء لها كمصريين، هي دائرة انتمائنا لمصر، الوطن الأم، وأساس المواطنة بين كل المصريين، هو المساواة بيننا جميعاً كمصريين، لا فرق في ذلك بين مسلم أو مسيحي أو غير متدين





وفي نفس الوقت



أهل فلسطين وخصوصاً أهل غزة هم جيران لنا

وهذه حقيقة جغرافية

وتربطنا بهم كجيران ما يربط الجيران ببعضهم البعض، من وشائج الدم والمصاهرة والارتباط العاطفي



وهم بشر ينتمون للإنسانية على اتساعها

وهم أيضاً عرب إلخ



فمن الطبيعي أن نتألم للجرائم التي تحاك ضدهم

سواء من إسرائيل



أو من حماس

التي تتخذهم كرهائن ودروع بشرية



وأن نهب لنجدتهم بكل الطرق

دون أن نفرط في أرضنا أو نعرض أمننا القومي للخطر

فنصرة الجار لا يجب أن تطغى على نصرة أهل البيت أو تنتقص من حقوقهم أو أمنهم



ودون أن نخوض مغامرات فاشلة تضرنا وتضرهم دون أن تحقق أي هدف



فالحكمة تقتضي أن نقوي أنفسنا حتى نستطيع أن نكون فاعلين على المستوى الدولي

فقوة مصر الداخلية هي حجر الأساس لقوتها على المستويات الإقليمية والعالمية



والقوة مقوماتها العلم والتقنيات والتقدم السياسي والإداري والاجتماعي والاقتصادي والثقافي إلخ



فيجب أن يكون هدفنا دائماً هو قوة وتقدم مصر حتى نستطيع أن ننفع أنفسنا والآخرين



فالمريض لن يستطيع أن يدافع عن نفسه فضلاً عن نصرة جيرانه أو أقربائه



ولابد أن نقوي مصر لنساعد أنفسنا وندافع عن وجودنا ووجود أبنائنا ونساعد الآخرين أيضاً في حدود المتاح

إضافة من الزميل رامي رءوف

تأسست جبهة علماء الأزهر في عام 1946 حتى عام 1995، وتلخصت أهدافها في استنهاض همة الأزهريين لاستعادة دور الأزهر، ومساندة الدولة بالدعوة إلى الله ونشر مبادئ الألفة والمحبة والإخاء، ومساندة الأزهر ومشيخته وجامعته فيما نيط بهم من نهوض بالوطن في مجال الثقافة الإسلامية الصحيحة. وفي عام 1996 ومع تولي الدكتور محمد سيد طنطاوي مشيخة الأزهر بدأ الصراع بين الجبهة والمشيخة، حيث رفض طنطاوي وجودها، بسبب معارضة الجبهة لبعض فتاويه، وقام شيخ الأزهر برفع عدة دعاوى قضائية حتى صدر حكم قضائي بحلها عام 1999، وعدم اعتبارها جمعية رسمية مشهرة بشكل قانوني.

لكن قبل عدة سنوات عادت جبهة علماء الأزهر إلكترونيا فقط عبر موقع لها اطلق من الكويت لإحياء نشاطها برئاسة الدكتور محمد عبد المنعم البري، وأمينها العام دكتور يحيى إسماعيل حبلوش، وعضوية بعض من علماء الأزهر، وانبرت لإطلاق فتاوى مناوئة لفتاوى دار الإفتاء الرسمية ... استكمل قراءة مقال رامي

http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=44757486141#/note.php?note_id=46871100495&ref=mf

جبهة علماء الأزهر إذن لا علاقة لها بالأزهر كمؤسسة من قريب أو بعيد


وهي مكونة من مجموعة من الذين ينسبون أنفسهم للأزهر

كما ذكر رامي



ولكن هناك مئات الآلاف أو الملايين الآخرين من خريجي الأزهر

وليس لهذه الجبهة أي وزن سوى في انتحالها اسم الأزهر وكلمة الجبهة التي توحي وكأن هناك تجمهر كبير من علماء الأهر بحيث يعبر عن الأزهر



وفي كل الأحوال الأزهر نفسه في حالة كبيرة من الضعف

فبعد أن خرج التيار الليبرالي المصري من رحم الأزهر في القرن التاسع عشر والعشرين

على أيدي شيوخ مستنيرين مثل الطهطاوي والعطار ورشيد رضا والإمام محمد عبده وسعد زغلول وطه حسين وعلى عبد الرازق


فاليوم الأزهر وزنه الفكري وتأثيره أصبح شبه معدوم نتيجة لتبعيته للدولة من ناحية ومحاربته للتجديد الفكري من ناحية أخرى


ولكنه لا زال يحتفظ بوزن تسويقي مؤثر كعلامة تجارية أو براند Brand رنان وخاصة خارج مصر.
