Our dear son, allow us to assert to you that we do not hate our beloved country Egypt. Egypt is always inside our hearts, and we feel pained because it lacks democracy and human rights. No any other Egyptian writer has authored in terms of quality and quantity what we have written so far. We have suffered persecution by Mubarak because we love Egypt and want the best for it and want to save it from terrorist Wahabis and other criminals and thieves. We have to fled Egypt, but it will be always inside our mind, soul, and heart. We seek to introduce reform in Egypt within all levels, and we still have this glimmer of hope inside us. Egypt is never embodied by the enthroned pharaoh/traitor that enslaves its citizens; Egypt deserves a servant for it, not a ruler. We would like to advice you, our dear son, to differentiate between Egypt (the nation, the homeland, the country, the glorious civilization of seven millennia) and its pharaoh that oppress its people while being an obsequious servant or tool to Western powers. At first, we felt that Al-Sisi is a good person; we felt very happy when Morsi and Mubarak was deposed. But our hopes for Al-Sisi introducing any reform are dashed as he let us down; this is our personal opinion that might be proven wrong or true by the passage of years. We never meant to demonize Russia or to regret Putin's visit to Egypt; your accusations mean that you jump to conclusions because you have been looking for evidence to accuse us of anything negative. We advise you, our dear son, never to be fanatic in your political views and never to readily accuse others of being traitors because they have views that differed from your own, as long as those others do not impose their views on anyone and never persecute, torture, or murder anyone. Political views are bound to be different among people as they are relative opinions depending on the angle through which one is looking at a certain issue or topic. Our son, Sherif, was sentenced to two-year term of imprisonment in Cairo because of his jihad for the sake of Egypt. When he had discussed his M.A. thesis in Boston University and when he was honored in Tufts University, the flag of Egypt was behind him. When he or ourselves attend a conference, Americans utter words of praise of Egypt and Egyptians, and this is our endeavors for Egypt's sake during our stay in Washington and Virginia. What did Egypt's pharaohs offered to it but begging money from the Gulf monarchies as subservient to them? Please, our dear son, be gentle with your words directed to us, because you have deeply hurt our feelings. May God forgive you and forgive us.
