We Take Pride in Being an American Citizen Published in April 18, 2016 Translated by: Ahmed Fathy Question: … You are biased for American policies in the Middle East and you are an American agent against Egypt, helping the USA with all its plots and conspiracies against Egypt … Where is your belonging to Egypt and your religion?!

Firstly:

1- We are not an American agent; we are simply an American citizen now, and getting citizenship means to swear or be faithful and loyal to the USA. Being and American citizen does not stop us from criticizing the Mercian policies and exposing its negative policies in the Middle East; we still do this since 2002 as a political asylee before getting the citizenship in 2014 and we continue to do so now. Being an American citizen does not contradict the fact that we bear our beloved homeland Egypt inside our heart, as a source of pain, nor does it contradict our defense of Islam (i.e., Quranism) against those who have tarnished its great name. The USA opened its arms to embrace us and many other persecuted ones. The only difference is that there are corrupt ad people who conspire against the USA, like Wahabis, the terrorist MB, etc. and there are those who repaid the USA for its hospitality by defending it through intellectual endeavors, like ourselves. To side with the USA is to side with all higher values like religious freedom, freedom of expression, democracy, and justice for all. These are Quranic values as well of real Islam (i.e., Quranism) that we proselytize among the Muhammadans in the West and in the Middle East. These are the values we have preached and called for within the last 4 decades until now, and because of our reformist endeavors and peaceful intellectual jihad, the Muhammadans have persecuted us and we had to immigrate to the USA as a political asylee, to imitate early believers in the 7th century who fled religious persecution by coming to the Christian nation of Ethiopia, during Muhammad's lifetime.

2- There is a difference between American foreign policies (that care for the interests and welfare of its nation) and the American people. Most American citizens are frank, kind-hearted, friendly, polite, and respect-worthy. Most American citizens despise politics, politicians, and their country's foreign policies of hegemony.

3- Even within the American foreign policies (of Obama) that we loathe, we say the following important point: if Egyptians and the rest of all Arabs were not weak, not powerful, strong nations would have dared to control them and interfere in their affairs. Let us as Arabs stop blaming the West for everything. Colonialist powers, the EU, and the USA are making use an taking advantage of Arabs' weakness and divisions, and all of these parties never created such weakness and divisions of Arab countries. such weakness and divisions are created by Arabs centuries ago within their earthly, man-made, fabricated religions of the Muhammadans (Sufis, Sunnites, and Shiites). Thus, weak Arab countries have granted a free invitation for others to control them by proxy; within tyrant rulers who rule Arabs by virtue of rigged elections or tyrant kings who have ascended their thrones without elections. When peaceful intellectual thinkers and reformers like ourselves have called for human rights, religious freedom, justice, and religious reform to return to real Islam (i.e., Quranism) and to reject falsehoods, we have been accused of apostasy and being an infidel. Preachers of the Truth have been driven out of Egypt and all Arab countries by tyrannical rulers supported by weak, oppressed citizens, who gleefully have watched extremist Sunnite Salafists and Wahabis persecute Quranists without any pangs of conscience.

4- The launch of any reformist endeavors is the right diagnosis of the malady or ailment. The ailment goes on with the wrong remedy and the false diagnosis. Among false narratives is the one about the West countries conspiring against Egypt and all Arabs. Indeed, the West might conspire against the powerful countries (e.g., Russia, China, Japan, etc.) and not the Arab countries of the Muhammadans, whose obsequious rulers receive orders of the West and are so eager to please the West. No superpower conspire against its servants!

Lastly:

  We take pride in being an American citizen; we have had enough disgrace, humiliation, and shame during our lifetime in Egypt, when the Mubarak regime used to persecute and incarcerate us upon receiving orders from the Saudi embassy in Cairo! Within the USA, we felt that our human dignity is restored as a political asylee, years before we have become an American citizen, and we have felt how much we have been deprived of our rights in Egypt and how enormous the injustices we have suffered in the 1980s and the 1990s because of the KSA and the Mubarak regime. God bless the USA.
