On the 3rd of august 27th the trial of the former president of egypt Hosni Mubarak for corruption and ordering the killing of protesters began in cairo. Along with mubarak in the cage where his 2 sons and demand his former interior minister and 6 x. Police commanders. But lets say you ought. To know. What was the 83 year old former dictator thinking all in the courtroom that day. Was he perhaps reviewing the journey through life that had brought him to this place. On. New years eve 2000 the world comes together to celebrate the coming year millennial. Put it comes the hope of new beginnings. But not in my. List then 3 months. Egypt had already celebrated something rather different. And yet tried that for me. 3 election of president Hosni Mubarak for the 4th time. What a contrast from his promise 18 years. Previous. Number. In his 1st speech when he became president for the 1st time he said that he wouldnt stand for more than 2 terms. That his speeches wouldnt last longer than 20 minutes but his wife wouldnt appear in the media and unlike others buildings on public monuments wouldnt be named after. This a you want to show you how to implement it better that. The president that took office in 1008 to one was a totally different person from he who was in control in 1990. And waterboard the promises that timi back in those early days of. All. Of them were forgotten. That. The battle of the people around him would all say you are leaving what would we do without you you have to stay there this pressure was not just from the hypocrites around him but also for a bus family i dont mean his close relatives but more the honest broker less people surrounding the need for mrs initially chose him to keep mrs lowder in the background. Yet in the 1st years of his push to see. Did tended to minor activities which were accepted by the general public the princess of wales was accompanied by the wife of the egyptian president mrs bush then a stamp went by she became more and more. She was ambitious to be center stage. They didnt advertise your white but Suzanne Tebbit no. Suzanne mubarak was huff which. Her mother coming from the tiny coal mining village of fun to protect. Me parma the daughter of a humble coal miner never lived to see this moment. Meeting Queen Elizabeth as egypts firstly. Could life get any better than davis. In 1930 just says her husband embarked on his 2nd term suzanne too was emboldened to start her 1st major public project. But eating for all resulted in millions of books being distributed to the egyptian public that little cost over the following 17 years the only catch the president s wife was on the back of instead of the off. Here. She had the passion for art and music in particular classical western arabic music where. She was a good reader who had obtained a masters in sociology at the American University in cairo. The history of terms. As our president being more and more power his wife created her own court surrounding herself with ministers and top. She had no status within the constitution she was just the president s wife but it was almost like the 1st lady left the 1st ladys back your presence was amazing in yesterdays speech the speech was excellent egyptians are hypocritical to whoever is in power with that has a little of that the end up being turned into little dictatorships that will. And this to you star has words is truly also. Why Suzanne Mubarak called the spotlight an eldest son now. Was a changed man. With his bachelor days behind him he was no also a father. Baby muhammad named after his grandfather had the right in 1907 to charm the president and perhaps to remind him of a happy childhood he himself never enjoyed. Them. How madonna was always playing with a toy pistol. If officials walked in they would have to play with mohammed and act dead when he shot them. But of course and with. If he didnt fall mohammed would get very angry. This happened once when a senior official came to visit the president. Could be a bomber took aim and fired the man looked at him and smiled he looked at his grandfather and asked why he didnt die. The president of the demand and said why didnt you die lie down youre dead and the more. The president and his grandson were playing. The president. Was playing his escape. And the plaything the influence his name could carry throughout. With a weapon. In the late eightys began expanding into partnerships that many businessmen regarded as dubious most but again about. The 2nd there was no reference to his name in any of these partnerships. The acceptable form of words was to call him facilitator. As he had the ability to influence ministers to facilitate the work. He. Made. Some of the stories in egypt about business conducted by mubaraks sons became a lawful matter and there is in fact a famous joke an owner of a cafe had photos of all the 3 president s talk to. A guy walks into the cafe and asks who these guys are all know on cers this is not either of the 1952 revolution president s. War and this is the father of my business partner. Was accumulating wealth and influence in his own country his. Wasnt exactly his he learned. Where he had been since then the 1980 s. What he may have been doing behind this and the unsubstantiated rumors of Money Laundering right publicly it was simply bank of americas chief. But it seems he was biding his time for greater things that could. Have been to london a few times and he invited me to dinner at a restaurant behind. What. He was very keen on internal egyptian politics and would ask or comment on a number of issues. I really felt this is where his interest in Public Affairs that. June 2000. President and the birth of the 1st republican didnt state in the history of the add a book. City is half is a lesser died after 3 decades. d smeared on a shot at. A deli messier its. A lot of b. S. We didnt days of discussion of the syrian core situation had been amended to allow his 34 year old son bush the ophthalmologist to become president. The movie. Where syria. Others were inspired to full. Agreement. With the president bashar assad to power after his late father. Was preparing his son Saddam Hussein was preparing his sons a day or. Was preparing his son see him and now. So became a trend of succession in the region this motivated as a wife and mother. And. For Susan Mubarak it was like a light had been switched off. The chosen one would be here youngest son who i know had returned from london not only should he be thrust forward to succeed his father in due course but the brilliance of the scheme would mean that a new president. Would have no interest in prosecuting the mistakes of the old president Hosni Mubarak. It could all be. Flawed world i live and get my for him Suzanne Mubaraks insistence on the triumph of the succession project wasnt just political of him and it was as much about her maintaining her social status. Move the shifting from the president s wife to becoming the president s mother. Similar to the queen mother then that i am now a month from our work and there was an important psychological factor here true that in so much as suzanne saw herself is the woman made a success of and she was now preparing another mubarak her son. The 1st step in getting manners eventually elevation to the presidency was for him to join the only National Democratic party which if nothing else was not the democratic nor national. From the outset imagine began to maneuver easily to quality in the pocket in less than 2 years the excellent banker was head of the n. D. P. Politburo a powerful committee specially created for. All of the going out of his father respected his intelligence claiming that he had finished his exams in a shorter time than movement which meant he saved a whole year his father really thought he was clever and generally respected his opinion. Having taken over the party the genius son also assumed responsibility for his fathers office. But only we know how to get to the president was to go mad. But there was still. The president himself was showing no signs of wanting to step aside in favor of his boy. Out of the authorities from what had order initially he was against his son succeeding him not so much out of concern for the country but more because he was generally selfish and wanted to remain in power to the extent that he once said what would i do if i left presidency chop onions how the heart of mustard. Whatever material things like that what that means movember 2003. Dishonest. As the president spoke in parliament he collapsed. Line on. Egyptian Television Oprah largely cut away from the moment but the act was quite literally falling apart. Then just over 6 months later he failed it again. This time he traveled to munich in germany for back surgery. It was raining it was terrible. Because he was in such a severe pain he couldnt walk. He was really really suffering and and his situation was like the weather. Is one and a half hour surgery was completely on event for and the president was on the road to recovery. But as he did cooper a kid in his german hospital room or circulated in egypt that he had died on the operating table. It was simple enough for obama to put paid to the stories by making a Television Appearance but he was also anxious to get back on. This was always my impression that he wanted to go back to egypt as quick as possible to show that hes ok and then i remember the 1st thing in the days after the operation. This goodness to walk as much as possible and to walk stance i remember this because he said i want to leave as quick as possible but i will not leave if im not able to walk down the gangway from the. To show that im. Back again and fit. Within days of his return mubarak was clearing to act the strongman again. He shuffled his cabinet introducing new faces most of them businessmen and members of the mans n. D. P. Party. In the streets of cairo we called it. Mubaraks cat but who framed them was a hard as the new generation came on the scene his son his sons friends and a small group of businessmen everything began to change it was like an old man passing the speeding wheel to his son leaving us all to crash it had been acquitted of a. Mans ambitious agenda for seizing power from his aging father was getting more obvious. As the time approached for another president ial election in 2005 some said it was the moment for government to make his move. But the old man was not going to go without a fight my art well for our white house. To do that kind of subtle messages from his father to us for. A while wasnt really ready. And that he needed to stay with that bunch but if i go back if there was one kind of constant threat. With the bark there was this kind of sense that he was irreplaceable. Only he understood egypt only he could manage egypt and i think that even these kind of subtle messages about son were kind of part and parcel of his indispensability to to ruling egypt should stop. In. September 2005 and the president who had once promised to stay for only one term was camp. Painting for his 5th in office. And he also had a further surprise for the electorate. This time thanks to a cool situation changed they were allowed to vote for other people. The trouble was that the rules were sort of natural that only nonentities could stand against the man who had ruled our country for a quarter of a century. No one was surprised when his new mubarak one eye lens right. For the 1st lady plans for a smooth succession for her son so that she could progress to 1st mother may have been temporarily frustrated. But the reality was that she still dominated the project that was the mubarak presidency. Then she settled on none of the dishes planned. Or obsession with winning the Nobel Peace Prize to the extent that she supported his appointment to nisco so as to help get her the prize if you will. Than it was the women m. P. s movement so she could get the nobel prize she traveled the world making speeches receiving whatever prizes she could. She created reading for all she visited children i mean she did everything but none of it was spontaneous it was all done for the purpose of furthering her personal glory that. America is sure it was below. Them who knows what did you grow. And dia most of inspired Suzanne Mubarak to believe that she could possibly be a candidate for a Nobel Peace Prize. But what was certain by 2008 was that her husband now approaching his 80th birthday was increasingly isolated as his wife and his son protected him from uncomfortable truths. The president didnt always receive all the information that he should have he just got told stuff that wouldnt upset him if it was something that may disturb him we were usually told not to tell him just to make sure he was always in a good mood. I couldnt believe it when the film the president shared came to the movie theaters of each of them unless im sad because i ordered. A book and they loved each was a huge hit and the talk of the streets and i. Were talking about. Them in a chemical politically on ice everyone knew that although the producers said it was a fiction this was really the true story of an isolated president comes like a nice guy whose only reliable informant about what was going on in the country was an un important function. Of people who go on to come across. As either the course of the falcons are shrinking. In the film he was a ship. In reality he was muhammad i shoot the president personally make a bomb just. Rubble down on the campus on the way how would he say it and when that man woke up he was like im master so no one could laugh talk or say anything to him. In the car but everyone was serious. And it was as if we were. It was. So i was the one who would speak to him tell them a few jokes make him laugh until he would then Start Talking about Politics State affairs or just generally socializing. Oh my limited going to im sure in. America. In the movie the fictional president s henchman fire in his shift because of his relationship with the. North. Korea life then mirror got a year after the film was released i sure was removed by mubaraks. They realized that i began talking to him about some relationship. Including his son succession. To them i appeared to be dangerous. When i received a call from the minister of information saying that. You will no longer see the president. But it continued as if nothing had changed with the. 2 countries. That said it was more a
