CRIME IN THE COURT OF JUSTICE! (May your
soul rest in peace Marwa) In the Name of Justice In the Name of Humanity In the Name of Freedom And that of PEACE In the Name of Rights In the Name of Civilization In the Name of Dignity And that of Equality In the Name of Honour What on
Earth is committed! BRUTALITY has shown its ugly Face And where was that? In Dresden
in the Court of Justice! Marwa was simply an ELEGANT BEAUTIFUL SOUL Who stood up for her RIGHTS! This poem is dedicated to the Mrs. Marwa El-Sherbini who was killed in a German court in Dresden by a racist man in early July 2009.

ETHICS
IN CRISIS
ECONOMY IN CRISIS
By Hala El-Banna
When ethics was in crisis
Some time ago,
Nobody bothered much
It was no ones concern
No big deal, they'd say!
Nobody could see it coming
No one could relate
As if humans were transformed "Robots"
Brain washed "Economics"
Forgetting that the true solid base
Of any progress on Earth
Be it economy, politics whatever is on
Ethics, credibility,
Trust and honour
A simple basic fact, I'd say
