Hi guys,
I'm so happy to talk with arab guys from over the world, I'm palestenian 48 (Arab-Israeli).. I have just finished my third year in Tel-Aviv university.. really it is a great university... in the next year I will start my MD-PhD program.. Inshallah...
As known.. Israeli universities attribute a great importance for research... and many americans come to Israel for studying, specially medicine.. as a result there are tow programs here in Tel-Aviv University.. one for americans and one for israeli students...
i just want to know more about studying in the arab countries..
ma3 7obbi..
Hoooba said:Welcome DNA-Sackler
Good luck with your training. I was just wondering what the defintion of an Arab-Isreali is? I've heard that term before but I am not sure what it means
Monette said:I also wasn't sure but found the following link:

Cheers,

Is it used to apply to a university in the US?
And by achieving a high score ,can it secure you some sort of partial scholarship to a particular med school program.
I'm sorry for posting this here; I was hoping to get some help from my Arab brothers here.

Shobra said:I obviously did not. I am away fromt the country. However, my father is there and I think he voted for Mubarak only because he doesn't know anything about the rest of the candidates.
If Osama El Baz or Amr Moussa had run, I would have voted for them. I believe that we need a carizmatic person who knows what he is doing/talking about. And so far, there isn't any one like that. So, let's just stick with Mubarak for the time being. My 2 cents...

adagio said:Dear Brothers :
I am Syrian , studying medicine in damascus university , it is a real pleasure meeting you - colleagues of the future and forever brothers in arms - i hope we can start a real society here on studentdoctor forums that may convey a new approach for the usual occidental man to contemplate in our culture ...
i believe that differences among nations ( eastern or western ) are necessary , just like colors are needed to make our life more interesting , however , these varieties in culture do not shut the door for civilised conversation between us ... humans in first degree ... people of our countries in second ...
Thank you for your time devoted to read my post , and may peace flourish among you all
Shobra said:I have no problem with what you said (except maybe the origin of the word "masary," I'm not sure about that. I believe it's short for "masareef").
Anyways, I don't care for Mubarak, and I don't think any of the above posts do. It's easy to assume that most of those who would vote for Mubarak are brainwashed. However, as we mentioned, this is not the case. The problem is that, as we also mentioned above, there is no one else. He is the "least worst." You are talking about an Islamic state. Fine. Could you tell us then who we should vote for?! What's his name?
I believe that the word "brainwashed" is easy to use for labelling anyone who just would vote for Mubarak for apparent reasons. Don't make the big mistake of thinking that others "just don't get it". I believe there's much more to it.
I don't like Mubarak, and I don't like that he's been running the country for almost my age. I am willing to vote for someone who can make things better, if such a person existed...
Peace!!!
STUCKinUCR said:ya akhi el 3azeez, this is why you should not vote for Mubarak. There needs to be a precedent for change in the country. The economy is stagnating, the army does nothing but '2az2az lip,' the cost of everything is going up, we are making no progress with comparasin to the other arabic nations. Therefore, we need to vote for ANYONE else besides mubarak to initiate the change in the society. WE, as in Educated egyptians, need to be positive forces of change in the country, and we do that one step at a time. Do you really know what Ayman Nour or Naumaan Gom3aa would have done with the country? No, and we probably never will, but the fact remains in that we do know what Mubarak did, and it wasnt much. Give change a chance, and it will be surprising what comes out. And as for an Islamic state, i brought that into the conversation to point out how far we are from an islamic state anywhere in the middle east, not that any of the candidates were going to institute anything close to that
Hoooba said:Let's be realistic. Both Ayman Nour and Nuamaan Gom3aa probably weren't going to be that much better than Mubarak. Mubarak has already stole so much that he's probably "shab3an". On the other hand, Nour and Gom3aa are new to the game and may be a little hungry still. Evenmore, we all know that Ayman Nour was supported by the USA (and probably Israel). This means that he would be pushing an American agenda in the middle east. Like I said in my previous post, Mubarak is the least worst
STUCKinUCR said:i agree with everything u said except for the fact that mubarak is the least worst. we know how bad mubarak is, the other two are relative unknowns. so u cant say mubarak is the least worst cuz u dont for sure. on the other hand the benefits that would come from voting neone else is simple. mubarak has had the throne for 24 years, plus this term, plus his son, gamal, who looks like he will take power after him. and you cant deny mubarak also has a strong influence on Mubarak, which makes the pushing america point invalid. el sha3b need some radical change to get out of this funk we've been in.
u agree?
futurdentist said:Mubarak In My Eyes:
1. 24 years in power and he is till interested in being president:
a. He wants to stay in power until his son takes over.
b. He knows if he is not in power some dangerous files will be opened (elfadaye4 hateb2a 3 elmala2)
c. He is definitely not shab3an walla 4aga and he can't take enough!
2.A 77 year old who is still interested in presidency:
A guy his age can't even tolerate his wife commenting on the suit he's wearing, how can he tolerate any kind of public criticism or even suggestions.
3.Achievments????What achievements?? I don't think we needed 24 long years to have electricity, more schools, and an underground system. These things should have taken no more than 12 years, if we want to think of them as achievments.
4.The longer a person is in power and the more power he has, the more corrupt he becomes. Imagine how corrupt this guy could be with absolute power for 24 years!!
5.Ligitimacy? What kind of ligitimacy?A very small % has actually voted for him aslan, the rest is fabraka! Even when he claimed we would have a real elections , it was a circus!
I guess in my eyes HE IS THE WORST candidate.
Maybe the following websites would be interesting to some of you:

STUCKinUCR said:Walahy i agree with you completely, but i feel the sha3b el masry is also somewhat to blame. everyone is sooooo sick of the way the country is going that they dont trust the votes, and that is why someone like mubarak is going to get 88 percent of the vote, because only like 5% of the people voted. so if the other 95 percent had voted, maybe we could have seen something happen.
