Home Page http://www.photocamiz.it City Rome State Italy Country Italy Comments: I am more than glad to have found your website. As an old Italian from Alexandria I would like to take the advantage of your web site to remember a person who was a great friend of my father. His name was Vito Latis. He was from a Jewish family of Modena (Italy). His grand father had been a famous surgeon and doctor of the Khedive Ismail, and had been one of the founders of the Egyptian Croissant Rouge. He was an engineer and before world war II he had worked in Iraq and in Palestine. In particular in Haifa he directed the works for the construction of the "Casa del Fascio". For this reason, in spite of his being a Jew, he had been imprisoned by the British and had been prisoner with my grandfather Baron Costanzo Cantoni (who was not Jew) in a camp in Tanta. After the war, having inherited, he retired and used to live as a joyeux viveur. He was the owner of a yellow convertible Studebaker, and I remebre him driving alonmg the Corniche. Perhaps someone of those who lived in Alexandria at the end of the 50s still remembers that car. He lived in Boulevard Sultan Hussein, 52, at the ground floor and his garden was adjacent to an Egyptian boys school whose director was a brother to Gamal abd el Naser. The school boys did continuously disturb him and he was always arguing with the brother of Nasser. Eventually, around 1963/64 he left Egypt. My father helped him to find a job in a company engaged in the cosntruction of a high-way near Bologna. But he was old and ill. Finally he retired he underwent a series of surgical amputations to a leg. He used to live in an hotel in Milan. One day at the hotel arrived an Egyptian delegation led by the brother of Nasser. They recognised each other and hugged crying. I saw him for the last time in my life in Milan at the end of the 60s. He then left to Israel (he had a brother in Jerusalem) and died a few months later in an hospital in Jerusalem. He has been a gerat friend and I would like to remember him to those of the Jews of Alexandria who may have known him and may still have memory of him. Roberto Camiz
City Roslyn State New York Country United States Comments: Hello, I am a Karaite Jew, born in Cairo in July of 1964. I was delivered into this world by my father Dr Youssef Lichaa. After the ten day war In 1967 Nasser threw all the remaining Jewish men over the age of 16 in prison and held them there for three years. This caused unbelievable suffering for my family and the families of the Jews still in Egypt. Thank _od we have people that keep these memories alive. I try and tell my children about where I came from and how it led me to a better life in the United States. I appreciate the website!

City None State None Country Switzerland Comments: I have a 1/2 Egyptian baby and I am glad you are keeping the roots of Egypt alive. Hopefully no one will be able to destroy and/or suffocate the Civilization which has lived there since the Beginning: Pharaos, Jewishes, Copts, .... Unfortunately up to today non-Islamic people and Community are still oppressed, and the Pharaonic Civilization used for touristic/economical purposes only (not really appreciated). Hopefully full Democracy and Human Rights and Recognition of the Origin will be applied there, too. I hope this. I trust this will happen! Light & Love & Power.

City Los Angeles State California Country USA Comments: I enjoyed the site. I was born in Khartoum, Sudan. My grandfather Shalom Hakim was the founder of the Jewish Community of Sudan. He is buried in Omdurman, Sudan. Wish one day could bring his remains to be buried in Israel. I grew up in Israel, and came to the US to study and remained here where I earned a degree in Aeronautical Engineering. Worked as an Aerospace Engineer and Space Engineer/Scientist. However, when called upon I left my position where I worked at the time and went to Israel to help them develop their fighter plane the Kfir and Lavi. I am currently retired and active in Sephardic music. I am the founder and director of Kol Sephardic Choir. We are about to produce a professional CD, the first of its kind ever. You can visit our website if you like Ladino Music. The website is: http://www.kolsephardicchoir.com . We are much better than the music you will hear on the website, since that music was not a professional recording. Anyone interested in the music can contact me.

City Heliopolis near Cairo State Egypt Country Egypt Comments: Very interesting site, unfortunately for me I cannot be of any help for jews of Egypt, since I was born in 1956 and had only one classmate jew in the college de la Sainte famille (peres jesuites) of Cairo. His name was Selim Ratib and we only new he was jew after he left the country. However my father georges gamil, was associated with albert amiga until 1964, the year of the nationalisation of their common asset (magasins mabrouk). He also had when he was young a girlfriend named Rachel Lisbona, I met her with my dad in Drancy near paris in 1981 or 82. No news about her brother who remained in cairo, baptised coptic orthodox. Their was also another one called Eskinazy but he was older. I also knew 2 jewish university classmates Joyce benjamen & Fernand Cohen but they too were older. By the way, you probably got it, I'm christian. when I read a message signed Albagli, I remember my mom (french) had a friend she referred to as madame Albagli. Thank you for this site which gave me a good hour of pleasure pushing me back to the lovely egypt and wonderfull cosmopolitan heliopolis of my childhood, when ladie going to the market near cinema Normandie used to speak a mixture of franco-arabe, ya habaybee, c'etait vrrrrraiment le bon temps mesh keda. Before I leave the net I send my best wishes to all of you not forgetting our moslem compatriots who participated in the site from alexandria or Cairo and the christian coptic too. PS. I found your site haphazardly! Bye. .
City Hamburg State Hamburg Country Germany Comments: Suzy (Sultana)'s story was very moving. I really liked the vivid way she described her impressions. I won't ever visit Egypt because I have no illusions about what Egyptians really think about Jews. Still it is a pleasure to read such good descriptions of today's Egypt and I hope to find more of that on this very interesting homepage

City San Francisco State CA Country USA Comments: Eman's post (dated 2-4-09) repeats the classic nonsense that many Egyptians spout about Israel: she says that only those Jews who are loyal to Egypt are welcome there. Ironically, that's exactly what many Muslims want. According to Eman, only those Jews who are willing to live as a minority within larger Islamic societies, who are willing to surrender their right to govern themselves and the right to self-determination, and who wish to be told what to do or not to do by Muslims, are welcome in Egypt. But the minute they start demanding to be on an equal footing with Muslims, the welcome mat gets pulled out from under them. Eman's post reinforces the truth about the Israeli-Arab conflict: 22 Arab states are unwilling to tolerate even one Jewish one.
