يتعين على البشر وضع حد للحرب ، أو الحرب ستضع حداً للبشرية
Although Chess is a game of war it is featured by not a single drop of blood is shed ;on the contrary chess has many values that we crucially need in this turbulent world which is full of hatred , ill bigotry, division and violence ;In chess people learn to respect their minds and others too ;and also to respect their differences and be compassionate towards one another as we are all human beings ; in chess there are beautiful values such as:Peace ,love , tolerance and wisdom .
We need to accelerate the publicity of the game in the world and especially in the developing countries such as our beloved country :Egypt ....I hope my dream comes true soon....

'Some Men See Things As They Are And Say Why ? I Dream Things That Never Were And Say Why Not ?" Senator Robert Kennedy :A Tribute To My Hero


بعض الرجال يرون الأشياء كما هي و يتساءلون لماذا ؟ أن أحلم بأشياء لم تكن أبداً كائنة و أتساءل لم لا ؟
Robert Francis "Bobby" Kennedy (November 20, 1925 – June 6, 1968), also referred to by his initials RFK, was an American politician, a Democratic Senator from New York, and a noted civil rights activist. An icon of modern American liberalism, he was a younger brother of President John F. Kennedy and acted as one of his advisers during his presidency. From 1961 to 1964, he was the U.S. Attorney General.Following his brother John's assassination on November 22, 1963, Kennedy continued to serve as Attorney General under President Lyndon B. Johnson for nine months. In September 1964, Kennedy resigned to seek the U.S. Senate seat from New York, which he won in November. Within a few years, he publicly split with Johnson over the Vietnam War.In March 1968, Kennedy began a campaign for the presidency and was a front-running candidate of the Democratic Party. In the California presidential primary on June 4, Kennedy defeated Eugene McCarthy, a fellow U.S. Senator from Minnesota. Following a brief victory speech delivered just past midnight on June 5 at The Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles, Kennedy was assassinated by Sirhan Sirhan. Mortally wounded and unconscious, he survived for nearly 26 hours, dying early in the morning of June 6.(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_F._Kennedy)
Immediately following the Requiem Mass, his body was transported by a special private train to Washington, D.C. Thousands of mourners lined the tracks and stations along the route, paying their respect as the train passed (in an attitude that has never done before to any politician in the world) as in the following video:

Rest in peace Bobby.God Bless Your Soul my hero !
