An Egyptian court today sentenced 21 people to death after they were involved in a riot following a football match, in which 74 people were killed. The violence during the match last year was the world's worst football related disaster in 15 years. Fans of al-Ahly, whose stands were attacked by rival club Al-Masry in the Mediterranean city of Port Said, had promised more violence if the accused did not receive death sentences. Families of the those killed during the disorder wailed in the courtroom as the judge gave the sentence.

"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches."
"Being is substance and life; life manifests by movement; movement is perpetuated by equilibrium; equilibrium is therefore the law of immortality.
"The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... "Equality for equals, inequality for unequals" that would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, "Never make equal what is unequal."
