question:
President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi  has once again threatened to crush the militants.
âThe armed forces and the police will avenge our martyrs and restore security and stability with the utmost force in the coming period â  he  said after Fridayâs carnage.
 Sisi  has called for a comprehensive campaign to counter what  he  describes as the existential threat of radical jihadism  deploying moderate clerics to promote moderate Islam  for instance.
 He  is expected to run for a second term early next year. Even with a convincing win   he  will face pressure to deliver on promises of stability  especially if attacks like that on  Al Rawdah  persist.
In a December 2016 issue of al-Nabaa  one of the groupâs religious leaders left little doubt that Sufis would be targeted. It mentioned  Al Rawdah  directly.
answer:
Abdel Fattah al-Sisi


question:
David Allen  owner of A&M Auctioneers and Appraisers   never quite knows what’s going to turn up from the old homes and shops of the Eastern Shore.
Once   he  said   he  came across a box of wooden and metal washboards from an old general store  100 years old and looking new.
 Allen  said this was the first time  he  had come across a KKK robe as part of an estate.
 Allen  told  her  the auction house was contractually bound to sell all the items from the estate — including the robe. But together with the seller   he  arranged to donate proceeds from its sale toward college costs for one of  his  employees  whom  he  described as an immigrant from Nigeria studying in the United States.
“We didn’t really want it publicized ”  Allen  said. But the solution was “something that we feel was fair ”  he  said  given the item’s legacy.
 Allen  said that under the terms of the auction house’s contract   he  couldn’t reveal the buyer or the seller. But  he  said the robe  which sold Feb. 7 during the online auction  went for about $1 300.
“Take it or leave it  it’s a piece of history ”  Allen  said.
answer:
David Allen


question:
"It's important for Russia and China to cultivate a community that respects and understands the cultures of both countries " Pavlova said.
 Pavlova was satisfied with the bulletin boards on which students wrote their feelings about learning Chinese. Chinese motifs such as bamboos were drawn beside texts.
 The students not only learned the Chinese language  but also Chinese politics  economics and cultures as well  Pavlova said.
 The upcoming Year of Chinese Language in Russia would extend the fruits of the reciprocal national theme years (last year was Year of the Russian Language in China)  and would strengthen cultural and educational cooperation between the two countries and thus create favorable circumstances for Russia's young people to learn Chinese language and culture  Pavlova said.
 "Both the teachers and students are eager to take part in the colorful events to be held within the framework of the Year of Chinese Language " she said.
 The school planned to launch a festival of Chinese language and culture in April as part of its contribution to the language year  Pavlova said. Students from 15 schools in Moscow would be invited to the occasion.
 The students were vigorously preparing for the Chinese language contest for elementary and high school students in Moscow as well as the all-Russian Chinese writing contest  while the teachers were scheduled to attend a seminar on Chinese language teaching at Moscow State University  she said.
 Pavlova said she was looking forward to taking her students to various activities  including exhibitions on Chinese language  universities  movies and literature  and a performance of the Beijing People's Art Theater  a famed Chinese drama troupe.
